Show Notes
This isn’t just a phrase—it’s a philosophy. On this special edition of Good Vinyl Mornings, your host Prentiss “PL Sweets” Thompson, breaks it down with depth and soul, anchored by two timeless tracks: Michael McDonald’s “I Keep Forgettin’” and “Regulate” by Warren G & Nate Dogg.
Michael’s smooth delivery in “I Keep Forgettin’” taps into the ache of repetition—those moments where we keep giving energy, love, or time to something or someone that’s already moved on. It’s a reminder of how easily time slips away when we’re stuck in cycles. His voice, drenched in emotion, becomes a metaphor for how we forget to value the present while dwelling on the past.

Then enter “Regulate.” Warren G and Nate Dogg flip that same melody into a gritty West Coast anthem. But beyond the street narrative, the song is about urgency. Survival. Brotherhood. Protecting your space, your peace, your time. It’s a story about how one wrong decision can cost you dearly—and how knowing who you are and who’s got your back can keep your time from being wasted on the wrong battles.
Together, these songs tell one truth: Time is more valuable than money, more limited than opportunity, and more powerful than regret. You can earn money back. You can regain status. But once a moment’s gone—it’s gone.
So, ask yourself: Who or what are you spending your time on? Is the return worth the cost? Because just like a currency, if you don’t budget your time wisely, you’ll be bankrupt before you know it.
This one’s for the people learning to let go of what drains them and pour into what drives them. Time is your currency. Spend it on purpose.
