A Sign of The Times

The talented English singer Petula Clark had a hit song in 1966 titled ‘A Sign of the Times.’ The song had absolutely nothing to do with the Biblical ‘signs of the end times’ we will focus on in this article, but there was just something about the song title that intrigued me even back then.

Every decade has its own signs of changing times. Back then, the Vietnam War was coming to a boiling point, with many protests in the United States. There were racial and civil rights issues. It was harder to borrow money or get mortgages because of higher interest rates and inflation. Even the U.S. government was feeling a financial squeeze because there just wasn’t enough money to finance both a war in Vietnam and a War on Poverty. The use of illegal drugs was beginning to increase, and even the popular music most teenagers listened to was changing fast.
