   Well, think of tapping your fingers together to a beat with a certain   
   bps while you are getting closer and closer to a hyper large source of   
   gravity... Your beat would still be the same, but to hypothetical   
   "outside observers" your (finger taps) would be getting slower and   
   slower? Even though your time is still playing the beat?
