| You're totally right, Delvino. To make Elsa temporarily what, suicidal? -- it defies all reason. Hooray for anyone who decides to write a song in seven, but it feels gimmicky here. - GMB |

| I don't know what it means "to write a song in seven." You mean seven beats to the measure? I haven't heard the score. Thanks. db |

| Yes, essentially. If you're familiar with the term time signature, we would say that music is "in seven" if the time signature has 7 beats per measure. Most often, it's notated as 7/8, so there are seven beats per measure and an eighth note gets one beat. Technically, it's called septuple time. Within musical theater, Andrew Llloyd Webber is probably most famous for writing songs in seven within his musicals; nearly every show has one. "And the Money Kept Rolling In (and Out)" from EVITA is an easy example. - GMB |
