Transcribing: - Anyone know Dido's Thank You Rhythm?

[JohnR]

The conga part on Dido's hit "Thank You" sounds great, and I have been trying to play it but cannot quite figure it out. It sounds like a Tumbao type variation, but can't seem to get it right.

Can someone help?

Thanks for the "Thank You" help.
:p

It isn't tumbao... the time signature changes when the other instruments come in.

I'm still trying to figure it the intro myself, but once the drums come in they drown out the congas anyway
