"The Nights" is a song by Swedish DJ and record producer Avicii, featuring uncredited vocals from singer/songwriter Nicholas Furlong.

[1] The song was later released by PRMD Music and Universal Island on Avicii's The Days / Nights EP on 1 December 2014, and subsequently on 11 January 2015 in the United Kingdom.

Furlong sent the original idea, titled "My Father Told Me", to Arash Pournouri, Avicii's manager.

Pournouri recognised an immediate draw to the track, saying that the song had that same sense of euphoria which characterises so much of Avicii's music.

Music, Pournouri said: "It made absolute sense to work on it with Nick...[Avicii and I just needed] to make it more 'us' and that's what [we] did.
