Discovering the Key of “Plantes” with 彩雲のの
You know, it’s funny how the universe works sometimes. Just the other day, I was scrolling through some music videos, and I stumbled upon 彩雲のの’s cover of “Plantes.”
I’ve always been a sucker for covers because they often bring a fresh perspective to a song you thought you knew inside out. So, I watched her video and couldn’t help but appreciate her unique vibe. It reminded me of my childhood days in Osaka when I would sit with my friends, laughing at the latest manzai performances while munching on snacks—probably having too many, and then regretting it later! That youthful energy is something I try to carry into my own parenting. I mean, who doesn’t want to giggle with their kid over silly songs and funny stories? Anyway, back to the song! I noticed a comment mentioning that 彩雲のの’s cover is in E♭ major, which is actually a step down from the original. It’s fascinating how different keys can change the mood of a song entirely. I mean, what’s that saying? “A change is as good as a holiday?” Or something like that! I remember when I tried singing a song in a different key once. Let’s just say, my voice was so high that I felt like a cartoon character! Those moments are always a mix of laughter and slight embarrassment, but they make for some of the best memories. Seeing that comment about the cover being a minus 8 from the original key got me thinking about how music really connects us all, no matter where we are in the world. It’s like a universal language. I’d love to hear if any of you have tried your hand at singing a cover! Did you stick to the original key, or did you go rogue like I did? So, if you have any funny stories about your musical adventures or tips on how to tackle different keys, drop them in the comments! I’m all ears and can’t wait to share a laugh with you!
