"Night of Fear" is the title of The Move's debut single. The main riff was derived from Tchaikovsky's, 1812 Overture.
At one point, it was considered that its B-side "Disturbance" would be The Move's first a-side, but this didn't happen because "Night of Fear" was deemed to be more commercial. It was released in 1966, and reached number 2 in the UK Singles Chart the following year. the song features all 4 of The Move's vocalists; Carl Wayne, Trevor Burton, Ace Kefford and Roy Wood in 4 part harmony, with primarily featuring Wayne and Wood with Kefford singing the chorus "Just about to flip your mind, just about to trip your mind".
Typical of all of the groups singles, it received no significant airplay in the US, despite being issued there.
The song was featured in the 2007 film Hot Fuzz and included on its soundtrack album.
