No, the siren is in 7/4 and the beat is following the siren. So the whole thing is in 7/4.
I don't know if it still is, I wasn't paying attention to it completely the other night. It definitely isn't the same thing he was using as an entrance in WCW, they souped it up a bit. | LennyAaronRoxx

| #7 Posted on 6.11.02 2226.26 Reposted on: 6.11.09 2229.03 | 4/4 means four quarter notes per measure, so you can count along with the song: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4. Most popular music these days is in 4/4.
7/4 means seven quarter notes per measure, so if you were counting along, it'd go: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3. If you're used to 4/4, it would sound like it was dropping one beat every other measure.
I haven't noticed that about BPP's theme, but now I'm all excited!

The only thing I retained from band is a fierce hatred of memories of attempting anything outside 4/4, 3/4, and 6/8 (if I was concentrating)
Those damn sirens are REALLY annoying. Hopefully they tweak the theme to move them to the background. | The Amazing Salami

Listen to "Money" by Pink Floyd. That intro just feels all weeeiiirrddd. It's cause it's in 7/4. | The Squire

are all not in 4/4..either 3/4 or 7/8
I *like* the sirens..totally adds to the freak Steiner idea. I saw Steiner's entrance once, in Germany and with a whole lotta flashlights and cop like lights I thought it was an amazing entrance.. | Karlos the Jackal

| #15 Posted on 8.11.02 0832.20 Reposted on: 8.11.09 0844.33 | | No way. I listened to it too. Becuase it's a really basic beat (thump THUMP thump THUMP) it could be in any time, which most people subconciously hear as 4/4 becuase it's so common. But start counting the beats between the sirens and it's 7 beats, start over. Since the siren and the beat were the only things in the old intro, that's definitely 7/4. Now that there's other stuff in the intro, maybe they've switched it, but I don't think so. | Sinister Evil

Yeah, you may be right about that.
Although it seems that a thump THUMP beat is going to be an even-numbered tempo, or you'd have to toss in a thump THUMP THUMP in there, no?
