According to this site this song was released by Sinatra on 24 October 1946, so the date 1947 must be wrong. Wocky 16:00, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was listening to Stephane Grappelli perform this and thought it was good, so I wiki'd it to see if it was a standard. Didn't see Grappelli on this list, so figured it was worth adding.

The list seems incomplete. There are several musicians with last names beginning with A-D and then it skips to later letters and the list seems to end abruptly? --Eleo 06:14, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Frank Sinatra song doesn't seem to be the song by Cahn / Styne. At least, not as much as the Cyndi Lauper/Quietdrive songs do :) 223ankher 21:44, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. If anyone who see the movie "Evening" will know this classic jazz song sung by Frank Sinatra is not the same with another very famous song of the same title, sung by Cyndi Lauper. I'm interested in this lovely song and tried to find those versions of different performers in the list. There are several names here are NOT correct. At least Cassandra Wilson, Eva Cassidy and Quietdrive were singing the Time After Time (Cyndi Lauper song). Maybe there should be a note in the beginning of the article to prevent people from adding wrong performer to this list. --PigTail 14:23, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The song has also been recorded by "The Hooters". It can be found on the best of album "Hooterization: A retrospective" for example. Greetings! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.231.187.27 (talk) 23:26, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there are clearly many of these that recorded the Cyndi Lauper "Time After Time", not the old jazz tune. The Cyndi Lauper tune was written by Cyndi Lauper and Robert Hyman from The Hooters. The list needs to be vetted out to determine which of these artists recorded which song. There should be a note that this isn't the same song and maybe links between the two song's pages as there is a page already for the Lauper/Hyman song.

The Miles Davis album You're Under Arrest certainly includes the Cyndi Lauper version of the tune.86.16.159.144 (talk) 17:08, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"About Nostalgia"

Despite what a couple of academics may have written, "Time After Time" is not a song "about nostalgia." It is a song about love and appreciation, as any examination of the actual lyric will reveal.

I note that the Wikipedia entry for the Jule Styne song "I've Heard That Song Before" is also described thusly:

"I've Heard That Song Before" is a 1942 American popular song about nostalgia [1] with music by Jule Styne and lyrics by Sammy Cahn.

The "nostalgia" tag is appropriate in describing "I've Heard That Song Before." It's not accurate, however, in describing the same songwriter's "Time After Time." Accordingly, I'm deleting the apparently picked-up "nostalgia" reference.
