I think you have taken your musical understanding and theory way further than anybody else,you are in my opinion a Professor of the Guitar !

"Only Us" by Peter Gabriel and "Mother stands for comfort" by Kate Bush are to me by far the most ambiguous songs that I have ever heard. Other examples are "I'm free" by the Who, "Sex on fire" by Kings of Leon, "The happening" by the Supremes, "Go your own way" by Fleetwood Mac, "I'll never fall in love again" by Bobbie Gentry and "Memories" by Earth & Fire.

"You really got me" from the Kinks gives me that same feeling when the drums starts and when vocal stars also. Makes me crazy!

Much though Paul Davids plays riffs with great accuracy, as Jerry says, he has no musical intuition. This is typical of a trained musician who can't function without a metronome and a score. Personally, I always prefer a human interpretation to a note for note robotic reproduction.

@coreykirkbride

@@johndillon2426 you missed the entire point of the video. Hearing certain notes without rhythmic context as being the downbeat when it isn’t has nothing to do with lacking “musical intuition.” That’s ridiculous. There’s nothing wrong with being a trained musician used to working with a click and/or written score. Do you think feel can’t exist when a click track is being used?

the prodigy bassline is a super weird audio illusion where the same pattern sounds drastically different depending on where in the beat it starts. super interesting.

This was a GREAT video! There must be dozens of tunes like this, where you really have to work ti figure it out, but I've never seen it addressed before. Thanks!

I see what you mean! So the groove is in 12/8; hopefully you can hear the triples on each main beat. The drum crack at the beginning is "big beat" 4. From that point, the tricky thing is that the piano changes chords (from the 2nd to the 3rd chord) on the third eighth of big beat three of measures 1, 3, 5 and so on. Because that chord is played on that "off beat" as well as on the 3 eighth notes of beat 4 that come directly after, the listener hears a grouping of four eighths, which definitely obscures the original triple feel. To make it simpler, the main riff of the song that goes over the drum pattern is two triples and then three duples (adding to 12). You can hear it in the guitar riff of the song. If you sing that guitar riff along to the piano intro, you will see how it matches up.

That was awesome, Paul! More these, mate!

I love videos on the subject of time , time is everything in music. Great vid!

I really love how subjective these things are - for example, I'm don't find The Pretender to be confusing. Then there might be some where it's the other way around. Other honrable mentions for the list: Zep - Rock'n'Roll (everyone was at some point confused by that intro) Kings of Leon - Sex on Fire (also quite a classic "ah there's the 1"-moment by now) Bad Religion - Sorrow (would have never expected that from this band and maybe it's just me) System of a Down - Science Metallica - Fight Fire with Fire (not just the intro, all the parts with the main riff mess with my head) Pink Floyd - High Hopes (that bell) Tool - AEnima (this one does it twice - first the breathing sound implies a beat, then the guitar kicks in and it's different. And then the drums come in and change the feel again)

@Matthewrents

5 жыл бұрын

Zep - Agree. Good Choice. Kings of Leon - Also a good choice. SOAD, I only partially agree with you in a sense. It is strange because it does actually start on 1, and it is a simple 4/4. modern metal wants us to make that high note land on 4 and pull you into the strumming pattern hitting on 1. So if you let your brain work to hard, you will get mixed up! Metallica doesn't count, because they always use odd time signatures! ;) Pink Floyd - Agree again. Wanting that bell to be the downbeat, it is almost hard to hear it not as the beat before the vocals kick in. Tool, I think this is probably one of the tamest Tool intros out there. This one is more straightforward, where the breathing, the guitar, the drums, they are all ON the downbeat. Hearing it in 3/4 becomes clear once the drums kick in, but I don't think the breathing or the guitar really take you "off track" in any way like some of the others do. Good list!

Yeah, it's very subjective. I think it has a lot to do with how you were first exposed to the song. I have later realized that I have felt a lot of Metallica's faster songs incorrectly (I originally thought the snare is playing on the strong beats when it's actually playing on the weaker beats), but because I first heard these songs when I was a kid and that's how I felt the rhythm back then, it is really difficult to unlearn my old ways. I'm pretty sure if I had just heard those songs for the first time, my perception would be quite different because my musical abilities have obviously improved since I was a kid. As a kid, "Tico Tico" was a song that I heard differently (it starts with a three 16th note pickup bar, but I originally heard the first note as the first beat - don't know how that's even possible, but maybe back then I had no idea of how samba rhythms work, and I first heard the song when I was like five years old in an old Donald Duck cartoon that we used to watch a lot), and for a long time I had the incorrect rhythm of the melody in my head. I actually only recently learned the correct rhythm when I had a dance band gig as a bassist. But it's funny how the song suddenly became way different - it's like a whole another song.

Take it Easy from the Eagles is another example

I instantly thought of Karnivool, many of their intros are so misleading. Listen for example to Goliath, Umbra, but most of all to The Caudal Lure

The Mirror got me at first too, but I found it ultracool, specially because a few bars later the drums come back to the pattern that you initially thought that follows the guitar riff.

@Rubber Soul lol this dude was so random and sounded weird I cracked up😂😂😂

These are just things techniques to make arrangements more interesting. If a melody does something you expect it to do all of the time it’s boring. The same with rhythms. This is just being applied to larger arrangements. It’s just like story structure. 1. Hobbit leaves the shire, 2 overwhelmed wants to return home 3 decides to continue based on his principles, shows his character. It’s the same with music. It would be stupid if Bilbo just went “derr sure thing I’ll help, no problem!” and there was no conflict. That’s what these arrangements that sort of jar your senses are doing. They’re jarring you but also deepening the character of the message and impact of the melody and heart of the core rhythm.

Your videos productions are getting better and more creative I like it. Ita good to see your treating it like an art more and more, to many people it's just sit in front of a camera and talk, not that theres anything wrong with that, but nice to see you doing more and more with it. Its appreciated, also the video topic is very good.

I'm so happy this video exists. There are so many songs I've known all my life whose intros confuse me in this way (including Invaders Must Die). Others which do are My Recovery Injection and As Dust Dances, both by Biffy Clyro, and My Party by Kings of Leon.

The reason why the intro from drive my car was different was because the melody starts at the upbeat of the song... Without the drum beat we mostly confuse it with the downbeat.

Awesome video, mate! A the three songs that fool me over and over again were there. 1st, 2nd and last. The only one that was missing for me was in the air tonight by Phil Collins. I used to think the first sound of that drum machine was the 8th of the previous beat. You know the snares there were on 1 and two. The rudiment makes more sense to me that way. And now that I've gotten over it I see Phil wasn't being all mysterious with his timing before the drum fill of our lives. Great video! Keep em coming.

Great video,very intresting. Most of these can boil down to strict time writing vs writing what they felt. It makes for some confusing switches in songs.

Yeah but Drive My Car is on a planet all its own. Still can't un-hear the wrong one enough to feel the right one when listening to the original. I'm so glad it messes you up too! :-) I think good ol Geoff Emerick might have been a little wacky with his razor when he spliced in a take from when Ringo was a little high and they now get it as close as they can when live.

Let the good times roll-The Cars. Same issue.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I can get stuck on much easier songs intros and sometimes it takes me over an hour or more to figure out.
