"This Is Your Night" reached number one in Israel,[6] and had great success in many countries, particularly in Australia, Belgium, Japan, Lebanon, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Spain.
It charted in the top 40 in the United States and gained further prominence after appearing in the 1998 American comedy film, A Night at the Roxbury.
[1] On the single review, Flick remarked that the normally hip-hop-rooted Tommy Boy "dives head-first into the ongoing Euro-NRG craze with a bouncy anthem that will have folks who never get enough of La Bouche-styled rhythm twirling with ear-to-ear grins."
[15] L.A. Times named it a "classic house groove", stating that "Amber works the beats like a pro, turning each phrase into a perfect fusion of rhythm and melody."
"[16] The accompanying music video for "This Is Your Night" was filmed in New York City, directed by Jeff Kennedy, and produced by Nicola Doring.
It features Amber singing in a pool wearing a glittery jewelled headpiece and surrounded by flowers floating on the water posing with "prayer hands".
The video was later made available on Tommy Boy's official YouTube channel in July 2018, and had generated more than 18 million views as of late 2024.
Billboard editor Andrew Unterberger wrote, "A dance-floor clarion call from its opening seconds, "This Is Your Night" was as undeniable as hi-NRG dance-pop got in '97, seemingly one long continuous chorus serving as a baton relay between mega-hooks.
The Berman Brothers had Amber write 98% of the lyrics and singing melody in a studio in Hamburg to a basic track and yet they claimed most of the publishing shares for the title.
This maxi single was the sixth in an ongoing series of planned reissues of Amber catalog remixes that have been vaulted for decades.
