Regina Spektor wrote and recorded “You’ve Got Time” specifically for Orange Is The New Black, a Netflix Original Series based on the book Orange Is The New Black: My Year In a Women’s Prison by Piper Kerman. Spektor had been asked by the show’s creator, Jenji Kohan, to write the theme, and she jumped at the chance. As Spektor told Rolling Stone:

She sort of gave me an attitude like, ‘If it works, it works, and if it doesn’t, don’t worry, because I know you write songs when you write songs and you’re not a machine. So just do it if you can.’

It did work—thanks to a process that involved Spektor getting a sneak peek at the series.

I started to get some ideas and then as they were shooting, she would send me some rough, unfinished episodes, and so I got to really experience the world of the show and got to see what the characters were really like and it kind of helped me finish the song.

The song earned Spektor her first Grammy nomination in 2014, for Best Song Written for Visual Media.
