      • "Maybe Tonight" is a pop song written by Dave Bassett, Jess Cates and Lindy Robbins, produced by Bryon Jones and Adam Reily for Kate DeAraugo's first album A Place I've Never Been (2005). It was released as the album's first single on 28 November 2005 and was successful in her home country of Australia, becoming her first number-one hit.


      Music video


      The video opens with DeAraugo staring out her bedroom window in the rain, before it cuts away to a shot of a young couple (DeAraugo and her partner in the past), sitting on a motel roof with an umbrella. The video continues to cut between the present and the past, until we see her partner in the present with his car broken down, then we see the young couple where the male has fallen of his bike and hurt his knee, then they kiss. DeAraugo's partner then tries to ring her on his mobile phone, however he drops it and it breaks apart, while at the same time she just tried to call him. The video continues to cut between the young couple, and DeAraugo waiting for her boyfriend, who is running in the street to her, and we then see she is staying at the same motel we saw the young couple in. DeAraugo is also seen in a glamorous brown dress with shoulder-length earrings, as well as a black dress, in front of a backdrop of paintings. Her partner finally arrives at her motel while she is reminiscing, and they embrace as the video fades out.


      Promotion and chart performance


      The song was the most added song to radio in Australia the week before its release on 28 November 2005.
