RE: My original song Spanish Armada Blues for Open Mic Week 40 (with lyrics)
Cool 12/8 feel and very expressive lyrics, I enjoyed your song a lot @thebigdelay.

Thanks, I didn't even know it was in 12/8, so that's really interesting!
You're welcome @thebigdelay. Its magic is the triplet feel associated with the 12/8, counting 1 2 3, 2 2 3, 3 2 3, 4 2 3 . Lots of flow and cruising vibes.
Thanks for the explanation. I might use it in more songs now I know that I'm doing it!
You are welcome @thebigdelay. That triplet feel just comes naturally and really fits certain songs. When it is in 12/8, the phrase is 4 triplets and there are more ways for other instruments or vocals to play within the phrase.
