Clint from New Brunswick, NjTo avoid any confusion, Amnesiac's "Morning Bell" is not in 7|8.Morning Bell from Kid A is 54.Īnd 15 step is truly 54 And an excellent song from an awsome album Maor from Haifa, IsraelActually, Morning Bell from amnesiac is 44.Luke Taylor from Manchester, United KingdomNever mind what theyre in, they could be in 56/7 for all i care.Sorry for the boring lecture, but it does matter if you're trying to play these things yourself - and it's a bit worrying when a song you've always played as 7/8 gets called 5/4 because there's a big difference. So yeah, what you wrote (if we assume by the 7 you meant 8) was really 7/8. Oh and the 56 part would be very unusual too (but not impossible), since it can be broken down into 28, 14 or most likely 7. Bobby B from North West, United KingdomMaor and Clint got there first, but I was going to point out that Morning Bell is 5/4 on Kid A, and 4/4 on Amnesiac.Īlso, although the 15 beats in "15 Step" could be transcribed as a 5/4 signature, because of the complexity of the sampled drum parts, it would be much easier to transcribe/read if it was notated as 10/8.Īnd to Luke, I appreciate your point - what difference does it really make? - but just since we're being nit-picky here, they couldn't play in 56/7 since the second number in a time signature has to be an even number, since it denotes the note's duration (whereas the first number denotes how many of each you'll find in a bar), so you could have 56/1, 56/2, 56/4, 56/8, 56/16, and you could possibly use 56/3, 56/6, 56/12, 56/24 etc if notating a section that switched to a triplet-feel from a more ordinary pattern, but you'd usually avoid doing so because it can be a nightmare to read a signature like that.

I only knew that, because even though this song is not on the soundtrack, I had it on my iPod.

Hermione from Los Angeles, CaThis song was in the ending credits for Twilight.It's the best mash up I've heard yet!! Go on youtube, type "Five Step" or "Radiohead VS. Kristin from Atlanta, GaThere is a brilliant mash up song featuring 15 Step and Take Five by Dave Brubeck.
