Fun Stuff > BAND

Favorite songs in 5/4.

<< < (3/8) > >>

Bastardous Bassist:
Huh.  That's one big freaking list.  Of course it's not going to be comprehensive at all (there are an unbelievable amount of pieces in odd times these days).  However, I do know that one bit of information on there is inaccurate, or at least not entirely accurate.  It lists "Take Five" as being by the Dave Brubeck Quartet, whereas other Brubeck tunes are listed as being by Brubeck himself.  The thing is, Paul Desmond was the writer of "Take Five."

est:
"March of the Pigs" by Nine Inch Nails - 7/8 + 7/8 + 7/8 + 4/4

this song is hells of fun to play.

Storm Rider:
YYZ, Veil of Maya, Erotomania, and Discipline.

Kid Modernist:

--- Quote from: the W'rkncacnter ---It's not 5/4, but the Stranglers have a song called "Golden Brown" that changes time signatures during every chorus.  It has 3 measures of 3/4 followed by one in 4/4.  It's a pretty neat effect.  I'll have to check out those Sufjan songs though, if anything just for the novelty of 5/4 time.  The only song I've ever head that I knew was in 5/4 was a jazz song and I thought it was really cool.
--- End quote ---


You can hear that song at http://www.hobomagazine.com

It reminds me of Donovan with a bit of The Doors. Too bad their other stuff is generic.

the W'rkncacnter:
I wouldn't really say they're generic.  I have a bunch of their stuff on vinyl, and a lot of it is really good.  The album that "Golden Brown" appears on, La Folie, is one of my favorites, as well as Live Xcert.
