'''''May Each Day''''' is a compilation album by American pop singer Andy Williams that was released in the UK in early 1966 by the CBS Records division of Columbia. A similar collection titled ''Andy Williams' Newest Hits'' had the same cover photo and design, but there were only five songs that they had in common.<ref>(1966) ''Andy Williams' Newest Hits'' by Andy Williams [album jacket].
