Redball:
Now that it's been brought up again, I'm curious to hear it, especially Hanners' prime-number progression against a straight 7/4. Anyone with, say, GarageBand able to create it? My choir last December performed a short piece alternating 4/4 and 5/4, short enough that it was easier for most of us amateurs to memorize than to count.

cesium133:
When I was in high school marching band, we once had to perform a piece that was alternating 4/4 and 5/4. I ended up counting it as 18/4 so that I wouldn't fall flat on my face due to being confused what foot I was supposed to be on.

KOK:
I never understood this counting stuff. If asked in music class, while some music was playing, "can you count to three or to four?", I always could count to three or four or any other number no problem.

ankhtahr:
It's mainly the rhythm, which tone is stressed. With 4/4 every first tone is stressed, every third tone is slightly stressed. It's like "DUM dum Dum dum". A 3/4 rhythm is "DUM dum dum".

KOK:
There are of course a few that does this, but mostly it is just dum dum dum dum dum dum dum dum ... . Or so it sounds to me.
