Bingo and 2/4 Time
If you look below you will see that this song is in 2/4 compared to the rest of music you have seen which has been in either 4/4 or 3/4. This means there are 2 beats in every bar instead of 3 or 4, listen to the metronome in Bingo to see what I mean.
Yankee Doodle
Frere Jacques
Auld Lang Syne
