Seven Days of Music and Memories at wikiloops.con

We start with Monday then go right through until Sunday evening

Today it's all about Monday.

MUSIC
So many songs have been written about this day. Which is your favorite Monday song ?
I would pick "Rainy days and Mondays" by The Carpenters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MOODS
Most people dread returning to work after the weekend. However, in some Eastern countries, Monday is a day of rest and relaxation, and many businesses and schools are closed. What's your take ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MEMORIES
Did anything happen on a Monday that was good, maybe a baby born, a new job started, you met a significant person ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MYTHS (and legends)
Monday was named after the Moon and there has always been a connection with temporary madness. The word “lunatic” comes from the Roman goddess of the moon, Luna, who was said to ride her silver chariot across the dark sky each night ; Does the Moon have an affect on you ?

There's a rumor in certain cultures that a 'rabbit' lives on the Moon, and people also see a man on the Moon's surface. Some people still believe the Moon landings were faked.

I hope we can find some good Monday posts today.... links to songs, videos, lyrics, and your answers to my questions above maybe.

Thank you :)

Monday brought out some great songs, most I never heard before.

Without googling, here's some I know
Manic Monday = The Bangles
I don't like Mondays = The Boomtown Rats
Come Monday = Jimmy Buffett
Monday Monday = Mamas and Papas
Monday Morning = Fleetwood Mac

I'm not sure about the other days of the week now, I don't have anything for Tuesday that I can remember so I might have to write something :)

Tuesday is here for many but if you want to add another Monday just do it (no matter what day it is :)

So, let's move on

TUESDAY Tunes and Tracks, Talk and Times - what you got ?

Thanks for the adds everyone, old ones, new ones and neglected ones :)
I did produce a Tuesday song (with a hartmut template) today, but I'll just post the lyrics, check it out if you're interested :)


What can you do on Tuesday ?

I wrote to you on Tuesday to lift your Monday blues
I didn't have a lot to say, I didn't have no news
What can you do on Tuesday, the week has barely started
Mardi Gras is a party once Monday has departed

Tuesday is a 'choose day' and you should choose to smile
Try a little harder, go the extra mile
Tuesday's Child is full of grace, kindness good and rare
Some people think that Tuesday is neither here nor there

Tuesday moves us all along, we're going the right way
With W, T, F, coming up, make the most of today
Well have a happy Tuesday, that's all I've got to say . . . Take it hartmut :)

Lyrics by Shamika (Tuesday 24th October)

Lots of good vids about Tuesday, I was surprised - but not so many memories or happenings about Monday or Tuesday :( .
I must say that I was born on a Tuesday... but the rhyme doesn't work, I'm not at all graceful :)

Now, WEDNESDAY - or as it's called in USA, HUMP DAY because it's one last obstacle before the wind down to the weekend for most of us.

What have you got on the theme of *Wednesday, *Midweek, *Hump Day, *Half way there... but steer clear of that rhyme again "Wednesday's Child is jull of woe" That might be too depressing :)
