Seasons don't fear the reaper...
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are
Come on baby, don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your maaaaannnnnnn...

La La La La La
La La La La La

:)

5. I just learned how to play the riff last winter.
I never really tried before, even though it's one of my favorite riffs.

7. Do You Know The One That Starts The Solo Break?
It's pretty easy too. Now, the solo, which is one of the few i've ever learned note for note, is a little more difficult, but it's fun to play. That opening tremolo thing, and then it's just goes through so many little mini-melodies. Like i said, i don't learn solos note for note, very often, but that one, i did.

20. There Ya Go
If you hear it in your head, it'll be easy to figure it out. I figured out all but one phrase in the solo from memory. If i decide to learn something note for note, i get as much as i can without listening to it. Then just do the repair work once i have it down.

I think it's more fun that way.

14. True, but
most people think of this song when hearing the name of the band, which is too bad.

19. Outstanding choice, and
they have so many other similar tunes, that "DFTR" is more of a departure from their style than it is consistent with it.

Sort of like "Boom Boom" with Pat Travers.

What massively underlooked movie by a world-famous director does that song close?

11. My friend Shannon got the lyrics wrong
Edited on Fri May-07-04 01:47 PM by redqueen
She thought it was 'don't fear the reefer'

She was really disappointed when I clued her in on the real lyrics. :)
