December's Children (And Everybody's) is the fifth US album by The Rolling Stones, released in late 1965. Drawn largely from two days of sessions recorded in September to finish the UK Out of Our Heads album and to record their new single, "Get Off Of My Cloud", December's Children (And Everybody's) also included tracks recorded from as early as 1963.

The majority of the songs appearing on the album were written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, as they penned strong album cuts like "I'm Free" and "The Singer Not the Song" as well as such major hits as "As Tears Go By" and "Get off of My Cloud".

December's Children (And Everybody's) reached #4 in the US and went gold.

In August 2002 December's Children (And Everybody's) was reissued in a new remastered CD and SACD digipak by ABKCO Records.
