Top singles from the past

9 May 2026

Californian beatniks THE MAMAS & THE PAPAS had several
hits in the colorful sixties. One of them was the timeless tune
MONDAY MONDAY about that awful first day of the week.

It topped the US Singles Charts 60 years ago today, on 9 May 1966.
The first song with a day of the week in the title that was at #1.

Also #1 in Canada and South Africa, and #3 in the UK.

Every other day, every other day
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah (yeah)
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
A-you can find me cryin’ all of the time
