UK CD5 [HMV CDPOP1619]
The "Everyday Is Like Sunday" cd-single comes in a thin jewel case. The front artwork was cropped to fit the insert's format (view left). The spine is dark blue with Morrissey's name, "Everyday Is Like Sunday" and the catalogue number in yellow. The back is the same dark blue with a barcode, then Morrissey's name in the same colour and font as on the front, and a yellow His Master's Voice logo (view left). The inner side of the insert is also dark blue. It shows the image usually seen on the back of the 7" and 12" formats, with the track listing above in pink and credits and catalogue number beneath in yellow/beige (view left). The disc surface is pink with a lot of black text. Morrissey's name appears at the top in black, in the same font as on the front of the sleeve.

UK CMS [HMV TCPOP1619]
The front artwork for the cassette format shows the same image as the other formats, but uncropped and with more space above Morrissey's head (view left). The spine is dark blue with Morrissey's name, "Everyday Is Like Sunday" and the catalogue number in beige. The back is the same blue. It is filled with the track listing in pink, the His Master 's Voice logo and catalogue number in yellow, a barcode and a printing/manufacturing credit. The insert has only one extra panel. It is again dark blue and shows the image usually seen on the back of the 7" and 12" formats, with track listing above in pink and extensive credits beneath in yellow (view left). The case is made of clear plastic. The cassette itself is made of clear plastic with white text printed directly onto it. It features a white His Master's Voice logo in the top right corner.

View here. This presumably features the music for all four songs featured on the single.

UK 7" jukebox [HMV POP1619]
This item is just like the stock 7" described above but the centre is a large hole for jukebox play. The record does not come in a picture sleeve unless it was paired with one a posteriori.

UK 12" promo [HMV 12POPDJ1619]
Each one of Morrissey's first six solo singles was promoted with the help of a 12" in a glossy record bag, each title of a different colour. The "Everyday Is Like Sunday" promo 12" sleeve is grey (view left). It has Morrissey's name at the top in white, in the same font used on the commercial single. Below his name is a white His Master's Voice logo. One side is die-cut to expose the a-side label. The other side has the catalogue number in the top right corner in a small white font, and a cut-out opening at the top to facilitate access to the record. The labels are white with a grey 'A' or 'B' taking up the whole space. Each side's track listing is printed in grey in the top half and the promo's catalogue number in the lower half in a smaller font.

UK 7" promo [HMV POP1620]
Stock copies of the 7" format with a plugger sticker on the back of the sleeve were mailed out to media/retail with an A4 press sheet. The sticker has contact information for pluggers Steve Hayes, Miranda Leckie and Peter Evans and is date-stamped "31 May 1988". The press release is headed by Morrissey's name in the same font as on the single. It has a photocopy of the plugger sticker at the bottom.

UK video promo [??]
A one-track promo video of "Everyday Is Like Sunday" was mailed out to the relevent media at the time of release of this single. Packaging information is needed.

UK promo poster
A subway size promo poster featuring a variation of the single's artwork is being traded where collectors buy and sell. It has Morrissey's name at the top in yellow/beige and the title in pink. However this does not appear to be an official promo poster as neither EMI or His Master's Voice are credited on it. The existence of a legitimate subway size poster and perhaps a smaller one as well is still expected. Please write if you have any information.

UK instore display piece
This is a promo-only 14" diameter instore display, printed on both sides with back to back replicas of the 7" labels. It was probably meant to be hung. The labels are those of a 7" with push-out centre despite the fact that this title was never released otherwise than with a solid centre. View a-side.

UK advert 40cm x 30cm (16" x 12")
View here. The text at the bottom lists the b-sides for the 7" and 12" formats. The image is of a 7" with push-out centre despite the fact that this title was never released otherwise than with a solid centre.

UK 7" test pressing
The test pressing for the UK 7" has a plain white label and is usually found inside a black die-cut paper record bag.
POP 1619 A-2U-1-1 / POP 1619 B-2U-1-1

UK 12" test pressing
The existence of a white label 12" test pressing has been reported. It presumably has all-white labels and comes inside some sort of generic sleeve. Confirmation needed.

