Listen to Day is a 1960 album by the American singer Doris Day. The album mostly consists of Day's singles from the 1950s.[2]

In March 1960 Billboard magazine reported that Columbia Records was declaring April of that year 'Doris Day Month' and had released Listen to Day as a limited release available with every purchase of Day's album What Every Girl Should Know.[3] Allmusic rated the album 3 stars out of 5.

It peaked at 26 on the Billboard 200 album chart.[2] Day's biographer Tom Santopietro described Listen to Day as a "mixed bag" that was "hastily put together to capitalize on Day's extraordinary popularity" and that it featured "too many mediocre songs".[2]
