[3] Lauren Ziegler from The Sydney Morning Herald called it a "bold move" for Black to make "Saturday".
[4] Drew Grant from The New York Observer called the video her most mature work yet, but went on to say that she is reflecting on her past: "Yet beneath the perky chords lies a refrain of sadness, as if Ms. Black already knows that by the time ‘Sunday’ roles [sic] around, she will no longer have any weekend left to which [sic] to live for.
"[5] Kevin Rutherford from Billboard also mentioned her maturity, saying she is "more sure of herself", and calling the song a "passable piece of Radio Disney-esque pop".
"[8] Despite jokes about a possible "Sunday" in the future, Black herself has said that she is "done with weekdays" and that "Saturday" is her last song named after a day of the week.
[9] "Saturday" debuted and peaked at number 55 on the US Billboard Hot 100, surpassing "Friday" as her highest charting single and selling 3,000 downloads in its first week of sales.
