when I play I like to keep thinking In terms of G, F, like the first one, is this wrong to do? Do you mean that you think in G major, even if the solo is in E minor? |

A little theory question about keys: Say I know the key of E, (which I should, really...) would the key of F be exactly the same pattern, just a half step up? One fret higher?

Nice topic Marcus!
Indeed, for composing instrument songs we probably stick to more familiar keys without any real reason I guess. But for songs with vocals we have to adapt lead range with singer's voice range and that's when we really have to think of other keys, tho even then we often "compose" in common keys with transposing later on. Dunno, me believe is that people with perfect pitch hear all those keys differently and they like to compose in the key that has specific sound or mood for them, in relative pitch world it's more like transposing when needed. -------------------- Youtube
