4 in the morning...
Poet and storyteller Rives cleverly attempts to solve the mystery of the "repeated artistic depiction" of 4 in the morning that pops up in movies, poetry, literature, and music.
Before I ever saw this talk, I had noticed the same thing; I rarely hear a reference to 2:00, 3:00 or 5:00 in the morning as the most remote, worst possible time of day, the time of day when desperate people lie awake thinking of fried pork chops or stay up to work on inaugural speeches. So when I came across the presentation, I was elated! I'm not the only one who thinks there's a conspiracy or mysterious code behind 4 in the morning!
Or maybe I just need to get more sleep.

The very first Simon and Garfunkel album was titled Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M.
That's funny, because Paul Simon also sings "4 in the morning, crapped out, yawning..." in Still Crazy After All These Years. I guess they don't discriminate.
Eminem also has a recent song titled 3 A.M., in which the lyrics talk about how it's almost four in the morning.
Yep, it's conspiracy!
It's 4 O'clock in the morning, dammit listen to me good. --E John.
One of my favorites!
