"Saturday Night" is a song by English singer and songwriter Natalia Kills from her second studio album Trouble (2013). It was released as the album's second single on 28 June 2013, following the release of the promotional single "Controversy" and the album's lead single "Problem". Written by Kills along with American record producer Jeff Bhasker, the song faces the themes of "squandered youth and disenchantment",[1] and talks about moving on while going through a difficult time. Musically, it is a new wave-tinged, synth-based song.
Upon its release, "Saturday Night" was met with widespread critical acclaim; contemporary music critics highlighted the lyrics' personal content and billed it as Kills' best song to date. "Saturday Night" was able to peak at number twenty-three at the singles chart of New Zealand, and reached the top 10 of the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs. Along with the single release, a music video directed by Guillaume Doubet was released in July 2013. It revolves around domestic abuse, drug addiction, and Kills' relationship with her parents.
