anyone know of any songs in 3/4 time?

most songs are done in 4/4, its rare to find more modern songs in 3/4 time.

3/4 4/4??? wth?
4/4 is the beat which the song follows, invervals of 4.
most songs are done (or written) in 4/4 time.
1 2 3 4, 2 2 3 4, 3 2 3 4, etc
boom clap clap clap, boom clap clap clap, etc

then theres 3/4:
you hear this beat commonly in waltz
1 2 3, 2 2 3, 3 2 3
boom clap clap, boom clap clap

some song i know of :
Mew - am i wry
The Avalanches - Two hearts in 3/4 time

3/4 time is easy you guys... try playing 32nd note triplets in 12/8 time... laugh.gif

i know that silver and cold by AFI is in 6/8... thats like 3/4 only the eighth note gets the beat instead of the quarter note.

o deary me... silver and cold isnt pop you know. its more of a punk rock sort of shindig. and the lyrics are by no means pathetic.

thats not what i was referring to. i was talking about the topic in general,, not your reply. i know what silver and cold is and although afi isnt exactly punk, im aware theyre not pop, so i wasnt saying they were.
