"Night of Fear"
Song
B-side"Disturbance"

"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 decided to be more commercial. It was released in 1966, and reached #2 in the UK Singles Chart the following year.

The song was featured in the 2007 film Hot Fuzz and included on its soundtrack album.
