About this item

‘Everybody’s Happy Nowadays’ was the band’s 8th single, released on United Artists Records and hitting the UK charts in 1979. Recorded at Stockport’s legendary Strawberry Studios, by legendary Producer Martin Rushent and with artwork by legendary Graphic Designer Malcolm Garrett, it went onto become one of the band’s most popular songs. This Non-Album Single by the Pioneers of Independent Music, was subsequently incorporated into the now-classic ‘Singles Going Steady’ Buzzcocks compilation, which the NME called "a vital part of the inspiration for the new pop age - pop of such intense truthfulness, it literally hurts" with Rolling Stone Magazine ranking it amongst their 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
