"Every Night I Say a Prayer" is a song by English recording artist Little Boots, released as the second single from her second studio album, Nocturnes (2013). Written with Hercules and Love Affair's Andy Butler, the song was released as a limited edition 12" vinyl to commemorate Record Store Day on 21 April 2012, and Little Boots performed a set at Rough Trade East on the same day. The song was later released as a free download on 23 April.[1][2] "Every Night I Say a Prayer" was originally included on Little Boots's mixtape Into the Future as its title track,[3] until the title changed.

To further promote the new single, Little Boots and Trax Records sent four remixes of the song to Nylon magazine, who published them for streaming on their website which will later be used as the American promotional release.[4]

The single was regarded by Michael Cragg from The Guardian, as one of the Top 5 modern disco tracks.[5]
