Time Passes Quickly and Means So Much
Songs with time or times in the title

The songs can refer to time as in the hours of the day, they can refer to how many times something happens, or even a moment in time that has been special. I hope you enjoy these songs.
I want to start this off with a beautiful and heartwarming song "Time Flies" that was recorded by the American singer and actress Rosemary Clooney and the American singer Linda Ronstadt. The first version of the song was recorded by Rosemary Clooney in 1946.

You've got some great songs here. "Time in a Bottle" is really powerful, especially knowing it became a hit after Jim Croce's tragic death. And Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" is a classic. It makes me wonder which of these songs has the most personal meaning for you and why? Also, what other songs about time come to mind that aren't on this list? I remember when "Time After Time" came out. It was on the radio all the time. Such a catchy tune. And Billy Joel's "The Longest Time" is so upbeat. It's amazing how these songs capture different aspects of time. Do you think there's a song that best sums up the passage of time?
