Day After Day (Badfinger song)

It was written by Pete Ham and produced by George Harrison, who also plays slide guitar on the recording.[6] Billboard said that "This driving rock ballad, penned by Pete Ham has it to re-establish [Badfinger] at the top of the chart once again."[8] Record World said that it is "produced in fine fashion by George Harrison" and that it should continue the group's streak of never missing with a single release.[9] Chris Evans chose it as an example of a Badfinger that shows that "though lyrical profundity may have been beyond them, there was plenty of mileage to be got out of the power ballad before Adrian Gurvitz and Michael Bolton came along."[11] Ultimate Classic Rock critic Michael Gallucci rated it as Badfinger's 2nd best song, highlighting Harrison's "distinctive guitar playing.
