let’s face it we all hate mondays
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten songs about Monday for this list
we’re looking at the songs that directly
reference Monday in the lyrics
unfortunately that means we will be
leaving off New Order’s Blue Monday as
well as its ever so popular covered by
orgy
number ten
come Monday Jimmy Buffett hit no to San
Francisco for the Labor Day weekend show
we kick off our list with a laid-back
artist and his soothing Monday morning
sounds written on tour for his wife
Jimmy Buffett sings about a hazy la week
and the rock-and-roll truth about hush
puppies
with soothing acoustic guitar and
Buffett’s classic soft vocals the song
became Jimmy’s first top 40 hit single
and has become a concert staple ever
since
yo that much apart up and down it’s a
love song at heart and perfect for
star-crossed lovers come rain or come
shine or come Monday it’ll be alright
come Monday number nine Monday morning
Fleetwood Mac
talk about a case of turn back the clock
Monday rock as the first joint of
Fleetwood Mac’s 10th album this
energetic track tumbles down the rocky
road to romance but land safely on
Monday morning
in other words weekdays are for makeups
and breakups fridays for hitting the
road while monday starts the process all
over again
this song marked the beginning of a new
era in Fleetwood Mac’s career as Stevie
Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham had
recently joined the band and proceeded
to make Monday mornings a little easier
for all of us
number eight New Moon on Monday Duran
Duran here’s a classic 80s track that
will get you up and dancing on your
otherwise dull and routine Monday
featuring some seriously ridiculous
lyrics and an even more ridiculous music
video Duran Duran leaves the listener
guessing as to what it could all mean is
the song about revolution is it about
having to deal with the past love
whatever it is these guys celebrated the
new moon of Monday with the best damn
fire dance the world has ever seen
hilarious as it was
number seven Monday morning Church Alan
Jackson
you left your BA laundress so I put it
in through oh you know we couldn’t
forget to put a little country twang in
our list accompanied by the angelic
voice of Patty Loveless Alan Jackson
sings about a man struggling with the
death of his wife and his crumbling
faith lifts my heart as Monday morning
church while Monday morning church makes
our days a little less chaotic we’d be
lying if we said it didn’t cause us to
break down just a little yes for me
without your love I don’t have
finding a spot on the Billboard Hot 100
and finding an even higher spot on the
US Hot Country Songs chart Alan Jackson
could probably sing about any day of the
week and we would enjoy it
as a Monday morning sure nothing ever
seems to fit hanging number six rainy
days and Monday’s the Carpenters rainy
days and Monday’s always get me dressed
this Monday morning jam is the ultimate
song to get your day started oh wait
that’s the next one feeling like at them
below and well this song will probably
make you want to call in sick and watch
house of cards all day there’s nothing
happy about this tune although it does
feature one killer saxophone solo at the
midway mark
despite the song’s negativity you really
can’t blame them for releasing this
track hitting number one on the adult
contemporary charts the song struck a
chord with the masses and became one of
the duo’s greatest hits
me too
number five Blue Monday Fats Domino
don’t confuse this title with New
Order’s club hit this was the original
Blue Monday soaked and rhythm and blues
lyrically bats takes us on a journey
beginning with the first day of the week
and makes six more stops until the
inevitable return of a messy Monday
yeah the song’s lyrics make it clear
that Monday is a drag but that Fats
Domino flavor makes it worthwhile
Blue Monday has been covered by the
likes of Bob Seger for the Roadhouse
soundtrack and was even performed by
Fats Domino himself in the 1956 film the
girl can’t help it
number four Monday
Wilco
after a long weekend Monday is the time
to reflect and Wilco serves as the
perfect alt rock band for a morning
backdrop
for their second album the chicago-based
groups sang about getting high and a
good time Charlie dreaming of a career
like those world record players in Japan
musically Wilco knows how to wail and
lyrically they weave together a
fun-loving joint tinged with rebellion
with an explosive sound and even more
explosive vocals coming from the latter
half of the track monday makes us want
to just get up and rock out
number three I don’t like Mondays the
Boomtown Rats Pelican chip right ahead
it switched to overload this new wave
song has often been labeled as a one-hit
wonder of the 80s but it was released in
the late 70s after a rather dark
incident
I don’t lack
when a 16 year old went on a shooting
spree and offered up I don’t like
Mondays as a reason Bob Geldof Peach’s
father was inspired to write this catchy
number down
lyrically the Boomtown Rats hover over
the deadly truth which makes the song
accessible for anybody dealing with a
case of the Mondays
the whole day down
number two Monday Monday the Mamas and
the Papas Monday
so good to me back in 1966 the Mamas and
the Papas released a Monday song of
unrequited love and decades later they
continued to entertain us with their
matching green jeans and funky threads
this 60s classic became the group’s only
number-one hit and earned them a Grammy
Award for Best Pop Performance not bad
for a song written in 20 minutes
Millennials may recognize Monday Monday
from the 2010 Will Ferrell film the
other guys while older folks probably
cry themselves to sleep at least once in
their life while listening to this
mildly depressing track even so it
remains one of the best
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions begone
in the air
woke up this morning with the money more
number one Manic Monday the bangles
many artists have written about the
trials and tribulations of Monday but it
was the bangles who captured the essence
of a waking life Monday moment
while most nomadic Monday is one of the
definitive pop tracks of the 80s you
might be surprised to learn that prints
actually wrote this song back in 1984
ooh
with a reference to rudolph valentino in
the first verse the song is inherently
classic and confronts all the realities
of a routine Monday we wish it was
Sunday too
so do you agree with our selections what
is your favorite Monday song
