Day-In Day-Out (Wikipedia.org)

"Day-In Day-Out" is a track on David Bowie's album Never Let Me Down. It was issued as a single ahead of the album's release.

The song criticised the urban decay and deprivation in American cities at the time, concerned largely with the depths a young mother has to sink to in order to feed her child, including attempting to shoplift and become a prostitute.

Julien Temple's video made the message explicit, showing the young couple's struggle against an uncaring society, watched by a pair of angels through fake video cameras. This was banned by the BBC amongst others, even after edits removed the female protagonist's heavily implied rape, and an alternate version of a scene where the couple's child spells out "Mom", "Food" and "Fuck" in building blocks (representing the child's cycle of dependency; the alternate version had the child spell out the meaningless words "Mom", "Look" and "Luck") – as a result, EMI issued it on a video EP.

Many critics, both at the time and since, have accused the song of burying its message in over-produced, glossy surroundings. Others, usually a minority it has to be said, claim that this doesn't overpower the message.

Despite its sales being boosted by a limited-edition version of the 7" single, and two different 12" singles, "Day-In Day-Out" was considered a flop, reaching #17 in the UK charts, and #21 in the Billboard Hot 100.

Day in Day Out (Wikipedia.org)

"Day In Day Out", is a single from the UK rock band Feeder, and was the first single to be taken from their debut top 10 album Yesterday Went Too Soon.

It is one of very few Feeder songs that contains profanity; "Taste the bullsh*t on the plane/We just p*ss our lives away...", the promo CD for radio play blurred the words out making them hard to recognise. The lyrics refer to an employee doing the same menial daily tasks, and wanting to get away from it all. Grant once said that the distored vocal emulates that of a tannoy in a supermarket. The Dandy Warhols 2003 hit "We Used To Be Friends", duplicates the bassline from the track.

The track along with its video appeared at #70 on VH2's "Indie 500" rundown of 2004, proboards forum - VH2 Indie 500- Feeder fansite messageboard discussion thread which was a list of the channels top 500 indie tracks of all time. It finished ahead of Keane's "Somewhere Only We Know" by a relatively long mile within the top 100.

Despite reaching the top 40 (the cut-off point for tracks on the main album of The Singles), at the bands request it was not included on their singles album.

Day In, Day Out (Wikipedia.org)

Day In, Day Out is a popular song with music by Rube Bloom and lyrics by Johnny Mercer and published in 1939.

According to Alec Wilder the song, 56 measures long, has a wonderful, soaring melodic line, free from pretentiousness, but full of passion and intensity which is superbly supported by the lyrics. Although the catch phrase "day in—day out" sounds like a dull routine, Mercer uses exotic images to contrast with the boring sound of the phrase.
