OT: Any Muscians on the Panel?
Something doesn't sound right about this song at approx. 1m29s there appears to be some sort of issue with the time signature. It's like it goes from 4/4 to 3/4 or something of that sort then back again, but I'm no musician so can't say for sure. Opinions sought from those with a better ear than I! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_H_LRcyXFY You may have to listen to the whole 2.5 minutes of the song to be certain. -- "Andrey Semyonovitch really was rather stupid; he attached himself to the progressive cause and 'our younger generation' from enthusiasm. He was one of the numerous and varied legion of dullards, of half-animate abortions, conceited, half-educated coxcombs who attach themselves to the idea most in fashion, only to vulgarise it and who caricature every cause they serve, however sincerely." - Fyodor Dostoevsky |

Having said that, lots of pieces of music change time (and key) signatures and that doesn't make them "wrong". |

I can't find anything wrong with it. Maybe your communication channel is slow and at the place you say, it decided to drop the delayed feed and miss a bit out to catch up again. -- Dave W |

The rhythm of the song flows at a constant underlying 4/4, but the lead guitarist finishes a phrase on a totally-unexpected beat. As someone else has said, there are lots of songs with odd bars of time signature other than the main one for the song. A good example was the Bobbie Gentry version of "I'll Never Fall In Love Again", which was in 4/4 but had one bar of 5/4 under the last line of the chorus (as per the title). |

"Three To Get Ready" (same album) has an intro in 3/4 but the main theme alternates two bars of 3/4 and two of 4/4. Perhaps we'd better not get into "Blue Rondo á la Turk"! |

Or the "Mission Implausible" theme. That's another in 5/4, ISTR (or at least, the original version by Lalo Schifrin is). "Living In The past" by Jethro Tull was also a 5/4 piece. You never heard local rock bands play it, and not only because they didn't usually have a flute in the line-up. |

Thanks for the link - an interesting read. Now listening to Time Out on Spotify. There's another on the same theme: "Time Further Out". Try "Unsquare Dance" from that one. It's in 7/4 and you will probably find it familiar. It's frequently used as background music in TV documentaries (and a few times on adverts, if I recall correctly). |
