>>>Words below are from this Wiki link: Ides Of March
The Ides of March is the day on the Roman calendar, corresponding to 15 March on the Gregorian calendar. In 44 BC, it became notorious as the date of the assassination of Julius Caesar, which made the Ides of March a turning point in Roman history.
The Romans did not number each day of a month from the first to the last day. Instead, they counted back from three fixed points of the month: the Nones (the 5th or 7th, eight days before the Ides), the Ides (the 13th for most months, but the 15th in March, May, July, and October), and the Kalends (1st of the following month).
>>>Here’s some songs, one by the band Ides Of March, and others with I’d’ in the titles (yah, a questionable stretch to fit the topic, earns several demerits)
