The song stayed in the Top 40 four weeks longer than "Sunday Will Never Be the Same", which peaked higher on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[2] "Lazy Day" was featured on The Ed Sullivan Show[3] and sold over one million copies.

Critical reception

Written by George Fischoff and Tony Powers, the song received generally positive reviews and is fondly remembered. According to AllMusic, "Lazy Day" "...is a giddy joy no matter what."[4] Despite calling the lyrics frothy, The Milwaukee Journal writer Dick Young called the melody magnetic.[5]
