This is important because the most commonly used frame of reference for measurement of the positions of astronomical objects is the Earth's equator — the so-called equatorial coordinate system. The effect of precession and nutation causes this frame of reference itself to change over time, relative to an arbitrary fixed frame.
Usually, such time signatures are mutually prime, e.g., 4 4 and 3 8, and so have no common divisors. Thus the change of the basic metre decisively alters the numerical content of the beat, but the minimal denominator (1 8 when 4 4 changes to 3 8; 1 16 when, e.g., 5 8 changes to 7 16, etc.) remains constant in duration.

This is a list of musical compositions or pieces of music that have unusual time signatures. "Unusual" is here defined to be any time signature other than simple time signatures with top numerals of 2, 3, or 4 and bottom numerals of 2, 4, or 8, and compound time signatures with top numerals of 6, 9, or 12 and bottom numerals 4, 8, or 16.
Most time signatures consist of two numerals, one stacked above the other: The lower numeral indicates the note value that the signature is counting. This number is always a power of 2 (unless the time signature is irrational), usually 2, 4 or 8, but less often 16 is also used, usually in Baroque music. 2 corresponds to the half note (minim), 4 to the quarter note (crotchet), 8 to the eighth ...
Although the song has several different changes in time signature, this alternating time is what comprises most of the song). (2006) "Falling In Between" by Toto (2006) "Epiphany of a Mushroom Man" by Pomme De Chien - 1 bar near the drum solo is in 11/8.

The many false guesses included Earth, Wind & Fire, Blackstreet, The Jonas Brothers, Big Time Rush and the Black Eyed Peas minus Fergie. Buffalos in the Season 12 finale of "The Masked Singer."
In the case of Earth, the principal sources of tidal force are the Sun and Moon, which continuously change location relative to each other and thus cause nutation in Earth's axis. The largest component of Earth's nutation has a period of 18.6 years, the same as that of the precession of the Moon's orbital nodes. [1]
