The singer can say that I like this a little bit faster or that a little slower, but it's still the drummer that starts the song according to his feel at the time. No matter how much you've given it thought beforehand, it's still up to the drummer to get the tempo "right". The rest of the band just has to go with it.

I agree with what you're saying, but I'm not speaking in generalities. I'm talking about this song specifically with RD's examples. They're not just a hair off from each other, there had to have been a conscious effort to slow down the song.

It's just a little click in the band member's in-ear-monitors (or at least the drummer's) to keep the tempo and keep everything in sync. Yes, most bands do use them.

You'd think a guy with as much wisdom like he has would be able to answer a simple question like his. I am just seriously start to wonder how smart he really is, because if he is, he's surely not showing it!

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Why not have a drink together? He seems like he could use it, and you'd like some. Maybe you could teach him a thing or two and actually make him smarter.
