For my theory class we're having a little contest to see who could find really sweet/weird time signatures. So far Pink Floyd's "Money" is winning. I used some Blind Guardian songs that change time sigs, but it's a no-go. Anybody know really sweet songs with time signatures other than 4/4 or 2/4?

And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.

I actually had found a few from Rick Wakeman solo that I was going to present when I get back from spring break.

Money? 7/4 is winning? Wow.

Slint - Washer
Tool - Flood
Liquid Tension Experiment - When The Water Breaks
King Crimson - Cat Food
Dream Theater - Home

Actually money is in 7/8 as I recall, but im not PF fan o I could be wrong. "Times like these" by the foo fighters is in something ****ed like 5/8 I think and I know Megadeath's "Wake up Dead" is in 15/8. Lets see that ****ty jazz time sig compete with 15/8, take double-digits you jazz loving bitch.

I don't know who the fuck or what the fuck you're talking to/about, but Cat Food is in 19/8.

TheBig3

What do you mean you don't know who im talking to? If you mean the bitch comment, well then I suppose thats my fault for assuming MB had a sense of humor. It was directed toward the person who submitted Money, other than that we should be on the same page mr. sensitive (yes I know he's not actually Mr.Sensitive)

In any case, Tool are still the best, because they manage to be incredibly complex and make it sound simple as well as incredibly powerful and moving, and not just like technical wankery. Schism, a relatively catchy and effective song, for instance, goes from 5/4 to 6/4 to 3/8 to 13/8 to 10/8, back to 6/4, then to 11/8... keeps on switching, throwing in some 12/8, 15/8, 9/8, 5/8, 2/4, and finally ends in 4/4.

And sorry if I came off as defensive or whatever, I just thought you were responding to my post and I was confused as to which song you thought was a "jazz song." I wasn't really thinking of "Money" as a jazz song.