UK in-house cassette [Abbey Road]
Some lucky collectors have managed to get their hands on an Abbey Road cassette which originally served in-house purposes. The cassette comes with a white insert featuring a black and yellow Abbey Road logo on the front, an EMI logo and Morrissey's name typewritten on the spine, and Abbey Road contact information on the back. The track listing with song lengths is typewritten on the inside panel. The FX46 cassette is made of black plastic and has purple/blue (unrelated) text printed onto it. Additional information needed.

UK 12" acetate [Abbey Road]
This particularly rare item comes inside a white sleeve with the Abbey Road logo across it. The sleeve has the thickness of an inner sleeve, it is glossy and is die-cut to expose the labels. These are white with black and yellow Abbey Road logo at the top and printed Abbey Road contact information around the bottom edge. The bottom half has Morrissey's name, the title and "45 rpm" handwritten in red.

UK 12" acetate [CBS Mastering]
This acetate bears generic white CBS Mastering Studios labels with the company's blue logo and contact information in the upper half. These labels were filled with handwritten release information: side letter in the upper left 'corner', the date "18/4/88" (a-side) or "15/4/88" (b-side) in the upper right 'corner', Morrissey's name on the left and side's track listing in the bottom half. The acetate seems to come inside a white paper record bag die-cut to expose the labels.
(no matrix number)

UK 12" labels layout boards
This is a set of two layout boards having served in the design of the 12" labels, one for the a-side and the other for the b-side. Both are based on printed black and white His Master's Voice labels, with His Master's Voice logo at the top, 45 RPM graphics on the right and EMI credits around the edge, but without anything on them having to do with Morissey. Then everything related to this very release, such as the catalogue number, Morrissey's name, the titles, some credits, etc, have been printed, cut, and laid out at the proper position on the generic HMV label. This may be covered with a sheet of rice paper (confirmation needed).

Australia 7" [EMI EMI2098]
The Australian 7" sleeve opens from the top and unlike the British edition, there is no cut-out portion on the back for better grip on the record. The front shows the usual 7" variation of the artwork (view left). The back is modelled on the back of the UK 7", but the gold catalogue number in the top right number was changed for the Australian one, and it was printed in pink. There is no barcode in the bottom left corner, and an EMI logo was added above the His Master's Voice logo. The EMI credits at the very bottom were replaced with a few lines of Australian credits beneath the paragraph in the bottom right corner. The labels are beige with black text, a red EMI logo at the bottom and red legal credits around the edges.

Australia 12" [EMI Australia ED 352]
The Australian 12" shows the 7" variation of the artwork on the front instead of the expected 12" one. The text layout and size on the back is also closer to those of the 7" format than those of the 12". The catalogue number in the top right corner was changed for the Australian one and printed in pink instead of gold. The barcode in the bottom left corner was replaced with a gold EMI logo. The EMI credits were moved from the bottom left corner to the bottom right one, beneath the paragraph of credits. A EMI Music Group Australasia credit was added beneath that. The record is slipped inside a plain film anti-static inner sleeve. The labels are red with a mix of black and white text and a vintage His Master's Voice logo at the top. All the release information, catalogue number and credits are in black, and the EMI logo and credits around the edge in white. It has been reported that early copies came with a keyring, but this may only have been a promotion specific to one particular retailer without the involvement of a record label. Any extra information on the subject is welcome.

Australia 12" promo [??]
The existence of an Australian one-track promo 12" of "Everyday Is Like Sunday" has been rumoured, but this is unlikely and needs to be confirmed.

Brazil 12" promo [EMI/Odeon Parlophone 9951 093]
This item is actually a promo for the Brazilian release of the "Viva Hate" album, because "Everyday Is Like Sunday" was never released as a single in Brazil. Click on latter link for information.

