Composition
"Every Day Is a Holiday" was written by Perry and produced by Duke Dumont.[1] Lyrically, the song talks about how the best Christmas gift one can receive is love. It features a background choir as Perry sings the chorus:<poem style="margin-left:2em"> We don't need a thing under the tree You give me all I need Every day is a holiday When you're the reason to celebrate Every day is a holiday When you're the reason</poem>
The track contains a "'70s disco essence and a big ol' thumping bassline".[2] It is a gospel-inspired dance track,[3] and Perry's first Christmas song.[4]
Release and promotion
The song was released on November 23, 2015.[5] The same day, it was featured in a two-minute commercial for H&M's 2015 holiday campaign. It features Perry interacting with gingerbread men, presents, and large teddy bears while sporting various holiday-themed clothes made by the store.[6][2] The commercial was directed by Jonas Åkerlund and filmed in July 2015.[7] Perry herself described it as "very jolly",[5] and was happy to wear H&M's clothes in the video since "H&M has been a part of the evolution of my personal style since I was 13, when I would start to incorporate fun, affordable H&M pieces into my vintage wardrobe".[1]
Reception
Lara O'Reilly of Business Insider criticized the video as "bizarre"[8] while IdolatorШаблон:'s Bianca Gracie described it as "slightly cheesy but fun".[9] Writing for Fuse, Jeff Bejamin praised the song as "catchy" and ranked it number one on a "Best Holiday Songs of 2015" list.[3] VH1 also gave a positive review, calling the commercial "fun" and "energetic" and felt Perry's outfits were "cute".[10] Lauren Valenti from Marie Claire dubbed the song "a track filled with good tidings".[11] In a negative review, Matt Miller from Esquire felt the video was "a hellish non-denominational land of cheer".[12] Glamour writer Christopher Rosa ranked it as Perry's 7th worst song, adding that the H&M campaign it was made for is "exactly where it should stay".[13]
