Q: pls help bill what are the time signatures in i wanna be a movie star? i've been struggling to discover it but it's so difficult and
A: the main hook/chorus is 4+5 (alternating 4, and 5.) the verse goes 4, 5, 4, 5, 3, 3, 6 (i know you may think it makes no sense to use 3's and 6's both, but that's just the way i think of it. you could break any of these up any way you want) and the second half of the first verse is the same BUT, i can't remember, there might be an extra beat at the end of the verse, so the second time around might be 7 or 6. i remember there was some discrepancy here, different ones felt like they needed to be different ways. i haven't heard it since it was released. the end of each verse might be either 6 or 7, you'll have to count yourself, i haven't heard it since it was released and i'm not listening to it now. The chorus right before the bridge is cut short, so that entire chorus would be 4, 5, 4, 5, 4, 5, 4, 3. The bridge is 6, 7, 6, 4, 7 (you could break this up in many different ways. also not totally sure about what the hang time is on the end of the bridge, i don't remember for sure) all these times are expressed in terms of quarter notes. so when i say "5" that means "5/4"
