Everyday (Phil Collins song)

"Everyday" is a song by English musician Phil Collins, released as the second single of his fifth studio album, Both Sides (1993). The single achieved success mostly in North America in early 1994. In 2004, it was included as the seventh track on Collins' compilation album Love Songs: A Compilation... Old and New.

Release

In Phil Collins' native UK, "Everyday" stalled outside the top 10 of the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number 15. In the United States, "Everyday" reached number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number two on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. On the latter listing, the song finished 1994 as the most successful adult contemporary song. In Canada, "Everyday" reached number eight on the RPM 100 Hit Tracks chart and peaked atop the Adult Contemporary Tracks ranking on 18 April 1994. It ended 1994 as Canada's 59th-most-successful single and fourth-most-successful adult contemporary song. Elsewhere, the single reached number 17 in Iceland and entered the top 40 in Flanders, Germany, Ireland, and the Netherlands.

Music video

The song's music video, directed by Jim Yukich, features Collins moving out of a luxury apartment he (presumably) shared with the person he's addressing in the song. Inside the apartment all of the items are covered and ready for the movers, and the walls are bare white. Collins' record label did not promote the single heavily, resulting in the video receiving minimal airplay on MTV and VH1, just as same as his previous single, "Both Sides of the Story."
