You are right. Let's never speak of this again. If we're talking about crazy time signatures, you know who's good for that? Timbaland. He's the Dave Brubeck of gangsta rap. BuggerATION.

No. I've counted the booms. I don't actually own a copy, but in my head there are booms, and they take up a whole bar. Count them. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4. "On". Maybe in YOUR head, there are five. Maybe it's in 5/4 time. Maybe you're confusing it with Take Five by Dave Brubeck, in which case yeah, stick another boom on there. Tell you what, bang in a couple more, make why not make it seven and we can sing it along to Money by Pink Floyd. I'm happy to stand corrected, but I think it's four booms and an on. And yes, kind of. Right. No. I’ve counted the booms. I don’t actually own a copy, but in my head there are booms, and they take up a whole bar. Count them. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4. “On”.

YOU HAVEN'T DONE ENOUGH BOOMS. It should be "The heat is on (boom boom boom boom boom)". I bet you're regretting the "Also on This Is This" feature now.

YOU HAVEN’T DONE ENOUGH BOOMS. It should be “The heat is on (boom boom boom boom boom)”.

I bet you’re regretting the “Also on This Is This” feature now.
