Allday has once again proved why he is one of Australia’s most enduring artists on new single “over the moon”.
The song captures the spirit of optimism and self-belief that has long defined Allday’s work. It’s a celebration of life, combining his sharp storytelling with euphoric production that highlights his ability to evolve while staying true to his roots.
“Over the moon” acts as a reminder to embrace joy, trust your instincts, and find happiness in the moment, demonstrating the Adelaide artist’s unique gift for connecting with listeners through both mood and message.
“In life you have to bet on yourself and trust your instincts, ‘over the moon’ is a reminder to myself to do that. It’s also about celebrating life in general, win or lose, you may as well be happy,” he shared.
His recent singles have continued to demonstrate his versatility and relentless work ethic, including “underneath”, which has since been added to major editorial playlists including Apple Music’s New Music Daily, New In Hip-Hop, and Amazon Music’s Brand New Music.

Allday released his latest album, The Necklace, in 2024.
“After exploring indie-pop on last album Drinking with My Smoking Friends, Allday, aka Tom Gaynor, is back in full rap beast mode for a loose concept album about acting like a bit of a dirtbag, but actually having the maturity to admit it and be held accountable,” we wrote in a glowing 4.5/5 review.
“Concept or not, this features some of Gaynor’s best music to date: ‘Toxic’ taps the sped-up soul samples and gospel choirs of Kanye West at his best; ‘Miss You Still’, which features Cub Sport and interpolates Ben Lee’s ‘Cigarettes Will Kill You’, seems destined to top the next triple j Hottest 100, and ‘Bon Voyage’, a yodel-sampling tribute to a fallen friend, is genuinely affecting.
With heartbreak, humour (“I make hot girls take the bin out to give them life experience,” Gaynor raps on ‘Bratz’) and hooks aplenty, this is Allday operating at the top of his game.”
Allday’s “over the moon” is out now.
