THE BEAT

One bar, and 27% of the song

The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 34-37, 39-41 and 43-45, and 1 more place -- 26.5% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

49 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 41 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
