Platt asked:
Does Pink Floyd employ the rock beat? If so, that's prima facie evidence
of it's sexual implications.
dmb says:
George Martin, the producer of The Beatles, has done a series of
documentaries on the basics of music. In one episode he explains that the
rhythm of Western forms is based on two basic biological rhythms; walking
and the heartbeat.
But I'm gonna guess that most rock songs really do mimic sex as Platt and
Bloom experience it in that they are usually done in less than four minutes.
