The only songs with a day I've got are Black Sunday from Jethro Tull, and Saturday Night Holocaust from the Dead Kennedys. Seems like Sunday is pretty popular music day.

We'll let Stone Temple Pilots cover all of them with Days of the Week!

[xzzy]

Oddly there's relatively few songs about Friday, I assume because bands prefer to talk about depressing things and it's hard to be depressed at the end of a work week.

Nope only Monday - Thursday. Hence "Four days of the week, she thinks I'm the enemy."
