“Midnight in Chelsea” is a song by Jon Bon Jovi, released as the lead single from his second solo album, Destination Anywhere, on June 1, 1997. The song was co-written and produced by Dave Stewart of Eurythmics.
Unlike Bon Jovi’s usual hard rock style, Midnight in Chelsea leans into adult alternative and pop-rock influences. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of life in Chelsea, London, rather than the more famous Chelsea neighborhood in Manhattan. The song became Bon Jovi’s highest-charting solo single in the UK, reaching No. 4 on the UK Singles Chart, and also performed well in Spain, where it hit No. 1 for two weeks.
The music video, directed by Mark Pellington, was filmed in Chelsea, Manhattan, featuring the Hotel Chelsea as a primary location. However, the song itself references London-specific elements, such as Sloane Rangers and a big red bus.
