"There's a time in life for Hoagy Carmichael. There's a time in life for Claude Debussy. There's a time in life for Jerry Lee Lewis. There's a time in life for Destiny's Child. All these things have their moment." ~Elvis Costello
Peter Wolf’s “There’s Still Time” is a grown up rock song about reflection and re-centering.
The man who presided over the sweaty house party that was the J. Geils Band sounds like a guy quite a few miles down the road on his 2010 offering, Midnight Souvenirs.
Some rockers don’t know how to settle down or get on with the next phase, and nothing’s sadder than seeing geriatric rockers trying to maintain an image, or songwriting POV, suited to a 25-year-old.
Brazilian singer-songwriter Maria do Céu Whitaker Poças’ 2021 release Um Gosto de Sol (A Taste of Sunshine) featured a tasty take on a song originally done in 2001 by Grupo Revelação.
The chorus translates from Portuguese as:
Let it happen naturally I don’t want to see you cry Let love find us Our story will last forever
