Dammit I can't find a song in my head

[TrogL]

It's an earworm. A well known group, possibly Guns and Roses or Metallica, done with orchestra. Heard it on America's got Talent as the background for one of the acts that was doing something dangerous.

I think it's in D-minor. Has a repeating riff in 3/4 time with the occasional 4/4 bar thrown in (Q=quarter, E=eighth)

Q-EEQ Q-EEQ Q-EEQ EEEEEEEE

the Q is a bass quarter note on D, the EEQ is orchestra on DA, then DBb, then DB then AG#ABbAG#AF#. There might be a repeat in there somewhere I'm missing.

Chorus is 3 big chords in 2 against 3 then 3 eight notes.

1. Is it.....

Guns and Roses cover of "Live and Let Die"?

[TrogL]

2. No. I know that piece

Wrong time signature wrong key wrong chords wrong rhythm

3. Maybe check out Metallica's S & M album, the one done with the San Francisco Orchestra.

Metallica does quite a bit of changing time in their work, and several of the songs on S & M are partially in 3/4, Nothing Else Matters is a waltz, but it's 6/8. I don't recall anything on the album with a Q-bass q note on D followed by an orchestral EEQ DA though.
