Moving a few decades forward this track by singer/songwriter Tori Amos hit the airwaves in 1992 as part of her extremely successful fourth album called ‘Little Earthquakes’. Other people in Lennon’s life such as his wife and aunt Mimi were also in his thoughts when writing the track. A close friend of Lennon, Stu Sutcliffe died in 1962.Īs an early member of the Beatles, Lennon felt understandably bereaved by his passing. Several important people appear to have been the inspiration behind this track that has a certain sad nostalgia to it. What Lennon and McCartney could agree on is that they both felt this was one of the finest songs they ever wrote. Lennon’s hand-written lyrics date from 1964 but the song was part of the album from 1965, ‘Rubber Soul’. The general consensus is that this song falls neatly into the John Lennon camp. Like many songs by the Beatles, the actual composer or composers can be tricky to pin down. It is a song about getting control of the moment and your life before time runs out. Lyrically, the song avoids the more obvious expressions of dismay or delight that can surround growing up, and instead focuses on the idea that life never really prepares you for what is around the corner. ‘Time’ is no exception and begins with the recorded sounds of ticking antique clocks that lead into a two-minute drum solo. In nearly all of their tracks, they take unexpected twists and turns, always experimenting with new creative concepts. If you are in any way familiar with the music of Pink Floyd, you will be aware that the band is a highly progressive outfit. The song appeared as the eighth track on Pink Floyd’s album ‘Dark Side of The Moon’ (1973). This track plunges us back into the heady days of the early 1970s.
