I'm not forgetting anything, I was talking about my personal favourites, there are plenty more great songs in time signatures other than 4/4 and 3/4.


I'm not actually implying you were, I just needed a thread to attach my personal favorite odd time signature example to and you had a great list going. We could do one of those cheesy "Best Of ____" anthology CD box set commercials that come on TV after midnight. 'Irregular time signature hits of the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and today!' ;)


Oh okay then, my mistake. :-) Thanks for your box set suggestion. ;-)

I wonder if we'll allow some African cross-rhythms in this boxset. If we did I'd suggest Foolish Harp/Waerera by The Bhundu Boys:
