"'One Perfect Day'" is a song written by Roger Hart-Wells and performed by the Australian band, Little Heroes. It was released in March 1982 as the lead single from their second studio album, 'Play by Numbers' (1982). The single entered the Australian Kent Music Report Singles Chart in April 1982 and peaked at No. 12.
In June 1982, Hart-Well said, "If this single had not succeeded, we probably would have gone off the road and had a long look at ourselves."
Background

He told Javier Encalada of 'The Northern Star', that he was watching the election of Margaret Thatcher in 1979 and thought of how Gandhi and Hall were in the United Kingdom.
