He began the highly anticipated weekly video with: "Hey it's Kev. I'm back with another edition of the Monday Blues." 

It had been a month since he shared his classic Monday Blues, which he promises to do weekly. The actor then quickly interrupted himself to apologize, saying: "You know, somebody pointed out to me that I hadn't been doing any blues on my Monday Blues, so here goes."

He then explained: "I mean, tough to pick three great blue songs. There's so many of them." He went on to pick Evil by Howlin Wolf, Love In Vain by Robert Johnson and Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out by Bessie Smith.
