Songfacts®:

  • "How Many Times" was written by Dan McCafferty of Wild August - who is not to be confused with Dan McCafferty of Nazareth. Neither is this uptempo melodic rock number to be confused with the 2014 Tinashe track of the same name.

    It appears on the soundtrack of the 1987 film Firehouse on which McCafferty's band is credited as August. "How Many Times" is also the first track on the band's 1989 debut album. >>>
