Just a Day, was Feeder's final single of 2001 and their last with drummer Jon Lee. It started off on the soundtrack of Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec, and then the "Seven Days in the Sun" single as a b-side. It was released as a single after encoragement from the bands fanbase on their messageboard.
Despite having already appreared in the top 20 earlier in the year as a b-side, the single A-side release stayed in the top 20 for 4 weeks and became the bands best-selling single. It instantly became a regular to end the bands live sets.

[edit] The music video
The video shows teenagers miming to the song in their bedrooms, it started off as a competition on the bands website "Feederweb", in which fans had to send in a video of themselves and the director chose the best ones.
Despite the mixed reception the video has within the fanbase (judging by the review on Feeder Fan Site), the video including the song itself have gained cult classic status.[1]
