All Night Long

"All Night Long" is a song by popular 1980's singer Lionel Richie. It was featured in the Season Seventeen episode, "Taming Strange".

Background
Mr. Mackey is attempting to teach the fourth grade students the new IntelliLink computer system for faculty notification. Due to his usual ineptitude, he presses the wrong button on the notebook computer, causing the song "All Night Long" to play. Later in the episode, while watching a educational film,the song continues to play through the intercom while the students sit in the dark. Mr. Mackey tries furiously to stop the music.
