Friday On My Mind - Easybeats, The (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Friday On My Mind (Easybeats, The, 1967). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2023-12-17. "Keeping the Oldies & Classics Alive"
"Friday On My Mind," written by Harry Vanda and George Young, was the Easybeats' only charting recording reaching no. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1967 (Whitburn, 2013). Young, The Easybeats' guitarist, was the older brother of Angus and Malcolm Young of AC/DC, who also co-produced seven AC/DC albums along with Vanda, died in 2017. The Easybeats were one of the most popular 1960s artists coming out of Australia on the tails of the British invasion bands (D, Kreps, rollingstone, Oct. 23, 2017). The song was a huge hit in Australia, where it hit the no. 1 position on their charts and was a big hit in the US and UK (songfacts, 2023). In 2001, the song was voted the no. 1 release in 75 years on the Australasian Performing Right Association's Ten Best Australian Songs list (apraamcos, 2023). Unfortunately, "the group was not able to capitalize [on the hit single], falling victim to drug abuse, management struggles, and internal strife. It was six month before their next single, "Who'll Be The One" (songfacts, 2023).

Lyrics:
Monday mornin' feels so bad
Ev'rybody seems to nag me
Comin' Tuesday I feel better
Even my old man looks good
Wed'sday just don't go
Thursday goes too slow
I've got Friday on my mind
Gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl, she's so pretty
She looks fine tonight
She is out of sight to me
Tonight I'll spend my bread, tonight
I'll lose my head, tonight
I've got to get to night
Monday I'll have Friday on my mind
Do the five day grind once more
I know of nothin' else that bugs me
More than workin' for the rich man
Hey! I'll change that scene one day
Today I might be mad, tomorrow I'll be glad
'Cause I'll have Friday on my mind
Gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl, she's so pretty
She looks fine tonight.
She is out of sight to me
Tonight I'll spend my bread, tonight
I'll lose my head, tonight
I've got to get to night
Monday I'll have Friday on my mind
