The Byrds – “Turn! Turn! Turn!

The Byrds – “Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season)”
Released in 1965, The Byrds’ “Turn! Turn! Turn!” became an anthem for a generation longing for peace and understanding. Adapted from a passage in the Book of Ecclesiastes and originally set to music by Pete Seeger,
the song took on new life through The Byrds’ signature blend of chiming 12-string guitars and rich vocal harmonies.

With its timeless message about the rhythms of life—war and peace, sorrow and joy, beginnings and endings—this folk-rock
classic struck a deep chord during a decade marked by social upheaval. It soared to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains one of the most enduring songs of the 1960s.


Gentle, profound, and endlessly relevant, “Turn! Turn! Turn!” reminds us that everything has its time—and that music can be a force for healing, reflection, and change.
