Songfacts®:

  • This UFO track is not the first song called "We Belong To The Night" but is probably the most uptempo, and definitely one of the best.

    Running 3:57 seconds, it kicks off side two of the Mechanix album, and was co-written by the time-serving Phil Mogg and Pete Way with new boy Neil Carter, the latter of whom told this website in March 2011, that the song is about "generalisms." He added: "I don't think refers to anything/anyone in particular. Phil was always interested in the night hours and wrote quite a few lyrics in this vein." >>>
