Yes, it’s that time of year again, time for Americans and Canadians to put all timepieces forward an hour. Europeans will follow on March 30 while most of Australia and all of New Zealand put their clocks back an hour on April 6.
The Furkids decided to reprise the classic song by Peter, Paul and Mary as your 2025 reminder. They felt that this song was even more appropriate this year because, 61 years after its release, its lyrics evoke the times we’re living through under the ravages of the Trumplestilskin and Lone Husk regime. Yet it is a song of foretelling, not of foreboding. it tells us to be strong as we navigate the overthrow of a dark regime to emerge into the light.
It is apposite, the Furkids tell me, because they too foretell a future, a near future in which good people come together to build a stronger, more progressive and resilient United States that works for the betterment of all its people and embraces its allies in genuine fellowship and mindfulness that supports the planet.
It’s a lot to ask of lyrical illustrations but the Furkids came up with their own idiosyncratic solutions for illustrating time, sometimes novel (eg present = gift) and always literal (eg present = gift).
The jukebox has been turned back to 1964 and loaded with old nickels so just press play, scroll down to the lyrics and sing along!
