We hate to change our clocks, but we love that extra time we get when we fall back one hour. Songs about TIME to celebrate!

Time by The Chambers Brothers……..blast from the past!
Time Slips Away by Willie Nelson
probably too late but here’s one . . .
i’ve got all the time in the world — subdudes
Time of the season by the zombies.
I listen to your show every morning and thoroughly enjoy it. There is a Boston based artist named Tim Blane who fits perfectly into your style of music but I never hear him on the radio. He has 2 time-themed albums, In the Meantime and Clockwork. Either title song would be great for your question of the day.
I realize it’s highly “mainstream” but I believe Pink Floyd’s, Roger Waters says it best when it comes to “Time”.
Dark Side of the Moon – Side A – Track 4 – Time
I may be too late, but Chicago’s “Does anyone really know what time it is” is always a song that pops into my head when Time is mentioned.

wow! you guys couldn’t have picked a more covered topic unless you asked for songs about love! well, being that i’m almost out of it, here are some of my favorite time songs:
what time is it…marshall crenshaw
time has come today…the chambers brothers
time is on my side…the rolling stones
hazy shade of winter…simon & garfunkel (hello….opening lyrics??)
i could probably keep picking songs until the end of time…..hey! that’s where we are now!
Here’s a song about clocks – certainly appropriate for the time change!
Belle & Sebastian: Sleep the Clock Around
Car on the Hill by Joni Mitchell. All about waiting…waiting…waiting for her “sugar to show.”
Gosh, so many to choose from! Here’ a set:
Hazy Shade of Winter – Bangles (or S&G if you prefer)
Time Is On My Side – Stones
Clocks – Coldplay
Have a great day!
Simon and Garfunkel – can’t remember the title – very soft song, “time it was and what a time it was, a time of innocence, a time of confidences.
Long ago it must be, I have a photograph..” It might be called Photograph. I think from the album Bookends.
Time Won’t Let Me – The Outsiders (from the 1960’s ?)
fun question!
Time after time – Eva Cassisy
Time – Pink Floyd
All this time – Sting
Turn! Turn! Turn! – Byrds
Bye Bye Baby – The Monkees
She’s Leaving Home – The Beatles
I was close. The title is just Four of Two.
I know (and relish) that you just played George Harrison, but as it relates to today’s question, how about “Bluejay Way”. Other folks were also disappointed this weekend waiting for Eric Clapton to show.
I think Nick Drake’s “Time of No Reply” is an appropriate end of day light savings song. It captures the silent feeling of the sun disappearing so soon in the afternoon and those crisp fall mornings.
Thanks!
I think Styx has a song – too much time on my hands -
Morning!
here’s a couple oldies!
Time is on my side – Rolling Stones
This should make us all giggle – “I’m Late, I’m Late” (from Alice in Wonderland) from the animated Disney version (Barbra Streisand did this way back when on one of her early TV specials I think – either Color Me Barbra or My Name is Barbra) Would be fabulous if you can put hour hands on that!
If I’m on the Late Side – Rod Stewart (and the Faces?)
Gotta get back to work – Will be great to hear today’s selections, Claudia!
Have a good one!
“SOME OTHER TIME” -
Leonard Bernstein, Betty Cohn and Adoph Green
from On the Town,
I thought someone like Jill Sobule had covered this, but I can’t come up with it, maybe Blossom Dearie version…
if i could turn back the hands of time
oliver darley or delbert!
Joan Osborne’s Divided
Matthew Sweet’s Time Capsule
and don’t let the title fool you, Hazy Shade of Winter
is a wistful look at time passing. Dig The Bangles version.
Have a good time today :)
Besides some obvious ones:
“Clocks” – Coldplay
“Time Is On My Side” – Rolling Stones
“Time in a Bottle” – Jim Croce
“25 or 6 to 4″ – Chicago
Here one maybe less thought of one to consider:
“Time Has Come Today” – Chambers Brothers
Have a great day, folks.
“What Time Is It?” Spin Doctors
“Have the Time” Slackers
I am tired from the change of hours and the yankees….if i could hold back the times of time…tyronne davis,,,,Go Yankess…..
Got the Time, Joe Jackson
A Good Time by John Prine for the opening line if nothing else
What a pleasure it was to wake up to some light this morning. I suggest Turn, Turn Turn by The Byrds (“a time for every purpose under heaven”) and Time Of The Season by The Zombies.
Only one question, so many answers…The Chamber Brothers, Chicago etc.
A couple contenders:
“The Times They Are a Changin” Bryan Ferry’s cover of the Dylan classic.
“As Time Goes By” The Dooley Smith original from Casablanca.
“Time Of the Season” Zombies.
“Time Is On My Side” Irma Thomas version.
“Time Has Told Me” Nick Drake.
And the song that started it all…”Rock Around The Clock” Bill Haley & the Comets.
Have a great week.
Time the Avenger – The Pretenders
I’ve Got All the Time in the World – The Subdudes
Plus, I can’t remember the artist, but there’s a late 60’s song that I
believ is titled “Time” featuring the band shouting “Time” and percussion
imitating the sound of a ticking clock winding down.
Songs with ‘TIME’ (Or, TIME related) –
‘Time (Is On My Side)’ – (The Rolling Stones)
‘She Don’t Care About Time’ – (The Byrds)
‘Time Won’t Let Me’ – (The Outsiders)
‘Time Of The Season’ – (The Zombies)
‘No Time’ – (The Guess Who)
‘Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?’ – Chicago (Transit Authority)
‘Time’ – (Alan Parsons Project)
‘Time’ – (Pink Floyd)
‘It’s Too Late’ – (Carole King)
‘What Time Is It?’ – (Marshall Crenshaw)
” Time Passes Slowly ” – Bob Dylan
So many, many I just don’t have time to send out more than a few.
“Time is on my side”, Rolling Stones
“Time after Time:, Cyndi Lauper
“Good Timing”, Jimmy Jones
“Time in a Bottle”, Jim Croce
and here is a little unusual one: “The Syncopated Clock”, the theme song of WCBS’s “Late Show” introduced in the early 50’s and continued for 25 years or so and later became the theme for the “The Early Show” as well.
Have a good week.
