| Song |
"Seven Day Fool" is an R&B song written by Billy Davis, and first recorded by Etta James for Argo Records (a subsidiary of Chess Records) in 1961. The track was released both on a 45 RPM single (Argo # 5402), paired with "It's Too Soon to Know", and on her album The Second Time Around (Argo # 4011). Although not a big hit upon release (# 95 US pop chart), the track has since become very well known on the Northern Soul and Mod scenes in the UK.
A second recording of "Seven Day Fool" has been made in 2007 by singer-songwriter Jully Black. It is the first single from Black's second album, Revival. It was released to Canadian radio in August 2007. As of November 2, 2007, it has peaked at number 9 on the Canadian Hot 100, becoming her first top 10 single. The song was mixed by Dylan "3-D" Dresdow.
The song became very successful in Canada, gaining a lot of radio airplay. In September 2007, the music video for "Seven Day Fool" was released. This song has recently been remixed by notable house producer Joe DiPadova.
