Bari and Alto Registered User Registered: 9/3/2003 posted: 9/3/2003 at 5:46:45 PM ET When someone says eight bars it means to have eight measures prepared (a measure is when you see the little seperating line in the music) Anonymous Anonymous Poster From Internet Network: 24.25.85.x posted: 1/31/2004 at 11:50:25 AM ET Hi, How do I find out how many measures are in a song that I need to sing? Anonymous Anonymous Poster From Internet Network: 64.229.147.x posted: 2/4/2004 at 1:07:24 AM ET TO find out how many bars in a song, the general rule of thumb is that there are 4 beats in 1 bar. Therefore, count every beat as the song plays and divide by 4. Why anyone would need to know this is strange to me. Do you think this topic is inappropriate? Vote it down.
