LLL!: Songs listing days of the week

- "I don't Like Mondays" by the Boomtown Rats

- "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting" by Elton John

- "Monday, Monday" by the Mammas & the Pappas

"Friday was the crucifixion, Saturday cremation under glass. The resurrection was on Sunday, no correction -- make it Monday, `cos Monday's when they come to take the trash!"

Revive, because they played "Saturday Love" at the roller rink last night. And to add Kacey Musgraves' "Lonely Weekend" to the list.

What's with the italics? Is "Saturday Love" just that powerful?

Velvet Underground - Coney Island Steeplechase

Let's see if I can turn off the italics.[/i]

Did it work?

My wife died on Friday night, Saturday she was buried
Sunday was my courting day, Monday I got married

Uncle Dave Macon - “Way Down the Old Plank Road”

monday, nothing
tuesday, nothing
wednesday and thursday nothing
friday, for a change a little more nothing
saturday once more nothing
sunday nothing

"Kyle's Mom Is a Bitch" from South Park, but it skips Thu and Fri.

Simon & Garfunkel: "Why Don't You Write Me"
TMBG: I Never Go to Work

Television Personalities - La Grande Illusion

"Monday she was so upset
Tuesday she was blue
Wednesday I telephoned her
Thursday, didn't know what to do
(Friday) so I telephoned again
(Saturday) (Sunday) but her mother said she was gone"

… Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run…

John Prine - "Quiet Man"

Last Monday night I saw a fight
Between Wednesday and Thursday over Saturday night
Tuesday asked me what was going on, I said,
"Sunday's in the meadow and Friday's in the corn."

hats off to an italics tag still exerting its power after 18 years</i>

A Dutch hit from 1979 by the Surinamese Bontjie Stars, “Ma-di-wo-do”:

would you please check your “MaDiWoDo” / and tell me when you’re still free
would you please check your “MaDiWoDo” / and then make a date with me
free on Monday? / free on Tuesday? / free on Wednesday? / free on Thursday? / free on Friday? / free on Saturday or Sunday?
Ma-Di-Wo-Do-Vrij-Za-Zo / oh I really want you so

Related – and actually preceding it, this 1977 hit from Dutch Rhythm Steel And Show Band, “January, February”:

They even took the song to the UK charts later that year, albeit under a different moniker: "The Calendar Song" by Trinidad Oil Company. And then in 1979 it was covered by Boney M on their Oceans of Fantasy album, as, have a guess, “Calendar Song (January, February)”.

(“Ma-di-wo-do” happens to be a jam as well btw, especially in italics!)

monday, nothing
tuesday, nothing
wednesday and thursday nothing
friday, for a change a little more nothing
saturday once more nothing
sunday nothing
