"Everyday" is a song by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and the third and last single from their 1993 album Liberator. Co-founder Paul Humphreys, who had left the band four years prior, is credited as a co-writer.

"Everyday" was the only single from Liberator to miss the UK Top 25, charting at number 59. OMD frontman Andy McCluskey later remarked, "Sadly it wasn't one of our better songs."[1]

The accompanying music video features Sara Cox, who would later be known as a BBC Radio DJ.[2]
