What every man needs

"Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison, I got the song off "The All-Time Greatest Hits of Roy Orbison." Its amazing how timeless this song really is, I bet you if you played the song for someone under the age of 12, they would either recognize or love the song.

The climax of the song is when Roy goes to hit the high note on "tonight" during the verse "Come with me baby, Be mine tonight." I think most people have a guilty pleasure of trying to match Roy on that note whether in their car or in the shower. Well, at least I do.

Duration: 178 seconds
Climax: 110 seconds

178 by 110 equals 1.6182. That's as close as we'll probably get folks. There's got to be some sort of correlation between all these hit songs and the golden section.
