    I happened to hear this yesterday. The ‘unusual’ thing about it is sometimes the ‘tune’ would come to mind but I had ‘no idea’ what the song was. Now I know!
    While watching this version – old clip – I was looking at the singing and wondering if “it” were a guy or gal! So, even ‘back then’ we were being conditioned for this “globalism mind-set of supposed evolution” 👎
    And the title “Isn’t it Time” … why state it like that? Why not ‘It’s Time” “It Was Time”. Using a neg to introduce something positive ~ falling in Love. ‘questionings going thru his mind …’ I guess that bothered him, he couldn’t understand what he was feeling?
    Real Love is of God and Greater than we can understand! because it makes us “selfless” (we’re use to be selfish & ‘me oriented’) while thinking and working for the ‘best of the other’.
    Even the pianist clothing and actions are effeminate … ‘Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,’ 1 Cor 6:9
    Some would say, well ‘who can get into Heaven’ then!! since we all fall under some category of ungodliness … what’s your answer to them? hmmm 🤔 😊

      I have heard of John Waite but I had never heard what he sang or saw him before. Definitely had the blurring of the lines between male and female going on, he looked a little like Bowie did for awhile. Yep, this has been going on for awhile now and it is finally starting to become normalized.

        Yep, the ‘spirit’ of evil has a plan opposite from the LORD’s GOOD PLAN! which we all are a part of, some even into Eternity!

    This is a different ‘take’ on the song! kind-of upbeat and fun.

    His something to stoke the flames of hell!
    But, we got to figure ‘evil does whatever’ it’s allowed to do … May the LORD thwart them and help those fighting to ‘purge and flush’ the evil be successful! Prayers for deliverance from evil!

      Something more to go with this:

      Now why would ‘P’ be bringing all these family member along (on taxpayers $$$) and ‘select staff’ as though she needed to ‘get them out’ during this time?

      There is no doubt in my mind they would love to make this happen! Maybe they will finally get Trump but it is hard to imagine they could get Pence too, but you never know…

        Probably why so much has been spoken of recently regarding this same ‘mindset’ that murdered POTUS JFK. Imagine that … the ‘usurpers’ kill the American Pres., get away with it and continue to dismantle American – stealing away rights and freedom – while using the Mocking Bird MSM and entertainment to corrupt and strip away the moral values and qualities of the godly foundation and social fabric. These snakes need to be ‘cleared away’ … like David did to Goliath. May the LORD empower those doing ‘just that’ exceedingly!!
