"Time and Time Again" is the second single from the rock band Papa Roach's third studio album, Lovehatetragedy.

Music video

The music video (directed by Samuel Bayer) shows the band driving black cars in a street race with the song playing on the car stereos. Sections of this video were used in the Papa Roach version of the Pepsi Blue television advertisements in 2002.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “single” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q569221. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2002.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
