Artist: SPICA (스피카) Song: Tonight Album: 3rd Digital single "Tonight" Lyrics : 이효리, 김보아 (SPICA) Composed : Nermin Harambasic, Anne Judith Wik, Henri Jouni Kristian Lanz, William Robert Rappaport Arranged : 양시온, 김태현 -- SPICA(스피카) 3rd DIGITAL SINGLE ALBUM [ Tonight ]

실력파 걸그룹 스피카가 소속사 선배인 이효리의 참여 아래 세 번째 디지털 싱글인 "Tonight"을 발표했다. "Tonight"은 외국곡을 편곡한 곡으로 기본에 충실한 락비트를 중점으로 제작되었다. 단순한 코드진행에 세련된 멜로디를 트랜디한 리듬패턴과 코러스에 8비트 기본의 락키타를 섞어 춤추고 싶은 그루브로 만들어진 곡이다.

가사는 이효리와 스피카 멤버인 보아가 공동 작사를 했으며, 힘들었던 지난 날은 잊고 다시 한번 날아보자는 의미를 담고 있다. 기다리고 원하던 무언가가 다가올 때의 설레이는 기분을 가사에 표현하고자 했으며, 누구나 공감할 수 있을 희망적인 메시지를 담고 있다.

이번 앨범은 이효리가 선곡부터 자켓, 뮤직비디오까지 앨범 전체 프로듀싱을 맡아 화제가 되었으며, 후배 가수의 프로듀싱을 처음 맡게 된 이효리는 더욱 심혈을 기울여 작업했다는 후문.
