However, there was enough there for me to use it as my interpretive song for a drama class in high school. I looked at the lyrics, and saw there wasn’t a whole bunch there. As with most things from your youth, it is probably more fondly remembered than it is. I think I first was exposed to the song on a collection of hits called “Dimensions” from that great compiler of hits, K-Tel Records. So, immediately I went to my own history and started to think of my first favorite band, The Alan Parsons Project, since “Time” was one of their biggest hits.
Looking over the Big News board, I realize that I’ll have a lot of time for my own writing in the next couple of weeks as the ioWest is repaired (as will a lot of folks.) I must have been in a reflective mood anyway as I had just viewed an interview of George Carlin by Ralph Kiner on the youtube and started to read an account of how the poet Billy Collins was inspired by one of my all-time favorites, Looney Tunes.
So, then I head over to the ol’ internet just to see what is happening. Then cool, calm rationality takes over, or as I call it, sleep. Every once in a while, like tonight, I’ll try to fight it, thinking, I must stay awake, it’s a Friday night. I just woke up from a Friday evening nap, one of life’s little pleasures.
How did I start thinking about The Alan Parsons Project tonight? Well, it was because the ioWest was hit with an SUV on Thursday.
