Once in a while for no particularly good reason I will call out “Time!” as though I were doing my own version of the Chambers Brothers’ “Time Has Come Today,” in which you hear this word shouted at regular intervals. (This particular lyric technique has largely fallen into desuetude: the most recent variation I can recall is the periodic call of “Science!” in Thomas Dolby’s “She Blinded Me With Science,” more than two decades ago. Updates will be welcomed.)

Time is also a good subject for a mix, and Monty has a two-disc mix of time-related songs, including most of the obvious ones (the Chambers Brothers were left on the shelf) and, in a stroke of genius, the Guess Who’s “No Time.” I will have to plunder this for a Time cycle of my own.
