"Rainy Days and Mondays" is a 1971 song by The Carpenters that went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was certified Gold by the RIAA. It was also the duo's fourth #1 song on the Adult Contemporary singles chart; however, it failed to chart in the United Kingdom until it went to #63 in a reissue there in 1993.
The song was composed in 1971 by then fairly unheard-of composers Roger Nichols and Paul Williams. It was released as the first track on the album Carpenters. The B-side on the single is "Saturday."
Olivia Newton-John, one of Karen's best friends, recorded a cover version of this song in her album Indigo: Women of Song as a tribute to Karen.

Love this song!! Brings back the memories of yesteryear : )
That's one of my favorite songs of the Carpenters. It was originally composed and also recorded later on by Paul Williams. Thanks for the post. God bless you always.
