There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'


Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. Interesting.

I wonder if the guy who did this just didn't transpose everything? Or did he do it like this on purpose just to mess with our brains?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I listened to it, and the original version on YouTube, and I've been going back and forth between them, but I'm having a hard time telling that there is any difference.

Huh. That seems... weird to me.

Theres no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time we say goodbye

Okay, Losing My Religion wasn't bad, Nothing Else Matters started to freak me out, and by the time I got to Riders on the Storm, I hit JESUS CHRIST IT'S A LION GET IN THE CAR.

Yeah, I didn't get all the way through "Riders on the Storm."

One of the ways our brains enjoy music we've heard before is the anticipation we feel for the next few notes-when they arrive, it causes pleasure. These changed versions seem to cause discomfort when the anticipated note is not the same as the arriving note.

Doing this on a note that changes the chord from minor to major makes it much more annoying, I bet.
