"She will never learn the most necessary, most difficult and principal thing in music, that is time, because from childhood she has designedly cultivated the habit of ignoring the beat." Letter to Leopold Mozart (24 October 1777)
The song You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling was popular when I was a boy in the late 1960s.
Maybe it’s just me – of course it is – but eve trying to generalize – the song sounds oddly betray the lyrics.

Maybe it’s just me – of course it is – but eve trying to generalize – the song sounds oddly betray the lyrics.
What does that even mean? To me , it means that the male singer who realizes the object of his affection has left him physically andn by inclusion spiritual loyalty, usually sings the vey sad ballad. By contrast, the Righteous Brothers (I’m not sure which brother lost the girl here, or whether it’s a story written of their truth – I am taking the *plain meaning* of the lyrics*.
To me, a song like this comes after you have gotten over your object of love infatuation, you have moved on, and are happy about it.
The song itself as instrumentally and by composition in my personal listening, and I’d love to hear from others on this, plays as enthusiatically ready, whereas the words on a page a poem are more sad, all of which adds up to an *unforgettable song*.
Feel free to use the chart however ya choose. Except being mean. I think a chart thta ws made in the 1990s won me serious concern with the maps of sacred songs. I’ve considered putting a warning on the page about hat – but no readerhas ever comented about it, so I’ve stayed the same.

The song as represented in speed as tempo in “beats per minute” are represented by the red sections of the circle.
The 360 degrees of the circle embodies the whole song. It is what is is – very simple and “single variance” oriented: I’m only measuring tempo, one of trillions of elemets of music.

Most popular songs stay within 5% of their tempo.
Lyrics
There’s a lady who’s sure All that glitters is gold And she’s buying a stairway to heaven When she gets there she knows If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Oh oh oh oh and she’s buying a stairway to heaven
There’s a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure ‘Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings In a tree by the brook There’s a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgivingOoh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it makes me wonderThere’s a feeling I get When I look to the west And my spirit is crying for leaving In my thoughts I have seen Rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those who standing looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it’s whispered that soon, If we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason And a new day will dawn For those who stand long And the forests will echo with laughter
If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow Don’t be alarmed now It’s just a spring clean for the May queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by But in the long run There’s still time to change the road you’re on And it makes me wonder
These two songs are the wildest of exceptions. Led Zeppelin and The Beatles multi-tempo songs are popular exceptions. Even the best intern said – “those two songs were not easy to measure.”
Both songs show a complete average of between 80-84 beats per minute. Make s me wonder (sorry) if the moods are similar in their expression or the tempo average of multi-part songs are coincidental or are both the cries of one in solitude seeking the companionship of others.
Google has provided all one would was to know about these songs except for tempo charts –
Lyrics
“Dub the mic on the piano quite low this Just keeping it like maracas, you know You know those old pianos””Ok, we’re on””Sugarplum fairy, sugarplum fairy
“I read the news today, oh boy About a lucky man who made the grade And though the news was rather sad Well, I just had to laugh I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car He didn’t notice that the lights had changed A crowd of people stood and stared They’d seen his face before Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today, oh boy The English Army had just won the war A crowd of people turned away But I just had to look Having read the book I’d love to turn you on”Five, six, seven, eight, nine Ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen Twenty”Woke up, fell out of bed Dragged a comb across my head Found my way downstairs and drank a cup And looking up I noticed I was late Found my coat and grabbed my hat Made the bus in seconds flat Made my way upstairs and had a smoke And everybody spoke and I went into a dream”Oh shit”I read the news today, oh boy Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire And though the holes were rather small They had to count them all Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall I’d love to turn you”See the worst thing about doing this Doing something like this Is I think that at first people sort of are a bit suspicious ‘You know, come on, what are you up to?’Songwriters: John Lennon / Paul McCartney
Joe Cocker’s version of a song you are so beautiful it’s one of the most beautiful songs of the 20th century.

The diagram pictured here of the measurements that I took of the frequencies of exactly how fast the song is in all places in the continuous measurement.
which shoes fit exactly. Which eyeglasses correct perfectly? That is a personal question for *you*.
If you are like me, or my friend Nick Avenscion of Los Angeles, a slow song in the middle of a playlist is as individual as taste in music itself.
Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights is a song that is a personal favorite of mine, and calms me through the hard part of a simple treadmill walk – around minute 21 through 25. To me, the slow song as a Wuthering Heights illustrates how we can choose our own favorites, just like we can dress ourselves, and know what we like to eat for supper.
Three songs of note within 1% of the speed of Takin’ It To The Street are Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits, Jumping Jack Flash by the Rolling Stones, Dancing In The Dark by Bruce Springsteen and Love Me Do by The Beatles.
One, I had no idea what these men had planned for the streets. To the best of my knowledge, Rob Reiner is 100 years old and lives in a gated-off community in Hollywood where even if he “took to the streets” it would mean no adventure.

And Cenk Uygur of Route 27 in my home state of New Jersey. I respect Cenk. But I like near Douglass and all. What Cenk had planned for the “streets” kinda freaked me out a little.
Like: guys, love the passion, maybe save it for when we really need it?
The popular song “Candle In The Wind” was first released on a double album of extraordinary creativity, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. The double studio album is almost impossible to pull off, but when it works, it is classic.
