"Jive Into the Night (Yaban na Yoru ni)" (JIVE INTO THE NIGHT 〜野蛮な夜に〜, lit. "Jive Into the Night ~Savage Night~") is the 24th single by Japanese idol duo Wink. Written by Neko Oikawa, Sergio Portaluri, David Sion, and Fulvio Zafret, it is a Japanese-language cover of the 1988 song "Jive Into the Night" by the Italian Eurobeat group The Green Olives. The "Hyper Euro Mix" version was released as a single on June 25, 1995, by Polystar Records.[1][2]

Prior to Wink's version, "Jive Into the Night" was covered in Japanese by the White Tigers in 1988 (as "Motto Fantasy" (もっとFANTASY, "More Fantasy")) and by Masaru Narita & D.K.I. in 1989, each with different lyrics and arrangement. "Jive Into the Night (Yaban na Yoru ni)" was remixed by MST, which consisted of producers Mitsugu Matsumoto, Takahiro Tashiro, and Osamu Marumoto.

"Jive Into the Night (Yaban na Yoru ni) [Hyper Euro Mix]" peaked at No. 92 on the Oricon's weekly charts and sold over 6,000 copies, making it the duo's lowest-charting and lowest-selling single.[3][4]
