"Into the Night" is a 1980 song by American Pop Singer/Songwriter Benny Mardones, re-recorded in 1989.
It is unique for being the only recording to ever ascend and hit the top 20 on the Billboard Charts twice. This happened in 1980, and in 1989. Both chartings were the same recording, and in between fell completely off the charts[1].
Benny Mardones released the song on his album Never Run, Never Hide in 1980. The Song "Into the Night" peaked at #11 on the Hot 100.
In 1989, a Where Are They Now TV special rocketed the song back onto the charts, peaking at #20. Mardones re-recorded the song that year as well, the second recording did not chart.
