The Long Play is the debut studio album by German pop singer Sandra, released on 9 December 1985. The album was a great commercial success.

"In the Heat of the Night" is a Disco song by German singer Sandra. The song was released in November 1985 as the second single from the álbum The Long Play, where it charted at #1 in Switzerland and Israel, #2 in Germany, and #8 in South Africa (in mid-1986).

The song was covered by Hong Kong pop singer Anita Mui in 1986 with alternative title Cleave the Iceberg (Traditional Chinese: 將冰山劈開), by Finnish gothic metal band To/Die/For in 2000, and by Swedish progressive rock band Odyssey in 2009. Also in 1999, a remix version of the song by Sandra was released as a promo single only in France.

In 2007, Virgin Music France decided to release a special version of Reflections, containing three new remixes made by French DJs. "In the Heat of the Night" was planned to be released as a single in France containing four new versions of the song, in order to promote the new compilation. A few promotional copies were sent to the media; however, the commercial release was cancelled and it was only released online as a digital single.

Talk to me

Want my love

Talk to me

But not that stuff

You ain't get enough using my love

You call for me

Again I'll see

In the heat of the night

You lose control and sell your soul

I lose control in the heat of the night

It's much too late to leave the trade

But I can't stand it anymore

You lose your heart and sell your soul

I lose control in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

Talk to me

Want my love

Talk to me

But not that stuff

Who's on my side losing my pride?

You call for me

Again I'll see

In the heat of the night

You lose control and sell your soul

I lose control in the heat of the night

It's much too late to leave the trade

But I can't stand it anymore

You lose your heart and sell your soul

I lose control in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

You lose control and sell your soul

I lose control in the heat of the night

It's much too late to leave the trade

But I can't stand it anymore

You lose your heart and sell your soul

I lose control in the heat of the night

In the heat of the night

You lose control and sell your soul

It's much too late to leave the trade.
