As I saw somewhere on the internet today, The Monday after we change the clocks by an hour ought to be a national holiday. I cannot say any better than I did four months ago when we last did this:
Twice a year people ask “which would you rather have, Standard or Daylight Savings time?” While I have a slight preference for whichever gives me later daylight in summer, I truly do not care as long as we PICK ONE AND STOP CHANGING IT.
While I managed to solve Wordle and Quordle today, my brain is too confused by the time change (and the fact we now have TWO dogs who don’t know what time it is instead of one) to write eloquently. Or even passably, to be honest. [To wit: I forgot it was Pi Day until after I had this mostly written, and just managed to slip in a pie pic!] But it is serving me up a constant selection of songs related to Time, and if I have to have them rattling in my head, now so do you!
First up, the theme song for everyone who has old-school clocks that don’t update, or who is chronologically confused for days twice a year…
Next, if only a jump, step and a pelvic thrust would make it all clearer…
Apropos in more ways than one… The battle outside ragin’ will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls for the times they are a-changin'
After hearing his recent performance of “Russians”, it’s no wonder this song was on my mind…
Only twice a year, but I can listen to Miss Aretha anyday…
I almost shared the Sam Smith cover but really, nothing beats the original…
What timely songs are running through your head tonight! Please share them in the comments, after perusing the Tops for yesterday and today over the fold!

TOP COMMENTS
Brillig's ObDisclaimer: The decision to publish each nomination lies with the evening's Diarist and/or Comment Formatter. My evenings at the helm, I try reeeeallllyy hard to publish everything without regard to content. I really do, even when I disagree personally with any given nomination. "TopCommentness" lies in the eyes of the nominator and of you, the reader - I leave the decision to you. I do not publish self-nominations (ie your own comments) and if I ruled the world, we'd all build community, supporting and uplifting instead of tearing our fellow Kossacks down. Please remember that comment inclusion in Top Comments does not constitute support or endorsement by diarist, formatter, Top Comments writers or DailyKos. Questions, complaints or comments? Contact brillig.
We did not have any nominations for either yesterday or today. Please, we really DO need you to send in the great comments you read.
