This is a song by the Dave Matthews Band called Where Are You Going from the CD Busted Stuff.

1) mean speed/average velocity=97.1 beats per minute;
2) average beat length=618 milliseconds;
b) average beat length=2.47 seconds per measure;
3) beat frequency=1.317 beats per second;
4) frequency expressed in audiological academic terms=1.6183 Hertz/cycles per second;
5) corresponding pitch=414.293 Hertz, 96 cents above G4=391.995 Hertz and 4 cents below 4 cents G#/Ab= 415.305 Hertz.

While DMB’s “#41” is firmly fixed in the speed of lust and desire, Where Are You Going is a song that is an archetype song of confident enthusiasm, much in the line of Stevie Wonder‘s Knocks Me Off My Feet at the same speed range–joy in infatuation sometimes makes for great songs.

the Dave Matthews band are:
David Matthews, vocal and acoustic guitar, Carter Beauford, drums and percussion, Leroi Moore, woodwinds and horns of every type, Boyd Tinsley, electric violin and Stefan Lessard, bass player of many strings.
