The Top Ten
1 15 Step

It's in 5/4 time - this doesn't become fully clear until the drums come in.

2 Everything in Its Right Place

This song is in 10/4 time. There's a pulsing beat in the song that propels it forward.

Great song.
Also yeah, the mix of 4/4 and 7/8 is pretty neat too.

Most of it is in 4/4, but some sections of the song are in 7/8.

This song is also in 7/4 time.

It's written in 9/8; it's counted at a relatively slow pace.

10 Pyramid Song

It's 4/4 but somewhat complicated

The Contenders
