(Every Day Is) Halloween
"All Day" and "(Every Day Is) Halloween" are songs by American band Ministry, both written and produced by Al Jourgensen. These were originally released by Wax Trax! Records in 1985 as Ministry's “comeback” single following their departure from Arista Records, with "All Day" on the A-side and "(Every Day Is) Halloween" on the B-side, respectively. In 1987, these were included on Ministry's compilation Twelve Inch Singles (1981–1984). The remixed version of "All Day", titled “All Day Remix”, was featured on Ministry's 1986 album Twitch. “(Every Day Is) Halloween” has been featured in the 1998 Rhino Records compilation Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Halloween. Music writer Dave Thompson described "(Every Day Is) Halloween" as having been "adopted as the anthem of America's disenfranchised Gothic community." On October 31, 2019, the track was re-released as an acoustic version with the help of Dave Navarro on acoustic guitar. On October 30, 2020, Stabbing Westward released a cover. In 1988, Everyday (Is Halloween) was used in an Old Style Dry beer commercial in the US. This commercial popularized the song to be featured at dance clubs.
