I don't think the Ellington quite makes it. I'm looking for "regular" pop
tunes, not suites or tone poems or whatever. And I'd assume/hope that
"Thursday" would be in both title and somewhere in the lyrics.
I don't know the score to Pipe Dream but if any of its tunes have "Thursday"
in their title that would work.
Crap...now my mind is blanking. I thought I had a "Tuesday" song but now
can't think of it...help!
