This Shocked Me.

This shocked me.

As a singer and musician who has a masters degree, I was shocked by this! I don’t think that many of you fully grasp what V was talking about with the chickens at the end of the the Run Ep. 29-Behind the Scenes.

He’s speaking about where on the piano… what NOTE the chickens are hitting when they cry!  Just by listening, he’s guessing what notes their hitting.

AND HE GETS IT RIGHT!

He’s talking about solfege… like in the song from Sound of Music: Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti Do, singing a scale.  Middle C on the piano is C4, the fourth octave.  So when he says the 6th Octave, that means 2 Octaves above the fourth which would be High C.  If he’s starting on C being Do… then 6th Octave Mi would be a high E… WHICH WHEN I CHECKED IS ACTUALLY WHAT SOME OF THE HIGHER NOTES WERE THAT THE CHICKENS WERE CRYING!  Fifth Octave Sol would be a G sitting at the top of the staff in Trebel Clef (if going by this same thinking) and is only slightly lower than some of the lower pitches the chickens were crying.

Do you realize how good of an ear you have to have to guess that!?  Do you know that there are college music students who can’t figure out what the pitch is just by listening?  DO YOUR REALIZE HOW FRICKIN SMART THIS BOY IT!?!?!?!  TO BE GUESSING THE NOTES THE CHICKENS ARE SINGING!??!!
