    Yes, but microtones are primarily eastern. This is western music based off of the diatonic system and the cycle of fifths. All of this theory is based around the idea of there being 12 notes.

    There are some ideas that are bound to crop up once or twice.

    I just read in the National Enquirer that all Satriani songs are actually Carpenters songs played backwards, all except for that one Air Supply song.

    There is definitely some resemblance between Satch's song and Los Enanitos Verdes' (The Green Dwarves) song...

    Please tell me they copied from someone else as well. It would be great if this song gets tracked back to some old blues song from the 20's.
