On the #listeningto saved search, I saw each of these songs tonight.

I therefore offer these contemporary tempo maps by the mean speed® music company /New Jersey Free School in order that the people listening to theses songs can see the speed.

Phil Collins Speed Map- In-The-Air-Tonight-modern-velocity-view

Meanspeed® Music- NJ Free School Comparison map - Steely Dan - Cat Stevens- pattern recognition

OLIVER SACHS!? DAN LEVETIN!? BRUNO REPP!?  What are these patterns called by your area of academia?  I showed this to a cardiologist who especially prides himself on the ‘that is a pattern’ or that is NOT a pattern’ distinction.  There are similarities here, and though I may have doubted them, the Doctor did not.

However, he is a heart surgeon!  Any of you – especially the “big 3″ as per named above – if you have a simple way to explain these, *please8 join the conversation.

Thanks!
