Composition
"By the End of the Night" is an electropop song by singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding from her fifth studio album, Higher Than Heaven. Alex Gonzalez from UPROXX said that the song: "takes inspiration from ’70s and ’80s pop sounds, as she delivers soft-tinged vocals over a synth-heavy beat." She first posted a snippet of the song through teasers during the album rollout. About the making of the track, Goulding explained in an interview with NME:“I feel like we’ve all been through such a lot over the last few years, we’re still processing everything. I don’t know if it’s just me but I feel like we need music that uplifts us and makes us feel good and that’s exactly how I feel about “By The End Of The Night.” It gives me a sense of euphoric, sensual escape, like being on a dancefloor on another planet…something that was definitely appealing back in the late 80’s… where this track could have easily come from!”
Promotion
To promote the track, Goulding performed the track on The Late Late Show with James Corden. She also performed the track at Kew Gardens for her Amazon Freevee concert special "Monumental: Ellie Goulding at Kew Gardens". The performance was later uploaded on Goulding's VEVO page on YouTube.
Two remixes were released to promote the single: the first being a remix by German DJ Southstar and the second an edit made by Neil Barrett, title "Morning After Edit".
No official music video was released for "By the End of the Night", instead a compilation video of her performing the track at her shows at KOKO, was released as an official live performance.
Critical reception
"By the End of the Night" was met with widespread critical acclaim with music critics who praised the musical production and Goulding's vocal performance. Nmesoma Okechukwu from EUPHORIA. said about the song: "'By the End of the Night' is Goulding perfecting her signature voice and style and kicking it into another gear." Ilina Jha from Redbrick described it as: "a great new song from Ellie Goulding, perfect for your playlist, for both now and during the summer months." Nick Eustis from Medium praised the song, stating that: " 'By The End Of The Night' comes soaked in 80s inspiration, with lush and pillowy synths backing Goulding’s nimble and girlish vocal. Plus, the lyrics have a delightful touch of the surreal, particularly in the chorus..."
