Richard Marx - Endless Summer Nights (Extended Remix)

Details

Description

"Endless Summer Nights" is a song performed by American rock singer Richard Marx, released in January 1988 as the third single from his eponymous debut album. The song peaked at No. 2 on the U.S. pop and Adult Contemporary charts.

"Endless Summer Nights" was a track from Marx's original demo tapes. It begins with a similar intro beat style as "It Must Have Been Love" by Roxette. The lyrics were inspired by a trip to Hawaii that Marx had taken with his then-girlfriend (and future wife), Cynthia Rhodes. According to Marx, he wrote the song as a theme to summer love that does not last when lovers go their separate ways in the fall. In the liner notes of his 1997 Greatest Hits album, Marx commented on the song: "Aside from replacing synthesized bass with the great Nathan East, this recording is the demo that every record company in the business rejected in 1985 and 1986." Marx eventually signed with EMI-Manhattan Records in 1986.

Released in January 1988 as the third single from his debut solo album, "Endless Summer Nights" entered the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at No. 53, the highest debut of the week. In March and April, the song reached No. 2, where it stayed for two weeks. The single also peaked at No. 2 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart.
