For those who were wondering, here's the time signature scoop...
See You in Black begins in 11/8, with the verses in alternating measures of
4/4 and 7/8, and the chorus in 4/4. The 11/8 pattern returns a time or two as
well.
Interestingly, the chorus of Power Underneath Despair is ALSO in alternating
bars of 4/4 and 7/8. Perhaps, since experimentation of this sort is rare for
BOC, once they settled upon an odd pattern that suited them they figured they
might as well stick with it...:-)
