117 bars, 6:41, at 70 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, mid tom, floor tom and kick and nothing else.
57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-24, ride through bars 25-26, hi-hat through bars 27-30, ride through bars 31-32, hi-hat through bars 33-70 and ride through bars 71-86, and 6 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-3, 5-11 and 13-19, and 10 more places -- 41% of every bar the kit plays. Learn that one and most of the song is already under your hands.

70 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
57 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 30 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
