“A few people, when we wrote ‘Possibility’, said ‘the metre is really weird in that song’. I had never really thought about it because I didn’t notice, and I realized that that was from the Métis fiddling. A lot of guitar players have so much trouble with Métis fiddling because it has really odd bars, and ‘Possibility’ is the same way – but I don’t notice it! I don’t notice it in the fiddle tunes either. It’s just a tune. It’s straight time to me!
