I used to do that too! I have notebooks filled with note names from the songs from movies! I think it really helped with my ear training classes that I'm taking now :)

I played Clarinet and French horn in middle school band, my neighbor taught me flute when I was little, And I'm barely passable at guitar. I want to play bass, and aparently knowing any kind of guitar means you already do.......I'm best at Clarinet, though.

Hey Keds. The only reason I played Clarinet and French horn is because the flute section was full. They started me on horn 'cause I was in TAG and aparently only smart people can play French horn..or some such bull. When I quit that after a few months they bumped me to "the next best thing" which I spent the next four years on.

Haha! I love how they don't let certain kids play some musical instruments! Anyone can play anything they want! I started on flute because everyone wanted to play the saxophone because their parents thought it was so cool! I would have loved to play the french horn, and I'm sure I could have learned in high school since we had like 14 school instruments. I totally regret it, but hopefully next year, I'll get to try it in my brass methods class :)

I hope you do, it's a really complicated instrument, even though I didn't like it doesn't mean it didn't sound good.

Totally! You should try an instrument! You obviously have some musical aptitude :)

Huh, maybe I should. :] I was never really musically inclined though. (I'm not even sure if I'm using the word inclined in the right context.) I'm a jazz dancer though, so maybe I'm good with the whole rhythm thing....I'm pretty much just talking to myself here. ha. :P

If you have rhythm, try percussion or brass! It's got a lot of cool rhythm stuff!
