I love the way "Tango in the Night" transitions from a straight-up 4/4 time signature to a 4/8 tango time signature for the bridge and chorus. But it's not just any tango... it's a dark, sadistic, menacing tango- the kind in which the rose clenched between your teeth is full of thorns. It conjures up images of ashen figures tangoing in robotic synchrony under a moonlit sky. Spooky!
