"It's Been a Long Day" arrived in April 2022 as the fourth single from Here Comes Everybody, the second album by the Australian indie rock band Spacey Jane, and it's the band at its most exposed. Frontman Caleb Harper wrote it either side of a 2020 breakup: owning up to how much he'd loved her when anxiety and the weight of the COVID-19 pandemic had kept him from saying it to her face.
It sounds like it, too. It's a bleak, melancholic ballad, a sharp turn from their guitar-heavy earlier work, with acoustic guitar setting the mood before bass and drums come in. Triple J listeners voted it to number five in the Hottest 100 of 2022, and in 2024 it went gold in Australia.
