Hell yeah. Like I said before, she came back with some really strong songs and then that dud was released to radio, making her transformation into an AC grandma complete. Whoever had the idea to release that bland turkey to radio as a single was higher than Whitney after a freebase weekend with Bobby.

like the song, but love the video. She looks so beautiful in it!

I love Stevie when she sings Christine McVie songs.

Could be a Chris song, huh? I never thought of that.

No. I was just making a point of how bland and AC Chris' songs are....like Every Day.

Is it possible to express the range of emotions you feel when reading something solely in smilies?

As much as I hate to say it, it wouldn't really matter what stevie released for radio, if your not the "hot thing of the moment" radio couldn't care less. I think say you will was VERY "catchy", VERY "Comercial" and VERY "radio friendly"

, but
was again wasted on radio that just threw it away

. IMHO......

I love this song. I reminds me that my Mom finally decided to like a Stevie song, and she gave Stevie a chance. Now Mom's got cancer, and when I hear this song I am going to think of the day we painted my apartment, and heard TISL for the first time. "Every Day" isn't going to rock your socks off, and why should it, anyway? It should have been pitched better to adult contemporary stations. I do not think I EVER heard it on the radio, and I know people my Mom's age (late 60's) would have enjoyed it.

Her delivery of that part is so honest and sincere, it still makes me weep. And the strings and lush arrangement. I'm sorry if y'all don't like it but I do. I just wanted to defend this sweet little song.

I also really like this song, and the video.

BTW, I'd be very interested to know what that recipe calls for!!!

It was nice to hear this story. I think I am also attached to this song in a simmilar way. My mom loves this song and the first time that I heard it was when she sent it to me when I was living in australia (VERY far away) and My mom sent this song to me with a tape of her singing along and deticating it to me. It may sound cheezy, but it was special.

See I thought she sounded better on some of the live versions.

"Every Day" is an innocuous enough little song. It'll never be one of my all-time favorites, but I still quite enjoy it... especially the verses.

The Adult Contemporary genre isn't all bad, and most of Stevie's '70s and early '80s fans are the ones listening to the AC stations anyway. She had much stronger material on 'TISL' than "Every Day," but I can't imagine any of the tracks getting much more airplay than "Every Day" did as it is.

I'm with ya all the way(except for the weeping part).

It's one of my favorites from her "masterpiece".

See, you're the person who's supposed to write the long-winded, flowery defense of the song, detailing how it has affected your life significantly, etc. The crappiest of Stevie songs wait for you to write those affirmations about them. They count on you. If Le Stew can't do that for "Every Day", what does the song have? Nothing.
