I counted it like this (3-2-3-4)(3-2-3-4)(3-2-3)= 32 A friend of mine counted as below (6-6-4)(6-6-4)=32 After sometime it dawned on me it could might as well be 4/4😅.

Or Will it be just 4/4.. https://open.spotify.com/track/53g64SORXWwpp8qnwDauGV?si=0yDFn89jRQKKI3n9g-x6q Listen to Jason Zac's latest album, "The Absence of Laughter" on all platforms: https://orcd.co/theabsenceoflaughter Collaborate.
