Have a Nice Day is an album by Swedish pop duo Roxette, released in March 1999. It was re-released later the same year, including three songs in Spanish (tracks 15-17). Released around the world apart from US (due to no record label) with sales thought to be in the region of 5 million up to 2006. 3 million of that in Europe.

"Wish I Could Fly", "Anyone", "Stars" and "Salvation" were released as singles. "Wish I Could Fly" was one of the most frequently played songs in Europe during 1999, and is seen as a comeback single. The single also just missed the top 10 in the UK. The 2nd single was not supported by tv stations due to the video showing the singer Marie Fredriksson killing herself which lead to the video being banned. "Stars" was a surprise hit more so than "Wish I Could Fly" in some places.
