This song has absolutely -no- every right to be this good, what a wonderful piece of music.

Could have been a good pop song but became and extraordinary pop song thanks to the lead and rhythm guitarists who created an incredible guitar tapestry! WOW!!!

My friend George Crotty, a singer and record collector, was a personal friend of the Easy Beats and one of their greatest fans. One of the last things he said was how much he revered them and he showed me his folder that he said he was compiling for a book about them. Although he collected many records, I think they were always his favourites.

The guitar "small cacophony" shortly after beginning is simply adorable. Never tired to hear it.

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 tonight
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 tonight
Monday I'll have Friday on my mind

The Aussies that broke the ice. An iconic piece of history here.

A pivotal moment in Rock music history, this record introduced Australian Rock to the rest of the world. Band member George Young also wrote another worldwide hit from Down Under, "Love Is In The Air" by John Paul Young, and unleashed the fury called AC/DC. Good on you, mates.

One of my kid friends had the 45 back in the sixties and I used to wear, it, OUT. Still a great tune.

Bowie did a good version on Pin Ups as well. Great underrated album, with TTWD covering some of his favourite songs from 1964-67.

Trivia: around the time Friday on my Mind was starting to become an international hit, tge Easybeats' manager Mike Vaughn and longtime Aussie voiceover John Blackman (you've probably heard of him) worked together at a customs agent.

Can’t believe this was basically how AC/DC started
