Writing and recording
Produced by Mutt Lange and Bryan Adams the song was recorded by Nigel Green at Battery Studios, London, and by Ken Lomas at Warehouse Studios, Vancouver.[1] Mixed by Bob Clearmountain at Mayfair Studios, London.[1]
Vallance involvement was minimal when it was written and recorded.[1] "There Will Never Be Another Tonight" was actually written in 1988 or '89 by Adams and Vallance.[1] The demo got the title "Buddy Holly idea" since it vaguely reminiscent of the Buddy Holly song "Peggy Sue".[1] Lange and Adams turned the demo into a song.[1]
