"Stay the Night" is a song by Russian-German electronic dance music producer Zedd, from the deluxe edition (2013) of his debut studio album, Clarity (2012). It features vocals from Hayley Williams, the lead singer of American rock group Paramore. The song was written by Zedd, Williams, Benjamin Eli Hanna (believed to be a secret moniker of Nate Ruess), and Carah Faye, and produced by Zedd. "Stay the Night" was released to digital retailers on 23 September 2013, by Interscope Records as the lead single off the deluxe edition of Clarity, and the fourth overall single from the album.
The song has been compared to Zedd's previous electro house hit "Clarity", with Critic of Music saying "Stay the Night" is primed for "pop radio". Digital Spy said the song was "generic EDM", and Idolator pointed to its EDM-style club-ready dance beats, "dreamy" synths, and a pop-style vocal. "Stay the Night" received critical acclaim, with some critics noting the song's potential for crossover appeal to audiences of mainstream pop.
The single reached the number one spot on both Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs and Dance/Mix Show Airplay charts in its issue dated 7 December 2013, giving Zedd his second number one at Dance Airplay and his third chart-topper at Dance Club Play, while Williams gained her first number one on a Billboard chart (at Dance/Mix Show Airplay) as a solo artist. The song has reached the top twenty in fifteen countries and sold over two million copies in the U.S. by September 2017.
