-
"We all have a soundtrack to our lives, songs that as soon as we hear them we're transported to a moment in time. Myf Warhurst grew up with the music in her. Whether she was watching Daryl Braithwaite on TV on a Sunday night or listening to the crackle of the needle across vinyl as Agnetha and Anni-Frid took her from rural Victoria to Eurovision, music has always shaped Myf's life. But music isn't just about memories. It's a safe place for people who feel different. For Myf, songs and lyrics were a way to make sense of the world. It steered her hopes and fashion choices and helped cement friendships. In Time of My Life, Myf shares funny, fabulous and occasionally fraught tales about growing up in a small country town with an unhealthy obsession with Countdown, working in Australian television and radio, and what she's learnt along the way. Like a sommelier matches food with wine, Myf matches hits with memory, and in the process reminds us all that, as Louis Armstrong said, 'Music is life itself.'--Back cover.
