...Where Have All The
Flowers Gone
The main beat of these songs is strong on the two and four but the
words/melody are strong on the one and three. This seems to be quite
common in modern music.
"Where have all___ the flow_ers gone"
WHERE comes on the 2.
ALL comes on the 4.
We will rock you
The melody
is a more: BUDDY youre a boy MAKE a big noise...
Look at the poetic importance of the words.
You could eliminate the word BUDDY and the
phrase would still make sense. If you eliminated
BOY, it would be much less sensible as a phrase.
Sing it both ways -
BUDDY you're a boy
or
buddy you're a BOY
Which "fits" the song more comfortably.
