Default searching for 80's dance/pop song, male singer, "tonight's the night" in the chorus

The song I'm looking for has "tonight's the night" in the chorus, but it's not Neil Young or Rod Stewart, etc. It's a dance/pop song with some wolf howling in the background at some points.

I only have a very bad tape recording left of this song - very bad because I ruined the tape by listening to it so much way back when. So unfortunately I cannot post a video/audio reference. Additionally, I'm from Germany, so my English is not perfect and it is often very hard for me to make out lyrics, especially from a poor quality audio. That said, here are the lyrics as I heard them with [...] denoting parts I could not make heads or tails of:


tonight's the night i lose control
tonight's the night i satisfy my soul
tonight's the night when the moon comes out again

when the sun goes down
the strangest things happen to me
i got to be where the action is
i got to set my soul free

my feet start moving when i hear the beat
my fingers start snapping when i feel the heat
nobody's gonna stop me once i [...]
'cause i'm wild and crazy 'til the sun comes up

tonight's the night i lose control
tonight's the night i satisfy my soul
tonight's the night when the moon comes out again
tonight

i'm the first one on the scene
and always the last to go
i put the life in any party
as the moon begins to glow

my heart starts pounding as the music [...] (gets loud?)
before i know it i'm [...] in the crowd
my clothes get soaking wet from the body sweat
my hair is standing straight and my eyes [...] (dilate?)

tonight's the night i lose control
tonight's the night i satisfy my soul
tonight's the night when the moon comes out again



Thanks for any help!
