But it features tracks that Davis would play live for the rest of his career, including a take on Cyndi Lauper’s hit song, “Time After Time\" (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sZraztL63tg). With its contemplative tone, this song fits in powerfully within \u003cem\u003eYou’re Under Arrest'\u003c\/em\u003es socio-political observations and statements on racism, pollution, war and human nature. As for Lauper herself, who had written the song in 1983 with Rob Hyman, she was delighted with Davis’ version of “Time After Time.” In her memoir, she wrote that “the most honored I ever felt was when Miles Davis covered it. I never wanted him to meet me either because I thought, if he didn’t like me (like most of the old-timers), he wouldn’t play my song anymore, and the way he played it was pure magic.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093844938911,"sku":"23404","price":6500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Davis_2C_Miles_Time_after_Time_-_Original_Drawing_23404b.jpg?v=1722190766","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/23404-davis-miles-time-after-time-original-drawing-1984","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
