Bobs, as I’ve always known them, are people called Bob. It’s how you would call out to them at a party or on the phone.

Every week, we get up and live through the same seven days of the week.
Sure, the days themselves are never quite the same, but the names never change.
It’s no wonder, then, that those days of the week are often the basis for popular music.
