Dan,
There must be something haywire about how the bpm are being counted. I'd be curious if you have this song (or ITry by Macy Gray or I Knew I Love You Before I Met You by Savage Garden, any will work). I clicked on my clock (stupid Windows, barf), enlarged it to digital, put on Represent & counted the SLOWS of how I dance tango (Slow,Slow,Quick,S,S,S,QQ,S, etc). I counted 23 beats in 15 sec or there abouts. I'll do the same with the songs you list & see what I come up with. Its not fast at all & its a perfect tempo for Night Club/California 2 Step as well. ALL that genre of alternative Tango music work, splendidly. More later, I'm going to go play in Salmon Street Springs fountain at Waterfront Park, its HOT here (well for us natives anyway).
More later....
Rick
