Its actually pretty interesting to me that the crowd could sing together as well as they did
My advice to everyone else on this server:
I encourage you all to make something of your lives. I implore you not to waste your "glory days" in front of a computer screen like I did. Go out into the world, but do not live like everyone else. Strive to stand above and bring the others up with your knowledge and hard work.-Kovos Datch

Almost everybody on the planet is able to appreciate and sing in the pentatonic scale, that's the amazing thing about it. Only a tiny percentage of humans are tone-deaf, and can't.

This scale sounds good to everyone, and there's instruments that are setup to only play pentatonic notes, so you can be a complete newb and make it sound good. The Strumstick is one of them.

Reminds me how nearly every pop song was written in four chords only: I V vi IV (E, B, C#m and A in most keys, G, D, Em and C in others.)

Check this video out:

Lol it's actually fucking nuts how many god damn pop songs are in those basic 4 chords.

Fuck you Phil Spector, I wish you never changed the music industry for the worse. I'm glad you're dead. You murderer of both people and our music.
