“A Night Like This” by Caro Emerald is a stylish, retro‑jazz pop track released in December 2009 as the second single from her debut album Deleted Scenes from the Cutting Room Floor.
The song is a modern classic wrapped in vintage glamour. Blending jazz‑pop, swing rhythms, and cinematic flair, the song captures the electric moment when an ordinary night suddenly turns extraordinary.
Inspired by a scene from the 1967 Casino Royale, it carries the seductive tension of a film — smoky rooms, stolen glances, and the thrill of the unexpected. It became one of her signature hits, blending vintage glamour with a modern, cinematic groove.
At its core, the song captures the feeling of stepping into a glamorous, unexpected night — the kind where everything feels possible.
The lyrics were inspired by a specific scene from the 1967 James Bond film Casino Royale, which explains the seductive, mysterious, slightly dangerous mood.
The track’s retro orchestration, bold brass, and Caro Emerald’s velvet‑smooth vocals create a world where mystery and desire collide.
Lyrically, it speaks to that rare spark — the instant connection that feels almost unreal, as if the night itself is conspiring to make something unforgettable happen.
Since its release in 2009, “A Night Like This” has become one of Emerald’s signature hits, topping charts across Europe and appearing in films, series, and major ad campaigns.
Its timeless sound and cinematic storytelling continue to make it a favorite for listeners who love music with style, drama, and a touch of old‑Hollywood magic.
Fun fact: the writers reportedly created the song in about an hour, right before Degiorgio left for Toronto. First appeared in an online Martini commercial, which perfectly matched its glamorous vibe.
The music video was filmed in Amsterdam and in several locations in Croatia (Opatija, Lovran, Rijeka).
