Uses "Killing me Softly" by Roberta Flack to demonstrate the omnipresence of anticipation in popular music. Talks about the importance of Stevie Wonder's work between 1972 and 1976 and shows in "Don't you worry about a thing", how Stevie Wonder uses pulse, tempo, subdivision, accent, swing, cross-rhythm, syncopation, repetition and layering.

  • THIS GUY MAKES ME SO FUCKING HORNY I WANT TO STICK MY DICK INTO HIS ASS AND SCREAM SO MUCH OHHHHHHHH I CAN PICTURE IT IN MY HEAD RIGHT NOWWWW

  • holy cow at the example around 1:30-1:40 with "killing me softly"! that's what really made it suddenly click with me *leaves computer to play guitar with drum machine*

  • @jamesdragonforce

    I definitely get what you're saying.Dime and Vinny were unbelievable rhythmically.Dime was a true genius on the guitar. However..they were the exception for the most part. There is so much junk metal out there it boggles the mind.98 percent of metal players..in comparison to Dime..are just lame guitarists with no imagination who play way too fucking loud.I could listen to Dime all day and never get tired of him.I can't say that for any other metal guitarist.

  • Outro was very "Clockwork Orange" Goodall takes a sinister turn! Haha "Welly well then my droogies, today we're looking at synchopathic beatings of old men and women" Lolz = )

  • 7:26

  • The best piece of syncopated rhythm ever is the percussion intro to Pink Floyd's 'Time'.

  • that's amazing!

  • @jamesdragonforce darrell was a phenomenal musician .I saw him live and he blew me away. The guy cant include everything really he completely skipped over motown . James jamerson andn the funk bros are arguably onee of the most influential musicians out there .John Bonham ,and John Paul Jones were very influenced by Motown.

  • It somewhat disappoints me that there really is no mention of metal so far in this documentary. It is ads much a style of music like the rest as it is, arguably, diverse. A good example for a more rhythmic style of metal is Pantera, most notably how Dimebag Darrel deliberately lags behind the melody in Walk is what makes that song the fan favorite. Maybe it's because there's not enough people out there that see metal as more than a bunch of loud garbage.

  • @avfcgoffy The same happened to me, I don't know why but it sounds too comic.
