Promotion:
UK: This single was promoted by the second in a series of promo 12"s (EMI 12POPDJ1619; view in left frame) of different colours for Morrissey's first six singles. This one is slipped inside a grey sleeve. A one-track promo video was also distributed.

Australia: A one-song promo 12" of "Everyday Is Like Sunday" has been reported, but this is unconfirmed.

Brazil: A specially-pressed 12" of "Everyday Is Like Sunday" (9951093) was used for promotional purposes. It was slipped inside a generic die-cut sleeve with a title and artwork sticker in the top corner. The sleeve was available in two versions, light blue and orange/red.

Canada: Gold stamped copies of the 12" were sent to radio and record stores for promotion. A promo 7" (Sire/Reprise, 92 78377) was also specially pressed and distributed inside a generic record label sleeve, despite that single not being available in that format in Canada. Unlike the USA promo 7", this one is backed by the usual b-side "Disappointed".

Germany: Copies of the EEC 7" were sent for promotion with a 'fact sheet' in German.

Italy: Copies of the stock 12" punched with the words 'campione gratuito' were used for promotion.

South Africa: One-sided 7"s (PS103) were pressed for promotion, probably for the "Viva Hate" album because "Everyday Is Like Sunday" wasn't released as a single in that country.

Spain: Copies of the stock 7" were stamped in ink on the sleeve for promotional purposes.

USA: Gold-stamped copies of the 12" and a promo 7" (Sire/Reprise, 7-27837-A) were sent to radio for promotion of this single. The promo 7" has the title track on both sides. A one-track promo cd of "Everyday Is Like Sunday" was also sent to radio, but this item was used mainly to promote "Viva Hate" and is discussed in the latter section. The video for "Everyday Is Like Sunday" was included on a Warner various artists sampler compilation dated 6-28-88 (A80850) as well as on issue #341 of the ETV various artists promo videos series, issue 65a of the various artists Telegenics promo videos series, the August 1988 issue of the Rockamerica promo videos series and a Wolfram compilation video intended for instore play.
