Time - Antennae Heart

He threw his notebook in the trash and said I'll never dream again
He sacrificed it all, he lost family and friends
He flipped off his boss and he walked out the job
He walked to the lake and slumped on a log
He thought about circles, was the earth a clock?
And how he spent all his time on the surface of a rock
He thought about how dreams are a pretty lonely business
And how society grinds itself into sickness
Skyscrapers full of dead beats and еxcel spreadsheets
He said lifе is short any moment I could be dead meat
His heart was a drum, his mind was like clay
Vagus nerve like a guitar that he strum and played
He started writing on a rock, the trees cheered em on
He was never by himself when he was writing songs
The biggest lie ever told is Sisyphus was alone
There was other people to help push the boulder home

Remember creation is always a collab
Feel the spirits enter and the ether in the lab
Listen to the trees hear hi hats in leaves
Antennae heart, message received
Remember creation is always a collab
Feel the spirits enter and the ether in the lab
Listen to the trees hear hi hats in leaves
Antennae heart, message received
He used to feel abandoned rejected and damaged
Until he took his doubt and he smashed it with hammers
Expectations reexamined his ego reimagined
Discipline established, he even started fasting
He went back to the park the tree was his trainer
The tree said why do you mistrust the stranger?
He thought about the question and the trees angle
The tree said behind the scenes our roots are tangled
He thought about it for a minute the sickness of capitalism
How he was caught in it seeing others as competition
He thanked the tree for the wisdom and went on his way
He went to an open mic and cheered them as they played
He met other artists and friends who shared skills
Cathedral consciousness, this is how you build
The biggest lie ever told is that Sisyphus was alone
There was other people to help push the boulder home

Remember creation is always a collab
Feel the spirits enter and the ether in the lab
Listen to the trees hear hi hats in leaves
Antennae heart, message received
Remember creation is always a collab
Feel the spirits enter and the ether in the lab
Listen to the trees hear hi hats in leaves
Antennae heart, message received

Time was a rock band from Yugoslavia that made a significant impact on the music scene in the 1970s. Formed in 1971 by Dado Topić, who had previously been a member of Korni Grupa, the band quickly gained a following with their unique blend of progressive rock and jazz influences.

The original lineup of Time included Dado Topić on vocals, Tihomir “Pop” Asanović on organ, Vedran Božić on guitar, Mario Mavrin on bass, Ratko Divjak on drums, and Brane Lambert Živković on piano and flute. Over the years, the lineup changed frequently, but the core members remained dedicated to creating innovative and captivating music.

Time released three albums during their time together, each showcasing their musical versatility and talent. Their first album featured a prominent Hammond organ, piano, and flute, while their second album had a harder sound with several ballads. The third album introduced a jazz-funk production style, further expanding their musical repertoire.

Some of Time's most popular songs include “Da li znaš da te volim”, “Rock ‘n’ roll u Beogradu”, and “Istina mašina”, which showcased their ability to create memorable and engaging music that resonated with audiences.

After disbanding in late 1977, Dado Topić embarked on a successful solo career, but the legacy of Time continued to live on. In 1998 and 2001, the band reunited for a limited number of live concerts, delighting fans with their timeless music and energetic performances.

Today, Time still plays together as a rock trio, continuing to captivate audiences with their unique sound and enduring musical legacy. Their influence can be heard in the work of many contemporary artists, solidifying their place in the history of Yugoslavian rock music.
