Counterpoint: If people from Europe love the metric system so much, why are their musicians using eighth notes instead of tenth notes?
We do, it just depends on the time signature.
Silence your foolish mouth!
We do?
Ever listen to Meshuggah?
Fuckin A!
My brother! I literally came to comment “If musicians love the metric system so much, why do they still use fractional notes?”
You can but isn’t as nice
I want you to try counting 10/4
Everything is 1/1 if you stop being a nerd.
I’ve played in 1/1 and its terrible
While you are counting that switch over to 10 hour days. There is no reason there has to be 60 minutes in an hour or 60 seconds. 12/24/60 are just divisible well.
10 hours days are not standard. Music time signatures are different depending on the music and composer preference
Ok, understood.
It’s a yardonome you ignorant swine.
it’s a gardognome you ignorant leprechaun
This is the best
wrong sub buddy, go back to !dadjokes
They’re called thetubenomes in UK
Jfc.
Just fucking wrecked my brain, tyvm.
Because space is so much cooler in the imperial system
It’s US customary, not Imperial.
In music, metre or meter refers to regularly recurring patterns and accents such as bars and beats
Because “metronome” means regular measure, not regular metre.
Is a beat a metric or Imperial unit?
Typically tempo is given in Beats-per-minute, while the SI unit would be Hz (Beats/second) but it’s just a matter of dividing or multiplying by 60 to convert one to the other and minutes are anyway not more Imperial than they are Metric, so in short I have not answered you questions, you are very welcome.

They learned from the poets about metrical feet!
If Europeans love metric so much, why do they measure their TVs in inches?
Okay wait now I’m actually wondering, aren’t these things made in South Korean which uses metric, as well?
Just look at the name. They measure metrosexuals not meters. /s
I just looked it up. They measure law.
Imperonomes lol
Asking the REAL questions! Probably playing the Freedom scale instead of chromatic as well, if you just walk up all the white notes it plays the national anthem.
