"Everyday I Love You Less and Less" is a song by English indie rock band Kaiser Chiefs. It is the opening track on their first album, Employment (2005), and was released on the B-Unique label as the album's third single (not counting re-issues) on 16 May 2005. The song peaked at number 10 on the UK Singles Chart, their second top-10 single of the year. Outside the UK, the song peaked at number 52 in the Netherlands.
Background
Singer Ricky Wilson described the song as a "hate ballad" and added, "Usually bands release for their third single a love ballad but we decided to do the opposite. It's for anyone who's ever split up with someone and they don't leave you alone." Guitarist Simon Rix added: "I was describing that song the other day, you think it's going to be quite bouncy but it's actually as negative as you can be!"[1]
Dorian Lynskey of The Guardian wrote that the Kaiser Chiefs had been labeled as has-beens by 2003-2004, and they were desperate to build a fanbase to impress record labels: "The need to make an impression while bottom of the bill in a tiny venue explains all the ohhhhhhs and nanananas and oft-repeated choruses that set up shop in the listener's brain after the first listen."[2]
Music video
The music video was directed by Tim Pope. It features the band wearing skeleton costumes.[3]
