What makes a great love song? Time After Time has been covered so many times that it's easy to forget there was an original, but before it became a cultural standard, it was a simple last-minute addition to Cyndi Lauper's debut album, She's So Unusual. Even at the time, she and her cowriter Rob Hyman knew they had something special, and they treated the process of writing this song with a level of reverence and care that comes through in every aspect of the final production, from its hauntingly simple melody to its hollow, ticking groove. It's a timeless classic that transcends its origins while remaining intrinsically tied to them. So let's talk about it!

Watch this video on Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/12tone-understanding-time-after-time Some additional thoughts/corrections: 1) You may have noticed the staff paper is different in this video! That's because I'm testing out a new merch item. It should be available soon, and I'll have a full announcement then, but figured I'd at least mention it here. 2) Honestly there's a lot to say about Bazilian's part specifically that wound up getting cut from this video because it didn't really serve the broader structure of the story I was telling, but I did want to give credit where it's due. He's doing a lot of subtle things throughout to the song to fill just enough space that the track never gets boring. 3) I said the bass was played on a Prophet-V, but to be a little more precise, Wittman says he wasn't exactly sure if it was a Prophet-V or another patch on the Memory Moog. He thinks it was a Prophet, though, so I went with that 'cause it was the most definitive source I could find. 4) Another interesting thing about the chorus vocals is that Lauper and Hyman start each line harmonizing in perfect 4ths and 5ths, but then near the end, that slips into 3rds, giving the final words a more colorful tone. The effect isn't huge, partly due to the blending thing I talked about, but it's there and I think it's cool.

@@bj.bruner Yeah, at the time in 1985 I was at university and lived in a shared flat with a 'Jazz is the only real music' jazz elitist guy, who never listened to pop/rock music. I was bassplayer in a rock band with a great female singer and we decided to play this song. One day the singer, guitarplayer and me rehearsing it in my room and he later came in saying 'oh this crappy pop singer Cindy Lauper shamelessly copied the song from Miles Davis'. When I showed him the credits on 'You're Under Arrest' he still was 'that can't be, impossible, impossible ...'. He was totally destroyed when he learned that 'Human Nature' is a Michael Jackson song, written by Steve Porcaro. You can imagine, we made a lot of fun of him for months.

The kick drum is also the linn drum machine. afaik the whole track is purely just the linn. My personal favorite detail of this song is the very end when she hesitates finishing “time after-“ for the last repeat, with one ever so soft “time” just as the song fades to silence. Gives me chills every time, as does her theramin-like vocal outro on All Through The Night.

"The bass is the star" That's probably because originally the bass was all there was. The story goes that Cyndi Lauper's bass player was jamming by himself, and Cyndi overheard him and joined in, and that's how the song originated. I assume it's the same bass player you mentioned; my source just says "her bass player" and not his name.

when a song is in a major key and it avoids playing the tonic chord, it can often feel (to me) more like it's in the relative minor key, especially if it has that IV V motion and at least one minor chord.
@EAS76 Ай бұрын
To me, this song is about thinking of that relationship that never quite works but you just are drawn to each other several times over the years. The fact that it goes IV-V-iii-IV I think is intentional cause you’re wanting it to resolve, but it just loops back to the IV, with no clear resolution but to repeat the loop again, all this is with the main voice doing the tonic at the end also wanting it to resolve but it goes back to the IV. This is Cyndi reliving those memories of that relationship that never ends fully. They keep playing in a loop. When it resolves to the I for the verses, it’s Cyndi popping into a particular memory to show how it starts out well. The phrases here are happy ones that go from the 1 to the 3 note in an uplifting phrase, like a new relationship. Then, things start to get out of sync relationship-wise. When he says, “go slow,” as an example, it changes back to that same IV-V-iii-IV phrase and the cracks show in the relationship. It gets stuck back in that loop while they go back to the tonic for the chorus to proclaim to each other they will always have a happy space (the tonic, when singing “time after time”) for each other in their hearts even though things always seem to go bad in reality. It’s what keeps the song timeless and able to be replayed, because it’s got that loop of wistful nostalgia of something you like that never resolves quite right baked into it at the beginning.

"There's not much voice leading and the chord functions don't make a lot of sense." Yes, there's not much voice leading, but the chord functions are COMPLETELY standard. This is the back half of a circle of fifths progression, IV - viio - iii - vi - ii - V - I, except the viio has been turned into a V, which is basically the same chord, just with a different sound, and the vi has been turned into a IV, which is extremely common as well. IV - V - iii - vi is also the Traditional 80's Intro -- see Never Gonna Give You Up for the most obvious example. Changing the vi into a IV doesn't change this very much. It's also not hiding the key. The F, G, and Em triads together make up the entire C major scale and, in that order, are very characteristic of major-mode music, and that particular combination of functions doesn't make sense in A minor (the Em would have been an E7 in this progression, but even then I think it would sound like a V7/vi in C more than a V7 in Am). This is standard run-of-the-mill C major with no tricks.

It is a great guitar tone, sounds like a single-coil guitar (strat) into a not-very-subtle stereo chorus/flange with a high depth and a slow rate. Apparently the original unit used on the recording is rack mounted and rare (Publison DHM B2), but that kind of guitar sound was ubiquitous the 80s, largely due to the Roland JC-120 amp and CE-1 chorus pedal being extremely popular at the time and using the same circuit for the chorus effect.
