| Mar 29, 2016 at 17:05 | comment | added | BobRodes | Again, listen for that loud drum note. It happens on four. Once you get that, start counting from there. | |
| Mar 29, 2016 at 16:11 | comment | added | Foxcat385 | @BobRodes The problem is that I'm a ♪ off so my one-two-three-four will also be off. What should I do now? | |
| Mar 29, 2016 at 12:23 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | @topomorto Mostly good advice, although I learned recently to my shock and dismay that in some cases dancers have a different "one" from musicians for the same rhythm! I was researching the cha-cha, which most dancers will count, "one, two, cha-cha-cha" while the musican would count the same beats "two, three, four-and-one". | |

| Mar 29, 2016 at 7:09 | comment | added | Tetsujin | A method I've used in the past is to get the track into a DAW, manually make a click track from the part where I do understand the timing [usually after the drums come in, or similar obvious cue] then slide it back until I've set up a 4-click into & through the difficult bit - usually the intro. Listening to that version for a while, I can then pick up the timing better if I ever hear it without my click. Eventually it just sinks in. | |
| Mar 29, 2016 at 6:57 | comment | added | Tim | The Beatles' 'She's a Woman' used to do that to me. Then I realised that the intro is all off beat chords, which initially sound like they're on the beat. | |
| Mar 29, 2016 at 5:59 | comment | added | BobRodes | In the first one, you will notice that the 4th beat is accented in the drums, especially in the passage you mention starting at 1:01. Try counting one-two-three-FOUR-one-two-three-FOUR and see if that helps. | |

| Mar 28, 2016 at 23:17 | comment | added | Foxcat385 | Yeah, just after I asked the question, but I still hear it the same. | |
| Mar 28, 2016 at 20:21 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | Have you tried learning to play the parts in question and counting out loud with the correct meter while you play? | |
