T
he Story
Time – The Musical is an original A Frank Angle production featuring songs about time.
Program (Past posts)
Act 1: Time
Act 2: Specific Time
Act 3: Years
Act 4: Months
Act 5
Act 5 only features songs with Day, Days, or any weekday (Monday through Friday) in the song title; but the challenge for attendees is no duplicates. Well, outside of the extra challenge of avoiding weekends, Saturday, and Sunday.
Production Note
It has come to my attention that past acts have crashed browsers. Please 1) include the song title and artist in your text, and 2) paste the URL as part of your last line. The latter will provide a link, thus not embed the actual video. I will try to establish a pattern to follow in the first few comments, plus adjust when necessary.
Opening Act
Ladies and gentlemen, to kickoff Act 5, a grand AFA welcome to a group more than worthy of being in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame but is somehow omitted, it’s the Moody Blues with Tuesday Afternoon.

Love the picks above! I was going to go with a Jimmy Buffett song, but thought I’d pick a great song that’s been done and covered and covered again.
This version is a gem, but there are some many other great ones of the same song, I may spend tomorrow just going through them all.
I hope you enjoy this one as much as me, Frank.

In terms of not embedding … You’ve written you last sentence … period space paste … thus no Enter for a new line.
In terms of Billie Holliday, another great from a great. Unfortunately, to be best of my knowledge, Sunday is not within the weekend continuum of Monday through Friday. Hold on to this one for when the weekend act rolls around.

Oh that is a classic. Normally I would send offenders to receive slashes for taking on that has already been used. But, besides being a forgiving soul, I made the mistake by not writing the title and group in the response. In other words … my fault … So here’s one for you for that same era. It’s the Lovin’ Spoonful with What a Day for a Daydream. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwH4wPz-URM
