Who's got the fastest BPM?

(1/3) > >>

JollyJim:
I was analysing a few tracks earlier on and MC returned a  BPM of 3387 for Roberta Flack's 'Feel Like Making Love'....She must have one hell of a metabolic rate !!!

It was kinda disappointing when I reran it and it gave the correct value of 93BPM.

I was interested in who might have the fastest BPM....

Well of my 13,187 files the winner is Jealous by Robert Palmer at a BPM of 155.  Second place goes to Wasted On The Way by Crosby Stills and Nash at 153 and two tied for third at 151 are Birdsong by Cleo Laine and Moment of Conception by David Byrne.
Frankly, I'm not sure the BPM and Intensity ratings work.  Does anyone have any experience with them or thoughts on this?

It's easy to test it. Just listen to one minute of the song and count the beats (or listen to 15 seconds and multiply by 4). It's seems to be pretty accurate for the tracks I've looked at.
