"All Night" is a song by Swedish synth-pop duo Icona Pop, from their second studio and international debut album, This Is... Icona Pop (2013). The album was released worldwide on 23 July 2013, as a digital download by Swedish independent record label TEN Music Group, as well as Atlantic Records subsidiary Big Beat Records. The song is the second single to be released from the album, following "Girlfriend". It was featured in the film Neighbors and appears on the film's soundtrack.[1]

Composition

According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com, "All Night" is written in the key of E major with a tempo of 120 beats per minute. It follows a chord progression of A-E-C#m-B.[2]

Music video

The video for "All Night" was directed by Marc Klasfeld and follows the hidden lifestyle of nightlife performers in the ball culture, particularly, but not limited to, drag queens. The music video is set in New York City and sheds light on the back story of some of the performers, as they reveal their hidden identities and why they chose to become a part of the underground business. As the show gets under way, the host reveals that two groups will be participating in the night's fashion show (known in the video as "The Ball"), House of Sparkle and House of Spirit. As Icona Pop performs, the "Paris Is Burning"-esque "vogue-off" gets under way. Performers arrive onto the platform and are then judged by a panel based on their stride down the catwalk. As costumes become more extravagant and groups try to out do each other, Icona Pop claims that "they can do it all night". Towards the end of the video, performers are exposed as both, their real self and the identity they portray every night. The performers provide an in depth short cut interview into some of the reasons they take part in "house ballroom" culture. Some of the performers include; Chi Chi, Pony, Jeremy, Marie, Derrick, Javier, Gisele, Mother Leiomy, Princess Lockerooo and Father Jose. At the end of the music video, a performer is left with the final word of the night by saying; "For whatever it is that you're bringing, your outfit, your body, your face, your skills. These people put so much effort and so much energy and so much love into everything that they do. It's a role of creativity and I'll take it. I'll take all of it".

The song was later recorded by South Korean girl group Ive as their debut English single, and features an extra verse from American rapper Saweetie. A snippet of the song was first teased on 9 January 2024 via the group's Instagram.[28]

Music video

The music video premiered on 18 January 2024. It was directed by Charlotte Rutherford & Crystalline, with production from Left. It was shot at 222 W 6th St in San Pedro, Los Angeles, California.

The video begins with text messages superimposed over the video from Saweetie, asking Ive to assist with her business. After entering the office building, Ive uses the elevator to reach Saweetie's office. Later, the group opens up a video meeting invite from Saweetie, causing emojis to fly out of the screen, and a montage of partying and dancing begins. Saweetie's verse is set in a meeting room before meeting up with Ive in the office hallways. The group continues to dance and party in the office until the song's end. The video ends with footage of the office afterwards, trashed by the party, overlaid by a voicemail message from Saweetie saying she and Ive are "out of office".
