Quite frankly this queen of air and, if the title is accurate, darkness seems far more intriguing. Zot!
(By the way, do A.E. Houseman and T.H. White have anything to say about that title...? [look it up, if you care at all]{and you should not})
I decided to torture my wife by playing this with the windows rolled down. https://imgur.com/Tg75R0X

It's straight up (slow) 4/4 time but he skips a lot of beats. (Skips, i.e., doesn't play, but they're still there.) He also hits the off-eighths a bunch which gives it a hesitant, almost awkward feel. But if you count 1/2/3/4, you'll note the one beat is always strong.

Loudon's "History" is pretty great: "Sometimes I Forget" has haunted me for many years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7iZv5Bdknk And bonus points to anyone who can tell me what time signature this is. - mjn

Actually (to be that obnoxious guy who just keeps popping up with pointless commentary), since you mentioned Loudon Wainwright III previously, one of his best albums is called "History", and he released it three years before Michael Jackson. He brought this up to his agent: "Can't copyright a title!" (It was funny when he was relating the story, of course...)
