Definite Times In Songs

I'm listening to Lady Antebellum's song "Need You Now." It has a definite time in it, "a quarter after 1," when he or she (or he and she) needs you now. So definite!

There's others. Like the old song by Spin Doctors ... what time is it? 4:30.

There's one, I think it's by The Fray, there's 8 seconds in overtime. So that's a moment (a second) frozen in amber.

How about going way back, 25 or 6 to 4. Chicago didn't have a digital clock.
