How to fake piano skills - without knowing how to play
For those musically inclined, sticking to the black keys only produces a pentatonic scale.

Herman Cain goes out in style (quotes pokemon again)
Nope, the melody is septatonic (<--music joke) constructed of simple root position triads (C-Am-G-C-B°-Am-G) using every pitch class in C major. >> ^lampishthing:
Whoa, just realized that's a pentatonic riff. Damn those things are everywhere. #TheBlackKeys

Power of Pentatonic Scale - Demonstration by Bobby McFerrin
>> ^marinara:
this video is 2 minutes shorter how is this a dupe?
It's 32 seconds shorter & the entire video is contained within it, I think that qualifies.

Voice Capo- The Chord Forming Capo
I feel like this should be a point/counterpoint, so I'll argue that this is an abomination.
If you want to use alternate tunings, tune your guitar alternatively. There is much more to alternate tunings than being able to play a pleasant chord without your left hand. If you're learning an alt-tuned song, you're probably going to run into issues playing it if you insist on leaving your guitar EADGBE, like, for example, I don't know, BEING ABLE TO PLAY OTHER CHORDS. Are you kidding me? Congratulations on having an open C chord, now play a G. Oh, you can't because you don't have access to the bottom four frets. This is an absurd invention.
And beyond learning other songs, for creating, it encourages stagnation, both musically in the song you're writing and in your development as a player and musician. One, as I mentioned, you're gonna have a hell of a time switching chords, which will be fine for, oh, about as long as this guy played in one stretch. Then your harmony needs to move somewhere, but you're up shit's creek. Secondly, alternate tunings are fun precisely because they challenge your mind. Where do you fret a C on the 3rd string when you're in open Dm? Figure it out! As you play more, you get a firmer grasp not just of the guitar, but of musical theory. You can learn a pentatonic scale and play for days, but by moving those notes from their normal position on the fretboard, you get your mind out of muscle memory playing and into a more active state.
In conclusion, this is not useful for learning other alt-tuned songs, and it encourages stagnation as a player. That, my friend, is an abomination.>> ^KnivesOut:
I don't think it's an abomination. I like it. It's really just a quick way to use a non-standard tuning, which guitarists have been doing for decades.
Men at Work accused of plagiarism over 'Down Under'
Absolute nonsense. The hook has a measure of that pentatonic children song and remotely so. Wrong. Plain wrong.
Amazing Grace on the "Slave Scale"

Instructional Video - BSG All Along The Watchtower on Piano
This is modal, but it's dorian, not phrygian. Hate to demystify this, but it's just a combination of the oft-used chord progression from Jimi Hendrix's Along the Watchtower with some noodling in a pentatonic gamalon scale (1,3,4,5,7). McCreary does a nice job with this show, but most of the iconic themes (The main title, the tribal drumming, the pulsing synth cylon theme, etc.) were actually created by composer Richard Gibbs in the mini-series. Bear mainly added the ethnic Irish, (LOTR/Titanic sounding stuff )and middle eastern (Hanz Zimmery dudek and vocal stuff) stuff, as well as riffing off the miniseries material.

"South Side of the Sky" Yes
I understood the pentatonic, blues scales of Clapton, Hendrix, etc. The first time I heard Yes and Steve Howe's guitar work, I said, "What in the heck was that?" When I studied it further, I realized how wonderfully unique his style is. And Wakeman, what do you have to say about that guy?
