The Story
Time – The Musical is an original A Frank Angle production featuring songs about time with each act featuring songs following a particular theme.
Program (Past posts)
Act 1: Time
Act 2: Specific Time
Act 3: Years
Act 4: Months
Act 5: Days and Weekdays
Act 6
Act 6 only features songs with Weekend, Saturday, or Sunday (or their plural forms) in the song title; but the challenge for attendees is no duplicates.
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. But, I don’t mind unembedding. .
Announcement
Ladies and gentlemen, to kickoff Act 6, a grand AFA welcome to a classic group doing a quirky song from their Night at the Opera album … Welcome, Queen with Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon.

This is better known by the Stones, but here’s Friday Afternoon, by

Guap,
Well now … intriguing … Friday afternoon does kickoff the weekend …. thus Friday on My Mind is kind of a fit …. and you are the first to lead the lead the way (which may have been part of your plan) …. so are you going to return with a song with Weekend, Saturday, or Sunday?

I think At Last is hands down one of my favorite songs, just because of the depth her voice brings to it.

Well well … two interesting additions …. Sunday is definitely in Bowie style … and Elton’s big hit was during my college years …. and oh how we loved that song! There was a big disco about 20 miles from campus … an old bowling alley … large …. they had a DJ and a drummer who played along … There were several in the state …. I just found this http://webnerhouse.com/2009/07/29/dixie-electric-company/

My offering for the musical is from Sam Cooke – Another Saturday Night
http://grooveshark.com/s/Another+Saturday+Night/2choc9?src=5
Do I break rules by not going with Youtube?
My golf game was ON yesterday. The course is rather cramped as it sits right along I-80. The par is 34 as it has no par 5s on the front 9. I shot 37 with pars and 3 bogies. The course is terribly dried out in the fairways. Roll was excellent. Bounce was unpredictable. I got some really good breaks.

An artist doesn’t get a double very often, so well done with Bowie getting it. I didn’t know the Blondie tune … but hey, it works!

Another great challenge, Frank! Lameadventures beat me to “A Sunday Kind of Love” so I’ll step back a day to Chicago’s fabulous hit “Saturday, In the Park” (. . .

OK, Frank, I know this is late, but I couldn’t hold back. El Guapo submitted a Friday song, so it started me thinking and here is one of my favorites. “Friday Night at the Cadillac Club” by jazz saxophonist extraordinaire Bob Berg, who tragically died at age 51 in a car accident. We heard him and guitarist Mike Stern play in a Pittsburgh club several years ago; it was simply the most transcendent club concert experience I’ve ever had – great players, deeply inspired. Here’s a video of them together on this song, at breakneck speed. For the jazz fusion aficionado 🙂 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFEMMoKdkss

Wait just a minute. I am late to the party, but I do believe that I already gave a clue to the best of all the weekend songs when I entered it for the weekday post: the Monkees, Another Pleasant Valley Sunday: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUzs5dlLrm0
I figured someone would post it. Apparently I am the only one old enough to remember it…

I didn’t think there was anybody older than me.
But if you’d started with this song, it would have been OK. Because I still would have gotten there first — seeing as how I did it for the previous post. Everybody says I am ahead of the game …
