Talk:Synchronicity (album)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I don't see how Miss Gradenko is a song "about a woman in some sort of dystopian future".

[edit] Synchronicity: Could someone tell me which metre that song is in?

The song "Synchronicity I" you mean? It's 6/4, as opposed to the more common 6/8. 6/4 is not an "odd" time signature, but the grouping of this song can be analysed as a syncopated "4/4+2/4" or "5/4+4/16", and gives it the "odd" feel. (there's plenty of room for other analyses of the rhythm, but these are the basics... having not heard the song for years, just remembering the hook. -Tzf 22:12, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Murder By Numbers wasn't on the original LP, right?
I remember buying this album being disappointed that Murder By Numbers was only on the Audio Cassette release. At the time I felt personally affronted by this! Any self-respecting collector would not buy audio cassettes because they could easily get "eaten", particularly by the notorious car cassette players of the time. So I would buy only LP's and make my own cassette copies of them. I'm sure it was included on the first CD edition too, but when did that come out? Did Murder By Numbers appear on later LP releases? Or have I got it all wrong, and it was on the original LP release? -Tzf 22:12, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
