abstract
  • %22Saturday's Child%22 is a popular song, written by David Gates and performed by The Monkees. The song is an electric guitar–based rock song, and some fans of The Monkees consider it to be unusually %22tough%22 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 %22proto-heavy metal guitar riff%22 and it is %22one of the more interesting curios of the early Monkees catalog%22. 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 %22greatest hits%22 albums by The Monkees. The song was originally the second track on their self-titled debut album The Monkees with Micky Dolenz on lead vocals. The promotional video, which aired during the 26 September 1966 %22Monkee vs. Machine%22 television show, features The Monkees playing around on the beach and having fun with five children (at any one time), in a dune buggy, on a swing set, on slides, on a jungle gym, on a horse, on unicycles, and on Honda Super Cub motorcycles, and hamming it up driving the Monkeemobile around Southern California.Herman's Hermits recorded a more acoustic version of the song and released it on their 1967 album There's a Kind of Hush All Over the World.
