|You know I’ve seen that look before
Inside, you're all alone
Looking for the perfect one
Has left you on your own
You think you're running out of time
The time is on your side
Just when you think it's out of reach
It's right before your eyes
Somewhere in the night
Love's gonna find you
You won't have to cry another tear
You don't have to try so hard this time, girl

Somewhere In The Night is an unidentified pop rock song from an 80s mix by NeonBlue

Background and Search

Somewhere In The Night was originally posted on WatZatSong by user gymforma on November 27th, 2020, and gained popularity in 2023.[1] A slowed sample of the beginning to Giorge Pettus's song "One Time Affair"[2] featured at the end of the snippet, suggested that the song was from a mix. This also indicates that Somewhere In The Night was pitch-edited, as confirmed by the fact that in the discovered mix, the track directly before SITN, Something by Lava, was sped up by 15 BPM and pitched F# major, instead of the original E♭ major key.[3]

It's unclear when or how it was discovered, but searchers on Discord eventually connected the snippet to a YouTube channel called NeonBlue80. NeonBlue was accused of knowing the song and artist and purposefully hiding it from searchers, but in a later comment, he clarified that he simply doesn't remember the song title and does not care about the search.[4] NeonBlue claims that he got the song from a blog.[5]

On June 13th, 2024, the full original mix created by NeonBlue containing Somewhere In The Night was discovered, titled "Funk speed".[6] It was found on Dailymotion and uploaded by user funky_vinyls_records.[7] Another unidentified song was discovered among the songs in the mix, and the remaining tracks were from various countries, including Italy, Canada, Denmark, Norway, and the United States, dating from 1983 to 1989.[8]

Leads

Possible

  • Alannah Myles[9]: Suggested due to similar vocals and musical style

Debunked

  • Phyllis Rhodes: In June 2024, Phyllis Rhodes, former lead singer of the band Saint Tropez, was seriously considered as the singer due to her similar voice.[10] Reddit user AltariaBoy contacted Rhodes, who initially believed the song was created by AI using her voice.[11] She did, however, suggest that it could be one of her demos that was never released due to legal or contractual issues,[12] however it was not found and the lead was debunked.[13]
  • Renee Vaccaro / Wild Blue: The band and its singer were suggested due to similar vocals and musical styles, but according to q, this lead has been ruled out.
  • Billy Clift - Somewhere In The Night[14]: Not the same song[15]
  • Cherry Cherry: Suggested in the WatZatSong thread, debunked by OP.
