Subject: RE: Odd meters, 7/8 anyone?
songs in 12/8? Off the top of my head:

Make a Move on Me------Olivia Newfundland John (sorry, I just had to!)

Little Rock
Have I got A Deal For You--------Reba

All Night Long--------Charlie Daniels & Montgomery Gentry

Pain Is So Close To Pleasure
Don't Try Suicide
Sleeping On The Sidewalk-----------Queen

One of the 2 most well known (in America, anyhoo) Ave Maria's is in 12/8 (the one by Schubert) & recorded on most of the Christmas album since the beginning of records. It is also heard on the the Disney Movie, Fantasia.


in 7/8:

I Was Brought To My Senses----------Sting

Solsbury Hill-------------Peter Gabriel

Dreaming in Metaphors--------Seal




in 5/4, also Unsquare Dance, which I mentioned in my above first posting.


       I could go on . . . . .
