Morrissey – Everyday Is Like Sunday
Morrissey – Everyday Is Like Sunday (1988)
Directed by: Tim Broad
Morrissey’s “Everyday Is Like Sunday,” released on May 31, 1988, is a standout track from his debut solo album, *Viva Hate*. Co-written with producer Stephen Street, the song draws inspiration from Nevil Shute’s novel *On the Beach*, reflecting themes of desolation in a seaside town. The single achieved commercial success, reaching number nine on the UK Singles Chart. The accompanying music video, directed by Tim Broad, was filmed in Southend-on-Sea and features Morrissey in various cameo roles, including a cyclist, café customer, and shop assistant. Actresses Billie Whitelaw, Cheryl Murray, and Lucette Henderson also appear, with Henderson portraying a young fan. The video includes clips from the film *Carry On Abroad*, a favorite of Morrissey’s.
