black is beautiful

Something I hadn't noticed before. You can play the melody of the entire tune 'Amazing Grace' using only the five black keys on a piano.

:afro:

 

Good for you, Black looks Kool too

 

You can play any melody that uses the pentatonic scale on the black keys.

 

I like playing Greensleeves, but that requires white keys. I think I have race issues.

 

I don't see black or white. I play Amazing Grace on my bagpipes.

 

I love both the white and the black keys. But I mostly only like the black keys when I am playing flats instead of sharps... is that a problem?

 

i mostly just like the black keys when i'm already a little drunk. the song they had on GTA4 was pretty catchy though.

 

Yes, the Black Keys are good when drunk. That's the only time I find them tolerable.

 

Is that before or after you have had a feed of haggis

 

I saw 'The Black Keys' open for Beck way back when and I liked them.

 

Yes, Antithesis. We've heard that you play in five flats and get kicked out of every one of them.
