another type of music

hey guys...and recently gal.

so what kind of music do you like? ...well, anything but country. We've all heard this conversation before. And while this may be one of the most universally used and agreed on statements, there have been plenty of country artists who have managed to slip there way into pop culture. John Denver is certainly among those in that category. And the first song i think of is Take Me Home Country Roads.

Duration- 193 seconds
Climax- 120.

That gives us 1.608, right around the ratio we are looking for. I'm going to look for more of this with some other country/pop artists.

great point. no one ever thinks of country music as being mainstream, but some of the most well known songs of all time come from the country genre. For the most part, traditional country music songs are structured a little bit differently than "pop" hits, so it would be interesting to see if the golden section relates. We might even find that most people like "anything but country" because of the fact that none of the big hits conform to the rule.
