[@comicalbanana]

@@Sawdust_Soup time signatures in music tell the performer how much time to give each beat and measure, and look like a fraction. For example, the most common time signature is 4/4, meaning there will be 4 beats in each measure, and what is considered a single beat is a quarter note. 3/4 means there are 3 beats in each measure, and what is considered a single beat is a quarter note. Although I've never encountered something like a 3/7/4 time signature before, so I couldn't tell you about that.

[@rarebeeph1783]

@@icantthinkofagoodusername4464 He's counting in 3/4, but the song is more precisely in 6/4 (not 6/8). Given the measures start and end at the same [points in the melody as the original], there would be 6 quarter notes per measure. It definitely does fall into a waltz feel, though, which brings some ambiguity as to whether it's 3/4 or 6/4, but the manner of construction implies 6/4.

[@icantthinkofagoodusername4464]

Project Overturn aka RareBeeph The way I’ve been taught says that compound time signatures like 6/8 or 3/4 are dictated by the feel of the song. While yes, the original song’s measures of 4/4 would indicate that it’s stretched to 6/4, this isn’t the same song anymore. It instead now implies a 3/4 time signature through its feel. If I’m not counting it in sixes, why should I count it as 6/4?

"8bit's never been one to drum with his head... and when he senses a difference in the song... his innate percussion sense will take over and he will adapt." -8bit's Bunta

[@timothymclean]

Drumming with your head might sound like a good idea, but your hair muffles the percussion.

[@danielmoran1891]

To explain how he figures this out: As every "other" beat refers to each 2nd run, and the song has a 4/4 time signature (4 beats per bar so standard stuff), that means beats 2 and 4 are played twice which adds another 2 beats to the bar. That takes it from 4/4 to 6/4 (6 beats in a bar). If you separate that into two runs of 3, then you can apply a standard waltz beat over it. The song typically combines either 2 or 4 bars together so you would want to run 4 bars of 3/4 together to make a measure. With vocals, that'd be the only real way you could do it without making it sound like a total mess. HOWEVER. IF this was instrumental, it'd be so cool to group the first section as 3, the middle as 6, and the end as 3. The melody of the keys and the guits make it sound mega proggy. Loads of potential man, maybe you should consider doing an arrangement of it?
