Saturday's Child

Saturday's Child

"Saturday's Child" is a popular song, written by David Gates (later a member of the band Bread), and performed by The Monkees. The song is a electric-guitar based rock song, and some fans of The Monkees consider it to be unusually "tough" for their first album. The song is now widely regarded as one of their best album tracks, with AMG critic Matthew Greenwald saying that it has a "proto-heavy metal guitar riff" and it is "one of the more interesting curios of the early Monkees catalog". The song still gets regular play on Oldies radio stations, and has also been covered by several artists. The song is also featured on several "Greatest hits" albums by The Monkees.
