Behind the Songs: My Time

A couple quotes from Richard Butler on the song "My Time."


Richard Butler: "Some songs are written specifically for women, like 'My Time' was written from trying to see things from a feminist point of view." (La Edad de Oro (Spanish TV) 1984)


Richard Butler: "My father had [Charles Aznavour's] records, and he's somebody I did quite like. He wrote some fantastic songs. Some for Edith Piaf, another of dad's favorites. There's a melancholy to that whole French thing, and we've had a couple of songs that dabbled in that feel. I think 'My Time' from Mirror Moves has an element of that." (Record Collector 2020)
