Opposites Attract

This one by Paul Abdul appears at number 14 on the list, the highest one I've looked at so far.

This one is definately a little bit different than any of the other ones I've done so far. It has a fairly standard Paula sound to it. It's almost techno-ish, defaintely a 90's tune.

The only dramatic thing i found that corresponds to the Fibonacci numbers was at the very beginning. At 8 seconds in there is a shriek-like sound which really kicks off the song.

For this song, instead of picking out a climax and seeing if that ratio was close to the golden section, I found where the golden section climax ould be and checked to see if i notcied anything in the song there. I did this particularly because i was really having trouble determining the exact climax. Anyway, at this point (165 seconds in, since the song itself is 265 seconds), while the chorus is being sung, there is a vocal track in the background which seperates this chorus from every other one in the song. Maybe thats pushing it, but it sure seems interesting to me.

Is the one with the video of Paula and the cat? Also, Paula had a rough interview recently, you should check it out on youTube. Pretty funny
