the final solo is an improvisation of the first one so it will not
sound exactly like the original cd at the end.I modified it a
little at the so u could end the song instead of fading out.

this is a work of khoo
ps:if you know any good vocalist from malaysia please inform me

The best Eagle Eye Cherry song out. For sure. All about saving tonight...enjoying the last of the time you may have with a special someone. You know you have to leave them...but you don't want to...so you "Save Tonight" and "Fight the break of dawn" to spend every last possible moment with him/her. thats the way I interpret this song. Major props to Eagle Eye Cherry on this one. 1 2 3 Next

I agree catherineks. It's about saving the good moments and remembering them during the bad. "let's delay our misery... Save tonight "

When I first heard this song I was sort of dating a guy off 'n on (he was gone a lot with his work) & I thought the lyrics were perfect for us. The times we were together were really special; but even then I knew it would not last. That is what it means to me. BTW, joekeith, this song is not about jesus; it's about hot passionate SEX; plain & simple.

I think the song can totally relate to Jesus. I had never thought about it before but it makes perfect sense when you think about it.

i just need to make one comment - good for you being religious, it's a free country and you can interpret music anyway you want but every song IS NOT ABOUT GOD OR CHRIST that's what we have Christian Music for. I just want you people to know that As for my own personal interp (which will not include a guest appearence by jesus christ) i see it as people in a relationship and one has to leave (kind of like a military thing, but i'm getting rather tired of seeing THAT all over the place too) and they're spending one last night together before the other has to leave.

this song is really great. it's about knowing that a real relationship cannot work out, but deciding that having one good night is better than nothing. it's about losing yourself in someone for a short time.

I heard this song a long time ago, when I think I was really focusing on finding myself. Music has always been something I can lean on, and I love joekeith's idea of it. Christ is amazing, whether that's the focus of the song or not. Awesome interpretation. God, if only I could save tonight.

He's trying to make the last night with the girl he loves last as long as it can.
