Half of the times signatures in there couldn't even exist. There is no way you can have a 66/66 time signature because there aren't 66th notes in music. Maybe 64th notes, but not 66ths. I thought it would be appropriate though.

"At this very moment on stage we have Drummer A playing in 7/8, Drummer B playing in 3/4, the bass playing in 3/4, the organ playing in 5/8, the tambourine playing in 3/4 and the alto sax blowing its nose."

I got a kick out of the credits in the upper right: Words and music by John Stump, Arranged by Accident.

there's that 11/4 part of 'under a glass moon'
if you want odd signatures look at Stravinsky's 'Rite of Spring' or anything by Liszt
"1973) "Money" by Pink Floyd, although the solo is in 4/4, as David Gilmour believed that it would be too difficult in simple septuple meter. The triplet/shuffle feel makes this time debatable; it is technically in 21/8. Source: ISBN 8882917533 "Pink Floyd Guitar Tab Anthology" and[3] "
did anyone read this? what the hell?

I read somewhere that National Health's Tenemous roads is 25/16 at one point, but I've tried to count it and never found it.

time signatures dont always make a song complex. Five Per Cent For Nothing is in 4/4

The first song off of the Area album "Arbeit Macht Frei" has its first
synth riff in 27/16... and the bridge of "Cygnus... Vismund Cygnus" by
The Mars Volta is also in 27/16.
It's a very common time signature, apparently. |
