Day 14: A song involving math in any form you want.

this is a rough one for me and my strict brain...i know there have been some grumbles, but i think the effort and originality in creating themes has been great, but certainly more challenging...so with that said...todays song was chosen because it has been analyzed for its mathematical structure, with some suggesting it follows the golden ratio, a mathematical concept where a ratio of two numbers is approximately 1.618. Some analyses suggest that the song's structure, including the placement of verses, choruses, and bridges, aligns with the golden ratio, creating a sense of natural flow and musical balance. so, what is the mathematically perfect song?

Olivia Rodrigo - drivers license​

I grew up watching these, and had all of the original songs on CD. I loaded up an MP3 player for my kid when she was in kindergarten, and that is why she can still recite the Preamble to the US Constitution from heart. And she knows that three is a magic number.

From an Schoolhouse Rocks cover album that I actually owned at one point

Three Is A Magic Number - Blind Melon

Same here! My kids both had the schoolhouse rocks CDs and dvds, and the cover cd. The preamble, and interplanet Janet, interjections, elbow room, and of course three is the magic number and a metric fuck ton more.

Are you such a dreamer
To put the world to rights?

Ooh throw pi and the Fibonacci sequence in there and it becomes absolute chaos, or fractal.. depending on the decimal

This one uses the Fibonacci sequence in a handful of ways! I think it’s cool when bands get technical like that. And you can listen to the song and never know it.

Tool - Lateralus

 

[morelikeasong]

And I’m gonna go ahead and use my second song pass here.
Happy pi day!
This was my ringtone, back when that was a thing people did, and the reason I can recite 37 digits of pi.

One of the best bands of all time. Garage, punk, psychedelia. And that’s just here. They also did all kinds of orchestral and folk rock arrangements too.

"I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical /
I understand equations, but the simply and quadratical /
About binomial theorem I am teeming with a lot of news /
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse"

I would have put money on this being your choice.

"I’m very good at integral and differential calculus..."

99 Problems - Jay Z

I would argue it took some math to figure out that out of his 99 problems, a bitch wasn't one... so there.
