History is on-topic on the (launched, in beta) Musical Practice & Performance site. I see no need to duplicate it here. – Matthew Read Oct 8 '11 at 16:41

Borders on music theory, but those interested in the technical aspects of music they listen to (eg. people like me) would be very interested. Also, a great "expert" question. – Rahul Aug 23 '10 at 14:43

closed as duplicate of Help me remember the song. The lyrics contains <some-vague-memory>. The music video contains <some-vague-memory> by Dori Oct 8 '11 at 0:40

This question covers exactly the same ground as another question in this proposal.

This question is not a good fit to our Q&A format. We expect answers to generally involve facts, references, or specific expertise; this question will likely solicit opinion, debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion.

I'd add just a little more qualification. 11 and 7/8 are almost definite uncommon, but what about 3/4? Do you want songs that are NOT 2/2 2/4 4/4 6/8 or 12/8? :D – CrazyJugglerDrummer Jan 2 '11 at 15:53

thanks! i have clarified :D – carolclarinet Jan 2 '11 at 20:36

This is a list question, and would have many good answers. Not a good example. – neilfein Apr 27 '11 at 14:10

This question is unlikely to ever help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.

Example answer: "According to [music site], band member Anthony Kiedis indicated they'd probably debut some songs in October at RockFest [link]" – Rahul Aug 23 '10 at 14:49

Would be interesting whether or not this Question should be kept after the debut. – Tshepang Jan 2 '11 at 12:21

Speculative, and the answer would be out-of-date quickly. Would vote to close if this question were on the site. – neilfein Apr 27 '11 at 14:10

I think this is going to be one of the strengths of this site. The ability to ask for very specific recommendations that Google can never answer. – EpsilonVector Jul 13 '11 at 4:49

This question does not relate to the topic of the proposal.
It was closed as part of an automated migration of off-topic to close votes on September 29, 2011.

With gadgets closed, there doesn't seem to be a better stack exchange site for such questions, unless the device in question is Apple or Android. However, questions less focused on the music than on the method of listening could certainly be considered off-topic. – eswald Dec 12 '10 at 4:15

This sort of question is on-topic on the (launched, in beta) Musical Practice & Performance site. I see no need to duplicate it here. (In fact, I believe we already have a question on banjo tunings). – Matthew Read Oct 8 '11 at 16:54
