Speak of the Devil Out of Key..?

Post by whibz »

Probably haven't been discussed before, but the first time i listened to Speak of the Devil, i noticed that there were some notes (guitar and piano) that were out of key. maybe there was a reason behind this, but it just sounds weird/bad to me. if you don't know what i'm talkign about, just listen at

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVzFM64_ ... re=related listen to the guitar at 0:38 to 0:43
and there are some piano notes out of key..



kind of a weird question, but im just curious

I'm not quite sure if you're critisizing the people that get mad when a question has been answered before, or at me. :confusion:

wow i never noticed that before, although i've always wondered if the off-key piano stuff at 1:20ish was on purpose. i think it was, but perhaps not the guitar.

Yeah it's on purpose, it's just to mix it up, always made it sound like some weird time warp for me lol idk. Definitely not an accident, like the guitar wasn't literally out of tune.

I think that the joke is pretty obvious, man, at least I get it !
This is Mark Allen Hoppus. He likes long walks on the beach. This, this is travis barker. He likes to be read poetry just before sunset. And me, I like to stick small pieces of furniture up my butt.

I spy on my dad while he is taking a shower just like everyone else
Mark: Sometimes when I talk in 3rd person i end up calling tom mark
Tom:Yea than he starts touching me and i think thats masturbation
Some people think were idiots or perverts dont argue were both.

This is probably one of my favorite songs
So talk shit, get hit.

I want to fly, Can you take me far away, Give me a star to reach for, Tell me what it takes, And I’ll go so high, I’ll go so high, My feet won’t touch the ground, its my wings, That pull the strings, I bought these dreams, That all fall down