Canada 12" [Sire/Reprise 92 0986-0]
The Canadian 12" shows the usual 12" artwork on the front. The back of the sleeve is modelled on the back of the UK 12", but there is no catalogue number in the top right corner, the song titles are printed in a bigger font, the His Master's Voice logo in the bottom left corner was changed for Sire and Reprise logos, additional credits are found in a small white font beneath the barcode in the bottom left corner, and the availability of the title track on the "Viva Hate" album is mentioned in white above the paragraph of credits in the bottom right corner. Copies that are still sealed have a round blue sticker on the front stating "Specially-Priced Maxi-Single" and advertising the musical content. The record is slipped inside a clear anti-static inner sleeve. The labels are the usual yellow Sire ones, with blue Sire logo at the top (but no Reprise logo, surprisingly), contents and credits at the bottom, catalogue number on the left, and Sire/WEA Canada credits around the bottom edge.

Canada 12" promo [Sire/Reprise 92 0986-0]
As is custom in Canada, promotional 12"s are commercial ones stamped with English and French promo warnings in gold ink on the back of the sleeve.

Canada 7" promo [Sire/Reprise 92 78377]
Although this single was not released on 7" format in Canada, a promo version was still pressed. This promo is backed with the song "Disappointed" instead of featuring a repeat of the title track on the flip like its American counterpart. The record comes in a generic white WEA die-cut paper sleeve and has a solid centre on which is printed the usual 'Promo Only Not For Sale' warning. The labels are the usual Sire ones, with blue Sire logo at the top, Reprise logo and production credits on the left, catalogue number and publishing credits on the right, title and recording credits at the bottom, and Sire/WEA Canada credits around the bottom edge.

EEC 7" [EMI 006 20 2603 7]
A 7" edition was made in the EEC for the German and Dutch markets, and also perhaps those of France, Scandinavia and other smaller countries of central Europe. It looks very much like its British counterpart, the front artwork is the same, but the sleeve is made of thinner paper, it opens at the top, and there is no cut-out part to facilitate access to the record. The text on the back is slightly different. The gold catalogue number in the top right corner was replaced with the catalogue numbers for the various formats, printed in white beneath the barcode in the bottom left corner. The His Master's Voice logo appears in black instead of gold, a label code was added next to it and the line "New Album: Viva Hate" appears beneath it. The EMI credit was moved from the center to the right side, below the paragraph of credits. The labels look like the British ones, they are blue with black text, with a His Master's Voice logo at the top and "45 RPM" graphics on the right, but the record has a large hole at its centre. Many minor changes and additions were made to the text. A German credit ending in "Made In EEC" was added around the bottom edge, a GEMA box was added on the left side, the catalogue number was changed and a few credits were moved around.

EEC 12" [EMI 060 20 2605 6]
This edition shows the usual expected 12" variation of the artwork on the front. The barcode on the back was moved from the bottom left corner to the top right one, and the catalogue number usually found there was replaced with the catalogue numbers for this 12" format as well as those of the 7" and cd-single and a French price code. Dutch, French and German printing and distribution credits were added in the bottom right corner beneath the usual EMI credit. The record is slipped inside a white paper inner sleeve. The labels look like the British ones, they are blue with black text, with a His Master's Voice logo at the top and "45 RPM" graphics on the right. Many minor changes and additions were made to the text. A German credit ending in "Made In EEC" was added around the bottom edge, a GEMA box was added on the left side, the catalogue number was changed and a few credits were moved around.

EEC 7" test pressing [EMI 006-2026037]
The discovery of this test pressing for the EEC 7" tells us that it was pressed in Germany. The record has generic white labels with black printed text: "Unverkauflich Musterplatte" on the left, the side identification on the right and legal credits around the bottom edge. The catalogue number was stamped in blue in the bottom half. The record usually comes inside a paper sleeve that is mostly white, with only the line "Muster zu Ihrer Information" repeated at the top in black. Release information was added beneath that, in handwriting: "006-2026037", "Morrissey", "Everyday Is Like Sunday", "Disappointed". The back of the sleeve is all white. Some copies have been reported to be circulated inside a stock sleeve.

Germany press sheet
The "Everyday Is Like Sunday" single was promoted in Germany with EEC 7" copies paired with a black and white "7inc" press release. This press release is the size of the 7" sleeve and was therefore slipped inside it for distribution. It has the "7inc" logo at the top and is dated "31.05.88".

