The count-in is quick when using "The Inner Light" by The Beatles. The song begins with a droning note. After about 2 seconds, a sitar plays 4 counts of music. Then, drums and other instruments join in. The DJ should count 5,6,7,8 over the 4 counts of sitar. The dancers start when the drums come in. There are rhythm breaks (where there is just the droning note) right before each vocal section. Keep dancing at the same speed during these breaks. The first vocal section starts as the second dance pattern starts. The second vocal section starts with count 21 of the fourth dance pattern. The music ends at about count 5 of the seventh pattern
