Friday’s Child (Nancy Sinatra)

30 JULY 1966


Nancy Sinatra's mean, moody, bluesy 'Friday’s Child' was at its peak US Billboard Hot 100 chart position of #36 on this day in 1966. As with 'These Boots Are Made for Walkin'' and a lot of her other work around this time, it was written and produced by Lee Hazlewood (who had previously recorded this song himself). Nancy's version failed to chart in Britain. It makes a fine album track, but was perhaps not a commercially-astute choice for a single at that time.
