DEF: Benny Mardones “Into the Night”

Benny Mardones, who passed away earlier this summer at the age of 73, only hit Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart with one song. However, that song — “Into the Night” — reached the Top 20 twice. First, it hit number 11 in 1980. Then, in 1989, it recharted and rose to number 20. Exactly 40 years ago, “Into the Night” climbed to its original peak position.