Italy 7" [EMI 06 202603-7]
The Italian 7" shows the usual 7" artwork on the front. The sleeve is made of rough paper instead of card, it still opens from the side but there is no indentation to make access to the record easier. There is no gold text on the back, all of it is printed in the same pink as the song titles. The catalogue number in the top right corner was changed for the Italian one and the EMI credit at the bottom was moved from the centre to the left, beneath the barcode. A EMI Italiana credit was added beneath that. The labels look like the British ones, they are blue with black text, with a His Master's Voice logo at the top and "45 RPM" graphics on the right, but the record has a large hole at its centre. The catalogue number on the right was changed for the Italian one, a "S.I.A.E." box was added on the left, a EMI Italiana credit was added to the ones printed along the edge and a few minor changes were made in the content and position of the other credits.

Italy 12" [EMI/HMV 14 202605-6]
The sleeve of the Italian 12" is made of particularly thin card and opens at the top. It shows the usual 12" artwork on the front. There is no gold text on the back, all of it is printed in the same pink as the song titles. The catalogue number in the top right corner was changed for the Italian one and a EMI Italiana credit was added beneath the usual EMI credit in the bottom left corner. Because of the sleeve in which this record was distributed, there is no inner sleeve, although many collectors have since added one for safer storage. The labels are just like the British ones, they are blue with black text, a His Master's Voice logo at the top and "45 RPM graphics on the right, but the catalogue number was changed for the Italian one, a "S.I.A.E." box was added on the left, a EMI Italiana credit was added to the ones printed along the edge and a few minor changes were made in the content and position of the other credits.

Italy 12" promo [EMI/HMV 14 202605-6]
Promotion of this single was done via stock copies of the 12" format with the words "campione gratuito" punched in one corner of the sleeve.

Philippines 7" [EMI 73-x-371]
The edition of "Everyday Is Like Sunday" made in the Philippines has beige and red EMI labels on which the EMI name is printed in huge red letters over the left half, with the PARI publishing rights logo in white over it. Titles and composer credits are found top right next to a red EMI logo. The catalogue number and label credits are found at the very right, and Morrissey's name and production credits bottom right. It is very difficult nowadays to find a copy without any handwriting on the labels. It appears that 7"s in the Philippines never came in a picture sleeve. In rare instances some copies have been seen in a generic Dyna or a non-labelled paper record bag. In the latter case the pairing probably occurred a posteriori.

Philippines 12" [EMI EMI-38]
The 12" edition from the Philippines has beige and red EMI labels on which the EMI name is printed in huge red letters over the left half, with the PARI publishing rights logo in white over it. Titles and composer credits are found top right next to a red EMI logo. The catalogue number and label credits are found at the very right, and Morrissey's name and production credits bottom right. The record comes in one of two different sleeves. Some copies were distributed in an orange/red generic Dyna sleeve with black "12 INCH" ruler graphics on the left. Others copies came a generic blue '12" EP' sleeve with the words "maxi-single" repeated in pink in the bottom half. Both sleeve variations are die-cut to show the labels and have a big black rectangular sticker in the top right corner showing the 7" variation of the "Everyday Is Like Sunday" artwork, as well as the catalogue number and credits in white. There is no inner sleeve.

Portugal 7" [EMI 20 2603-7]
The Portuguese 7" looks very much like its British counterpart but its sleeve is made of paper and it opens from the top. There is an indentation at the back of the sleeve to facilitate access to the record. The front shows the usual 7" variation of the artwork. The back shows the same alternate pose of Morrissey, but many minor changes were made in the text and its layout. The gold catalogue number in the top right corner was dropped and replaced with the Portuguese catalogue number in white beneath the barcode in the bottom left corner. The song titles are printed in white instead of pink. The His Master's Voice logo and the credits are printed in white instead of gold. White Valentim De Carvalho credits were added in the bottom right corner. The labels are modelled on the labels of the UK 7". They are also blue with black text over a solid centre with His Master's Voice logo at the top and "45 RPM" on the right, but feature fewer credits and Morrissey's name was given more emphasis than the song titles. The credits around the edge were replaced with Portuguese ones.

