    Which day of the week is mentioned in the titles or lyrics of the best songs?

    Or do songs that mention every day top them all?

    There was a song that was around in the 1990's that had the line "... but Friday, I'm in Love.." sung by a bloke. He went through each day of the week in the chorus something like "Thursday doesn't even start..." I can hear the song in my head but cannot for the life of me remember the band. Great song though.

    EDIT: Skyla forgot about Google

    Great tune. My brother in law went to the same school has Craig. Southampton has a secondary school called Cantell. Didn't know him personally but I thought that a cool insight. He also did a song called "Walking Away" which still adore to this day.

    Here’s a way to find out. We have to do songs or lyrics by days of the week until we eliminate a day.

    First off, Manic Monday.

    my missus is French teacher and used to play this banger all the time. Apparently it helped her class of year 7s learn French. Not sure it fully counts and it does have all of the days of the week but still it is a good tune.

    My taste in music is very diverse. However I clarify I did know the song that The Cure produced but at the moment had a memory blank. In my defence the amount of information I have to remember on a day-to-day basis in my job especially will undoubtedly cause the odd blind spot. :p

    If I had missed it out it would be an accurate quotation of the lyrics, but I wanted the sentence to be correct in the sense of I don't like Monday's songs (as much as those of other days).

    Sometimes jokes aren't gramatically correct, don't you find?
