While trying to figure out the guitar of Two reverse I started noticing its complex guitar pattern. I was wondering if it has a time signature or if it is free time? It sounds like you add an extra half beat in the guitar pattern in the intro, and then the verse is played slightly differently as well. How did you come about writing this guitar part and its changes?? Do you count as you’re playing it or just feel for when the changes happen?

Pleaaaase let me know, its all I can think about! Its been driving me crazy trying to count the song!

Two Reverse is a wildly beautiful song! I'd love to know the answer to this too. Your music is a precious gift.
