"Ups and Downs: Early Recordings and B-Sides" is a B-Side compilation album by Saves the Day, released on Vagrant Records on August 24, 2004.

As the title suggests, it is a compilation of early recordings and B-sides, spanning from 1997, when they were known as Sefler to 2003's live reworking of "Jessie and My Whetstone". The compilation also includes the entire "I'm Sorry I'm Leaving EP", remastered and without the Modern English cover, "I'll Melt With You", as well as for the first time on CD, the EP's vinyl-only track "The Way His Collar Falls".
