Best Songs for the Days of the Week

There are many great songs about Sunday. Think about it. In fact, there are many great songs entitled "Sunday Morning".

Vocativ studied 57 years of Billboard charts to see which days of the week get the most love from songwriters. As you'd likely guess, Sunday, Saturday, Monday and Friday are the big winners. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday get very little love.

Here are my favourite songs for each day of the week. We'll start with Sunday and work our way to Saturday.

Sunday

Sunday Morning - Velvet Underground

Monday

I Don’t Like Mondays - The Boomtown Rats

Tuesday

Ruby Tuesday - The Rolling Stones

Wednesday

Waiting for Wednesday - Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories

Thursday

Thursday's Child - David Bowie

Friday

Friday I’m in Love - The Cure

Saturday

Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting - Elton John

With apologies to No Doubt, U2, The Mamas & the Papas and New Order.
