“For Tonight“ is a song by American R&B singer-songwriter Giveon. It was released September 24, 2021 through Epic Records as the lead single off his debut studio album Give Or Take. The song debuted at #64 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
Giveon sings about the joy he gets from spending time with his significant other but only for a night. The song serves as the lead single to his debut studio album.
He previously changed his profile pictures on his social media accounts to the song’s cover art and announced that new music was on the way on September 18, 2021. Two days later, he revealed its title, full cover art, and release date.
“I kind of tried to have this song where it feels contradictory in a way. The sonics are so—they feel romantic, and it feels like it’s a love song. But if you scratch the surface and actually look and listen and read the lyrics, you could kind of see the truth peek out and the taboo-ness of what I’m talking about. Because that’s really sometimes what relationships are and what life is: It looks and feels right on the outside, but then, once you put a magnifying glass on it, you could kind of start to see all the cracks.“
