Talk:C Is For Conifers

I have a suspicion that, throughout Here Come The ABCs, TMBG deliberately avoided doing anything that might suggest a pun on the musical alphabet (the letters used to name notes from A to G).

This song provides the strongest evidence that the avoidance could be intentional. C major, which you get by playing the white keys of a piano, is such a common and popular key that nobody would have found the use of it here a cutesy device. But the song is actually in F sharp major, an unusual key for a rock song that is also the furthest possible key from C going both by pitch and by the circle of fifths.

Is it just me, or does Flans say "Larch" just like the sketch from Monty Python's Flying Circus? --MisterMe 16:46, 21 February 2012 (EST)

Maybe it is just me. Here is a link that might bolster my case. --MisterMe 08:12, 20 February 2013 (EST)
