Music Monday: Boomtown Rats

I Don't Like Mondays.

Bob Geldof in The Wall

The background of this song makes it a bit more intense than simply not wanting to wake up for work. (A bit sad, yes?) Regardless, I love Bob Geldof's general weirdness and it translates well with this song from 1979. I remember when I first heard of the Boomtown Rats in high school, I was deeply confused as Bob Geldof plays the main character in Pink Floyd's The Wall and I definitely thought that he was Pink Floyd front man Roger Waters for awhile. I was sad that he wasn't though - I preferred his brand of strange over Mr. Waters.

Enjoy the song.
