The Cure - Friday I'm In Love 1992 “Friday I'm in Love“ is a song by British rock band The Cure. It is the second single taken from the album Wish (1992), and was a worldwide hit. It won the award for European Viewer's Choice for Best Music Video at the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards. Robert Smith, the song's primary writer, described it in 1992 as both “a throw your hands in the air, let's get happy kind of record“ and “a very naïve, happy type of pop song.“ The video, directed by Tim Pope, features the band performing the song in front of various backdrops on a soundstage, in homage to French silent filmmaker Georges Méliès (the appearance of characters in The Eclipse, or the Courtship of the Sun and the Moon). Throughout the video, the band play around with various props and costumes while several extras wander about, causing chaos and ultimately trashing the set. Tim Pope makes a cameo in the beginning, riding a rocking horse and yelling out high-pitched stage directions through a plastic megaphone after inhaling helium from a balloon. The final shot is of bassist Simon Gallup crouching and peering into the camera while wearing a bridal veil and holding some champagne. The producer of “Friday I'm in Love“, Dave M. Allen, makes an appearance in the background, holding up props too. Another oddity is the band's name on the drum - a scrawled “The Cures“ rather than the band's singular name. Lyrics I don't care if Monday's blue Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too Thursday I don't care about you It's Friday I'm in love Monday you can fall apart Tuesday Wednesday break my heart Oh, Thursday doesn't even start It's Friday I'm in love Saturday wait And Sunday always comes too late But Friday never hesitate I don't care if Monday's black Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack Thursday never looking back It's Friday I'm in love Monday you can hold your head Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed Or Thursday watch the walls instead It's Friday I'm in love Saturday wait And Sunday always comes too late But Friday never hesitate Dressed up to the eyes It's a wonderful surprise To see your shoes and your spirits rise Throwing out your frown And just smiling at the sound And as sleek as a shriek Spinning round and round Always take a big bite It's such a gorgeous sight To see you in the middle of the night You can never get enough Enough of this stuff It's Friday I'm in love I don't care if Monday's blue Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too Thursday I don't care about you It's Friday I'm in love Monday you can fall apart Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart Thursday doesn't even start It's Friday I'm in love Songwriters: Boris Williams / Porl Thompson / Perry Bamonte / Robert James Smith / Simon Johnathon Gallup Friday I'm In Love lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group #thecure #remastered #80smusic @Videos80s
