"Monday, Monday" is a 1966 song written by John Phillips and recorded past the Mamas & the Papas, using background instruments played by members of the Wrecking Crew[ane] for their 1966 anthology If Yous Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears. Information technology was the group's only #1 hit on the U.South. Billboard Hot 100,[2] and the offset time in history a song by a mixed gender group reached the tiptop of the charts.[3]
Phillips said that he wrote the song quickly, in about xx minutes.[4] The song includes a meaning suspension before the coda, which modulates upwardly a semitone.
On March 2, 1967, the Mamas & the Papas won a Grammy Award for this vocal, in the category Best Popular Functioning by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
The vocal was performed at the Monterey Pop Festival (California) in 1967. The performance was filmed for the movie of the festival, simply not included in the terminal print.
The song appears on the soundtrack of Michael Apted's flick Stardust.
