"When The Night Feels My Song" was the first single from Sounding a Mosaic, the 2004 debut album by Canadian band Bedouin Soundclash, and it floats on an easy reggae lilt that softens into sunny, soft-rock melody. Jay Malinowski sings and plays guitar, with Eon Sinclair on bass and Pat Pengelly on drums, and Darryl Jenifer produced.
It turned out to be a slow-burning song with a long life. It reached number 24 in the UK in 2005, came back after a T-Mobile ad campaign in 2006, and spent years in the bumpers and credits of Kids' CBC. The video, shot at night on Toronto streets that were never closed off, so every passer-by is real, topped the MuchMusic Countdown in November 2005. One NME compilation even listed it as "When the Night Fills My Soul", a name that stuck in places.
