Songs that mention specific dates

As I'm writing this, it's June 3 — or as Bobbie Gentry said in "Ode to Billie Joe," "the third of June, another sleepy, dusty, Delta day." That set me off on a tangent, thinking about songs that mention specific days or dates and wondering how full we could fill a calendar.

 

Here are a few other songs with dates either in the title or the lyrics — one for each month of the year. Can you think of others? Share them here!

I haven't come across songs with specific dates as their titles really. It's always years or months.. :')
This seems to be the only song with a specific date that I can think of:

spotify:track:5CvuiEJ8sHm5mVUCK83lCk:small 

A great song that I've liked for ages along with Acapella.

September 21 "September" Earth, Wind, and Fire

A little bit of a cheat, but how about "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot

The freighter sank on November 10 and while the date isn't specifically in the lyrics, he does reference "The gales of November". And of course, the song is about that specific date in history.

21st of December mentioned in “How to make gravy” - Paul Kelly
