'I Don't Like Mondays' is a song by Irish new wave group The Boomtown Rats about the 1979 Cleveland Elementary School shooting in San Diego. It was released in 1979 as the lead single from their third album, The Fine Art of Surfacing. The song was a number one single in the UK Singles Chart for four weeks during the summer of 1979,^[3] and ranks as the sixth biggest hit of the UK in 1979.^[4] Written by Bob Geldof and Johnnie Fingers, the piano ballad^[5] was the band's second single to reach number one on the UK chart.

Background and writing[edit]

According to Geldof, he wrote the song after reading a telex report^[6] at Georgia State University's campus radio station, WRAS, on the shooting spree of 16-year-old Brenda Ann Spencer, who fired at children in a school playground at Grover Cleveland Elementary School in San Diego, California, on 29 January 1979, killing two adults and injuring eight children and one police officer. Spencer showed no remorse for her crime; her explanation for her actions was 'I don't like Mondays. This livens up the day'.^[7] Geldof had been contacted by Steve Jobs to play a gig for Apple, inspiring the opening line about a 'silicon chip'.^[6] The song was first performed less than a month later.

Geldof explained how he wrote the song:

I was doing a radio interview in Atlanta with Johnnie Fingers and there was a telex machine beside me. I read it as it came out. Not liking Mondays as a reason for doing somebody in is a bit strange. I was thinking about it on the way back to the hotel and I just said 'silicon chip inside her head had switched to overload'.^[6] I wrote that down. And the journalists interviewing her said, 'Tell me why?' It was such a senseless act. It was the perfect senseless act and this was the perfect senseless reason for doing it. So perhaps I wrote the perfect senseless song to illustrate it. It wasn't an attempt to exploit tragedy.^[8]

Geldof had originally intended the song as a B-side, but changed his mind after the song was successful with audiences on the Rats' US tour.^[8] Spencer's family tried to prevent the single from being released in the United States.^[8]

In later years, Geldof admitted that he regretted writing the song because he 'made Brenda Spencer famous'.^[9]

In 2019 Bob Geldof and Johnnie Fingers reached an agreement in their dispute over who wrote the song, until then credited solely to Geldof. Fingers received a financial settlement and co-credit.^[10]

Chart performance[edit]

Despite reaching number-one in the United Kingdom, it only reached number 73 on the US Billboard Hot 100.^[11] The song was played regularly by album-oriented rock format radio stations in the United States throughout the 1980s, although radio stations in San Diego refrained from playing the track for some years to respect local sensitivities about the shooting.

“I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” is a sultry ode about feeling like life is hopeless without an ex-lover, written for the Fifty Shades of Grey sequel, Fifty Shades Darker. The song is performed.

In the UK the song won the Best Pop Song and Outstanding British Lyric categories at the Ivor Novello Awards.^[12]
