"Midnight in Chelsea" is a song by American Rock singer Jon Bon Jovi, released as the first single from his second solo album Destination Anywhere in 1997. The song was Bon Jovi's highest-charting solo single in the UK, reaching #4 on the UK Singles Chart^[1](although a 1990 song, "Blaze of Glory", hit #1 in the US and Australia). The song also charted at #29 on the Adult Top 40, #30 on the Top 40 Mainstream chart and #3 on the Canadian singles chart^[2].

The song's video was shot in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, with the Hotel Chelsea as a primary location. However, the song is actually about the London neighbourhood from which the Manhattan locale indirectly took its name, as evidenced by lyrics that refer to London topics such as Sloane Rangers,The Sun and "a big red bus". The music video was released on the DVD "Destination Anywhere: The Film".
