2811 Petula Clark - A Sign of the Times

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d3/My_love_warner_bros.jpg
From: My Love; Year: 1966; Genre: Pop/Rock
I had one of Petula Clark's songs come on my iPhone whilst on the way home; it earwormed me and since I've always loved her singing and music I thought I would pick one of her songs today. I literally grew up hearing her music a lot from my mom, who adores her work; I guess I came to like her material too by proxy.
Anyway, this is one of her main hits from the mid 1960s and has a definite Motown/R&B feel in the rhythm section, which only adds to the quality of the song. From what I understand this song was banned by the radio station owner Clear Channel because of some "end of the world" undertones, wot ever that means.
