Uh, yeah, Steve, now I realize it was probably just one of the guitar strings out of tune (G, I think), and only by 2-3 cents. Yeah, that's it. No big deal. It happens to all of us.
Yes, I admit I got confused by the audio player on the side. OK, I'll say if for you: obviously, I get easily confused.
You know what? Suddenly I remembered... it was one of your co-writers that was out of tune! Yeah, that's it! If I was you, I would find out which one it was (by using torture) and then give him a lower percentage of the massive songwriting royalties (that are at this very moment flowing like a mighty river through the financial system, on their way to your door.)
But you know what the funny part is? After a line or two, I stopped noticing the slight tuning issue totally, and just started digging the song. Hmmm, this out-of-tune thing could revolutionize the music industry. This could be big! Really big! Or not.
Anyways, now I HATE your soon-to-be-a-beloved-Christmas-classic song. "Why????" you ask, "For Gawd's sake, why?????". Because it's been stuck in my head all day long (and most of the night)!!! Get out! Get out! There's not enough room for you in here! I'm only a zombie! Oops, didn't mean for that to slip out. It's just between us, OK, Steve? Just between two old friends, eh? (Yes, I'm Canadian) Heh, heh. Gotta go now. I shouldn't post things late at night. I blame your song - it's driven me crazy. Please burn this post after you've read it (eh?) Gotta go now.