South Africa promo 7" [EMI PS 103]
"Everyday Is Like Sunday" was never released as a single in South Africa and this item is in fact a promo for the South African edition of the "Viva Hate" album. Click on latter link for information.

Spain 7" [HMV/Hispavox 545 20 2603-7]
The Spanish 7" shows the usual 7" variation of the artwork on the front. The back is similar to the back of the UK 7". The gold catalogue number in the top right corner was changed for the Spanish one plus a Hispavox logo. The barcode in the bottom left corner was removed and the His Master's Voice logo moved to the edge. Spanish credits were added in gold beneath it. The sleeve opens from the side. The labels are blue with black text as in the UK. The text differs only by a few minor details. The catalogue number on the right side was replaced with a publishing number while the one on the left side was replaced with the Spanish catalogue number. The EMI credits beneath that were replaced with EMI Odeón Espana credits and the legal warning around the edge was changed for one in Spanish. Minor changes were made in the content and position of the other credits. The fact that the record has a large opening means that a portion of the '4' in the "45 RPM" graphics was cut out.

Spain 12" [HMV/Hispavox 549 20 2605 6]
Of all international 12" editions of this single, this is the only one with a slightly different front artwork. It is the usual 12" variation, but the words "Maxi Single 45 RPM" appear boxed, in black, in the top left corner above Morrissey's name. The catalogue number in the top right corner on the back of the sleeve was changed for the Spanish one and a Hispavox logo. The barcode in the bottom left corner was dropped. The EMI credits were translated to Spanish and augmented with a Hispavox credit. The record is slipped inside a white paper inner sleeve. The labels are blue with black text with a His Master's Voice logo at the top and "45 RPM" on the right, as in the UK. The text differs only by a few minor details. The catalogue number on the right side was replaced with a publishing number while the one on the left side was replaced with the Spanish catalogue number. The EMI credits beneath that were replaced with EMI Odeón Espana credits and the legal warning around the edge was changed for one in Spanish.

USA 7" [Sire/Reprise 9 27837-7]
Of all international 7" editions of this single, this is the only one with a slightly different picture sleeve. The front artwork is the usual 7" variation, but "Everyday Is Like Sunday" is printed in red along the sleeve's edge on the right. The front of the sleeve is longer than the back, making it easier for the owner to access the record which comes out the top. The back shows the usual alternate Morrissey pose, but minor changes were made to the text and its layout. The song titles are printed in red instead of pink, there is no gold catalogue number in the top right corner, the His Master's Voice logo next to the barcode was removed, Sire/Warner credits were added in yellow/gold beneath the barcode, with Sire and Reprise logos of the same colour next to them, and the availability of the title track on the "Viva Hate" album is mentioned above the paragraph in the bottom right corner. The labels are the usual yellow Sire ones, with blue Sire logo at the top, black Reprise logo on the left and a barcode top right. The centre is a large jukebox-style hole.

USA 12" [Sire/Reprise 9 20986-0]
The American 12" shows the usual 12" variation of the artwork on the front. The back of the sleeve is modelled on the back of the UK 12", but there is no catalogue number in the top right corner, the song titles are printed in a bigger font, the His Master's Voice logo in the bottom left corner was changed for Sire and Reprise logos, additional Sire and Reprise USA credits are found in a small font beneath the barcode, and the availability of the title track on the "Viva Hate" album is mentioned above the paragraph of credits in the bottom right corner.

USA 7" promo [Sire/Reprise 7-27837-A]
The American promo 7" features "Everyday Is Like Sunday" on both sides. The labels are identical to those on the stock edition but the barcode at the right was replaced with the promo warning "Promotion Not For Sale" and the word "Stereo". Unlike the "Suedehead" promo 7" which came in a generic paper record bag, this one comes in the usual stock sleeve without any promo marking.

USA 12" promo [Sire/Reprise 9 20986-0]
This single was also promoted via stock copies of the 12" format stamped with a promo warning in gold ink on the front of the sleeve.
