View Full Version : Time and a Word in advertising or covers

Back in the days of vinyl, I had numerous Yes albums. Time and a Word escaped me. I was introduced to the song via The Ultimate Yes.

It occurred that I had heard the song/melody covered by some other band, in a movie or in advertising somewhere. My worst fear is that this song was used in advertising for an erectile dysfunction product like Cialis, but I seem to remember seeing a movie somewhere recently that featured the melody. Any ideas? Or is this just too frivilous a topic?

Man, somehow I don't see TAAW the song as an ad for erectile dysfunction product. How do you fit the song in there?

Song: "In the morning when you rise,
Do you open up your eyes, see what I see?
Do you see the same things ev'ry day?"
Voice of James Earl Jones: "No morning wood? Don't worry, Cialis can help you!!!"

That sounds cheesy.

I think they may be playing off be the theme of ready when the time is right.

My memory is that it was just the melody and that it had been reworked with other instrumentation.

BTW, I chuckled at your script.

Dang, now I gotta pay James Earl Jones some royalty.
