SELESSTINE OWN FESTIVE AIRWAVES WITH BACK-TO-BACK SONGS: “THE DAY BEFORE” & NEW YEAR’S EVE SINGLE “MIDNIGHT ALL AROUND THE WORLD”
Rising artist Selesstine has released not one but two festive anthems set to dominate the holiday season. After launching the widely praised Christmas Eve hit “The Day Before” — dubbed by some as the best Christmas song since Wham! — Selesstine now follows with “Midnight All Around The World,” a high-energy New Year’s Eve celebration track.
- (1888PressRelease) December 06, 2025 - London, UK - Just when the nation thought the festive season already had its soundtrack, rising artist Selesstine returns with a surprise that ensures nobody switches off once Christmas Day passes. After the astonishing buzz surrounding the Christmas smash “The Day Before” - widely tipped as the best Christmas song since Wham! in 1984 - Selesstine has unveiled a brand-new celebratory anthem, “Midnight All Around The World”, set to ignite New Year’s Eve parties across the globe.
Where The Day Before captures the anticipation, emotion and family magic of Christmas Eve, “Midnight All Around The World” delivers the heartbeat of New Year’s Eve - countdowns, fireworks, hope, reflection, and the unifying thrill of millions celebrating at different time zones, one midnight at a time.
Together, the two tracks form something few artists have ever achieved:
A Seasonal One-Two Punch
A Christmas Eve song AND a New Year’s Eve anthem released in the same festive season.
In a year where the world craves joy, connection and communal escapism, Selesstine may have accidentally - or brilliantly - solved the annual problem: What do we listen to after Christmas Day?
Now, instead of the festive cheer suddenly deflating once the wrapping paper is cleared, fans have a seamless musical bridge that carries the holiday spirit right into the fireworks of January 1st.
A CULTURAL MOMENT IN THE MAKING
“The Day Before” continues to gather extraordinary momentum, helped by praise from the bass guitarist of David Bowie, a lyrical nod to the Royal Family’s ‘silly gift’ tradition, and the growing TikTok sensation #TheDayBeforeChallenge, rumoured to tempt Gino D’Acampo, Gordon Ramsay, and Fred Sirieix into a Christmas jumper dance-off.
“Midnight All Around The World” now brings global celebration into the spotlight, with a chorus made for countdowns and a hook destined for fireworks videos, midnight kisses, and those reflective “last moment of the year” clips TikTok loves.
If The Day Before is the sparkle, Midnight All Around The World is the champagne.
THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE SEASON
Critics are already calling this pairing: “A festive narrative in two acts - Christmas magic followed by New Year euphoria.”
It is rare for a new artist to land even one seasonal hit. To release two culturally resonant tracks that frame the entire holiday period - and have social media ready to explode - is something the music world is paying attention to.
