"Goodnight Goodnight" is the fifth single by Maroon 5 from their second studio album It Won't Be Soon Before Long. It was scheduled to be the fourth single off the album as it had begun receiving some airplay in Canada and had already reached the top spot on the Hong Kong singles chart.
The song has been used in The CW promotions for the network's 2008 fall schedule. The music video premiered on YahooMusic on August 21, 2008. Candace Bailey stars in the video.

The music video, directed by Anthony Mandler, was shot on an indoor soundstage in Castaic, California on April 23, 2008. One of the sets had to be repainted between takes.
An MTV News reporter called the video "a fairly glam affair", and Levine referred to it as "this kind of ultra-glamorous, photography-based, late-'70s/ early-'80s situation" and "really stylish and really beautiful", saying that "[Rihanna's] physical presence is undeniable".
The Guardian wrote, "The concept appears to be high-end erotica [...] If the [smartly furnished] sets resemble the kind of rooms nobody really lives in, then Rihanna sports a selection of outfits nobody really wears".
The video premiered on May 13 on Total Request Live. Rihanna said on The Today Show, when she went to perform for the Toyota Concert Series, and MTV's TRL that this was once of her favorite videos to make and enjoyed it.
The video features scenes in which Levine and Rihanna, according to The Guardian, "flirt professionally with each other" at a table (seated opposite each other), in a bedroom and on a couch.
Another setting presents Maroon 5 performing the song before Rihanna, who approaches Levine to share the microphone with him. Levine and Rihanna occasionally make violent gestures—such as scratching and hair-pulling—toward each other during the video.

On August 16, 2007, Maroon 5 posted a notice on their official website asking for fans to send in homemade videos to help the band make the video for this song. However, in October 2007, another video was released in Europe and Australia. The official video has premiered on VH1 Top 20 Countdown on December 1, 2007. It is also now playing on their official website.
The song's music video starts with flashbacks where Adam Levine (Maroon 5's lead singer) and a female character (portrayed by Tania Raymonde) appear to have an argument upon which Adam decides to leave. The video then cuts to Adam sitting in a chair thinking it over with the rest of the band performing in the background.
Adam realizes that he 'will not go home without you', referring to the female he had walked out on. Adam appears to know where the woman is at the moment and decides to look for her. After having meandered through the city for a few hours, Adam eventually gets to a restaurant where he finds the woman, but to his disappointment, she is with another man. The music video was directed by Sophie Muller.
There is an extra bit added on to this video, as the radio edit is longer than the album version.
It has peaked at No. 14 on the VH1 Top 20 Countdown so far.
