Rolling Stone said this about "Tonight's the Night":
The Shirelles were teens in Passaic, New Jersey, who formed the group while in high school. Lead singer Owens was nineteen when she co-wrote this hit about romantic surrender, full of Latin-style syncopation and soulful yearning.
What the magazine did NOT say was that "Tonight's the Night" was only one of many titles originally proposed:
- Today's the Day
- This Song Goes Like This
- A Deal's a Deal
- Boys Will Be Boys
- The Past Is the Past
- 'Tis a Wet Rain That's Falling
- Enough Is Enough
- Call Me on the Phone
- Sometimes, a Cigar's Just a Cigar
- I Know What I Know
- What's Done Is Done
- It Is What It Is
