OMG yes on the Bolero. I have sometimes listened to that on repeat too many times to admit and still sound sane :-). I've always wanted to ask someone (paging CHROMOLUME) how to count that. I know it's the melody from What You Need, but I cannot for the life of me figure out the time signature. Parts of it remind me of Liaisons--odd but go with me. So maybe it's 3/2 or something like that.
Agreed on Steel Pier. And actually the part I mentioned at the end starts with the same plaintive piano solo you like from the beginning (you probably already know that) but it is developed more fully with the orchestra, ending on a few blasting chords that are to remind us of "Second Chance".
I don't know the Redhead number. I 'll check it out. Thanks! |
