Favorite song about a time of day?







  • You can nominate TWO songs for today's theme
  • Tomorrow any with multiple nominations will go into the poll
  • Feel free to suggest future topics
  • A YouTube playlist with all the poll songs will be posted in the topic. I highly recommend listening to any songs in the poll you don't already know


Totally NOT inspired by Iron Maiden's 2 Minutes to Midnight

Examples of measurements of time:
-second
-minute
-hour
-day
-week
-month
-year
-decade

Listen, it's in the title, but the Doomsday Clock doesn't literally measure time. It's just a metaphor, and the units away from "midnight" are not even defined in measurement and are adjusted subjectively.

Nominate: Doomsday/End of the world

I can't edit my original post but the singer is Andy Williams, just checked on Spotify.

Second nomination (edit) forgot about this one: One moment in time by Whitney Houston (does a moment count as a measurement of time?)

I think even metaphorically it counts as a measurement of time, at least to me. It's like a time limit on the world.

Yes I get that but whether you take them as real minutes or metaphorical minutes they are still measuring time leading to the deadline

also I literally let a song about Reagan make it into the Satan poll so clearly anything and everything is up for interpretation

I would randomly talk about Tears for Fears in music topics back in the day, and I don't really remember anyone caring, so probably!
