"Everybody Have Fun Tonight" is a song by the English new wave band Wang Chung, released as a single from their fourth studio album Mosaic in 1986. Collaboratively written by Jack Hues, Nick Feldman, and Peter Wolf, it reached no. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart during the 1986 Christmas season. It also hit No. 1 on the Canada RPM Top 100 Singles chart the week of 17 January 1987. With some different lyrics, the original ballad version of the song was placed on the B-side.
After their break-up in 1991, Wang Chung reunited in 2005 to perform this song on the television show Hit Me, Baby, One More Time.[citation needed]
The song is featured on numerous 1980s compilation albums and still receives some radio airplay across the United States and Canada. It has appeared in the "#2s" episode of VH1 Classic's One Hit Wonders series, even though the band is also known for "Let's Go!" and "Dance Hall Days".[citation needed]
