Questions

What BPM is secret My lips?

170 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.

Is secret My lips hard to play on drums?

63 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 38 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

174 bars, about 4:06 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 62 exercises over 18 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in secret My lips?

12 fills to learn, played 28 times: bars 3, 10, 11, 27, 34, 35 and 22 more.
