Every Day (I Love You More)

"Every Day (I Love You More)" is a 1989 song recorded by Australian singer Jason Donovan. It was released on 28 August 1989 as the fifth and final single from his debut album, Ten Good Reasons. As with Donovan's other songs at the time, it was written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman. A brand new song, "I Guess She Never Loved Me" was recorded as the B-side, and has received praise for Donovan's vocal performance.[1] "Everyday (I Love You More)" was intended to be the follow up to the number one hit, "Too Many Broken Hearts", but Pete Waterman switched its release so that it followed "Sealed With a Kiss" instead.

Music video

Due to "Everyday" being the intended follow up to "Too Many Broken Hearts", two videos ended up being shot for the song, with the first recorded back-to-back with the video for "Sealed With A Kiss," during a single night of filming, and using the same artificial beach set.[1] That video, which featured a poorly-received dance sequence, was rejected by Donovan's record label and has never been released to the public.[1] The second video was shot in the UK, and features an obscured, rear-view cameo from the singer's then-girlfriend Kylie Minogue.[1]

Chart performance

"Every Day (I Love You More)" was the least successful release from this Ten Good Reason album; however, it started at number three in UK on 9 September 1989, then climbed to a peak of number two, being blocked from the number one slot by Black Box's "Ride on Time" which had its second of six consecutive weeks at number one,[1] and remained on the chart for ten weeks. It also reached number one in Ireland, was a top ten hit in Belgium (Flanders) and Finland where it peaked at number six and eight, respectively, and a top twenty hit in Denmark and Germany. The track was Donovan's first to fail to crack the Australian top 40, after a run of four top 10 hits, and marked the abrupt end of the artist's status as a major pop star in his home country;[1] similarly, it had a weak chart trajectory in the Netherlands, France and New Zealand where it also stalled around number 40.
