As I have shown this week, the songs by REM, Fall On Me and that by the Zombies, Time Of The Season have the same meanspeed: foreboding. While this is wherer the mean of the speeds are, both of these piece feature sections in the neighboring categories of victory and lust.
For both songs=, the frequencies are;
meanspeed=117.9 beats per minute;
meanspace=0.509 seconds between beats, 2.04 seconds per measure;
meanbeat=1.965 beats per second;
meanfrequency=1.965 Hertz as pulses per minute;
meantone=251.52 Hertz, 31 cents above B3=246.942 Hertz and 69 cents below C4=329.628.
