Q: I absolutely love the new song. I'm very curious about the time signature when you sing "ba da dee da da dee do". How would that be notated? Did you change from 4/4 to 7/8? It sounds so fascinating. Please enlighten me!
A: it's all in 4 but it kind of pretends to be in 3 over the course of the same bar length. so triplets would probably do the trick. you could do &a1 a2e 3, (that's rigidly 16ths) or you could do &a1 let2trip 3 (using mostly triplets). in reality it's probably stretched somewhere in between those 2, but the time signature does not change
