"Everyday Is Like Sunday" is een lied uit 1988 van de Britse zanger Morrissey. Het is het derde nummer uit zijn debuutalbum, Viva Hate, en de tweede single die door hem werd uitgebracht. Het haalde de negende positie in de UK Singles Chart en is een van zijn bekendste nummers. Everyday Is Like Sunday verscheen, evenals zijn B-kanten Disappointed and Will Never Marry, op het compilatie-album Bona Drag.

"Everyday Is Like Sunday" is the third track of Morrissey's debut solo album, Viva Hate, and the second single to be released by the artist. Co-written by Morrissey and former Smiths producer Stephen Street, the song was Morrissey's second release after the Smiths break-up. Morrissey was inspired lyrically by Nevil Shute's On the Beach to lament the drudgery of a seaside town. Street, who had originally sought to contribute his musical ideas to Morrissey to use for Smiths B-sides, also contributed bass guitar, which he contends was inspired by Echo & the Bunnymen.

"Everyday Is Like Sunday" was featured on Morrissey's debut album, Viva Hate, and the compilation album Bona Drag. Upon release, the single, featuring the B-sides "Disappointed", "Will Never Marry", and "Sister I'm a Poet", saw commercial and critical success, reaching number nine in the UK and garnering rave reviews for its evocative lyrics and bombastic music. Encouraged by the success of the single, Morrissey would continue working with Street for subsequent singles and the rest of Viva Hate.

Since its release, "Everyday Is Like Sunday" has become one of Morrissey's most successful songs and remains critically acclaimed by modern writers. It has also inspired the cult Canadian film Everyday Is Like Sunday.
