There have been some great songs so far.
But here's the toughest one: songs containing Thursday.

Yes, it's Americana from me again!
I have -
"Thursday" from the "Mercy" CD by Sam Baker.
"Like A Summers Thursday" from the "A Gentle Evening With Townes Van Zandt" CD by Townes Van Zandt.
Not a song...
...but there was a band called Sweet Thursday, fronted by erstwhile Cat Stevens sidesman, Alun Davies. I owned it for a while, before it got lost in the great 6th form album theft incident (along with my first copy of Bongos over Balham, Pacific Ocean Blue and the first 3 of ELP, making the thief surely very confused about genres) Somewhat fey, almost melodic, I seem to recall, what they used to call soft rock, in the old virgin records adverts of the day.
