This means that the division of the beats is a repeating sequence of 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4 etc...</p> <p>However, in the true spirit of rock and roll rebellion a lot of bands have defied this "rule" with massively successful songs with odd beat divisions (aka odd meter or odd time signatures) of 5/4 (1 2 3 4 5), 7/4 (1 2 3 4 5 6 7) and even mixed meter time signatures like 1 2 3 4 and 1 2 3 as an example.</p> <p>Have I confused you yet? LOL!</p> <p>Don't worry. Because on this week's Loudini Rock & Roll Circus podcast we will explain it all as we tell you about 10 bands who released massively successful songs with odd time signatures.</p> <p> </p> <p>Check out the podcast here  <a href='https://www.talkshoe.com/episode/17743600'>https://www.talkshoe.com/episode/17743600</a></p> <p>Topics Covered:</p> <p><a href='https://www.sos2020pgh.org/'>https://www.sos2020pgh.org</a>/</p> <p><a href='https://www.thisdayinmusic.com/'>https://www.thisdayinmusic.com</a>/</p> <p><a href='https://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-dave-brubeck-quartet/take-five'>Take Five </a>(5/4)</p> <p><a href='https://www.songfacts.com/facts/dionne-warwick/i-say-a-little-prayer'>Say A little Prayer</a> (chorus in 11/4)</p> <p><a href='https://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-allman-brothers-band/whipping-post'>Whippin Post</a> (11/8)</p> <p><a href='https://www.songfacts.com/facts/pink-floyd/money'>Money</a>  (7/8)</p> <p><a href='https://www.songfacts.com/facts/peter-gabriel/solsbury-hill'>Solsbury Hill </a>(7/4)</p> <p><a href='https://www.songfacts.com/facts/the-beatles/all-you-need-is-love'>All You Need Is Love </a>(7/4) one w
