Saturday is one of the best nights of the week because most people are off work and love to go out and party. It also leaves a day on the weekend for recovery and rest to get us back to work for another week!
Here are 25 songs about Saturday (or have “Saturday” in the title):

9. “It Always Rains On Saturday” – Reba McEntire
Not all Saturdays are happy and carefree. Sometimes the heart gets beaten down on the day most associated with positive thoughts and leisure. Reba McEntire expresses a forlorn attitude in this track that many of us can relate to. The last portion of this song is truly heartbreaking, so listen to it prepared for some less inspired sentiments.
10. “Saturday” – Rebecca Black and Dave Days
We think that Rebecca Black did a great job at parodying her own (less than stellar) “Friday” song. Sometimes when you receive criticism from the rest of the world, it’s best to just accept it and get better. We commend Rebecca Black for doing just that with her song “Saturday” which is comparatively better than the aforementioned track. Listen to this one for another fun, young excitement track.
