"New Year" is an pop song written by British group Sugababes, Jony Lipsey, Cameron McVey, Felix Howard, Matt Rowe and Paul Simm for their debut album One Touch. The song was produced by Lipsey, McVey and Simm and received a mixed reception from music critics.

It reached the top thirty in Ireland, but failed to make an impact on the singles charts elsewhere.
