"A New Day" is a single by English post-punk band Killing Joke. It was released by E.G. Records in July 1984 as a 7-inch and 12-inch single. The B-side to the 7" release was a remix of the song, named "Dance Day". The single reached No. 51 in the UK Singles Chart.[1][2] A promotional video was filmed for the song, the first time the band made a video for a non-album single.

The song was later included on the 2008 reissue of Night Time. "Dance Day" was later included on the compilation "Wilful Days" (mistakenly titled "A New Day").
