Queen of the New Year is the fifth and final single from the album When the World Knows Your Name by the Scottish rock band Deacon Blue.

It reached No. 21 in the UK, but went as high as No. 4 in the Irish singles charts, the group's fifth Irish top 10 hit in a row.

The main B-side is "My America". Some versions of the single contain the additional B-side, "Las Vegas", along with a longer version of the album track "Sad Loved Girl" and an acoustic demo version of the album track "Circus Lights".
