elliott smith minor 3rd

[rstar]

Between the Bars by Elliott Smith
*drink up* baby, stay up all night

* * = m3

[Niclas]

Isn't it more like:

"Drink up" = Unison
"Baby" = Major 2nd

Like it is written in this score: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJheL-N3H7Q

I could be wrong though

hi niclas
glad to see that you check
but im afraid not, that score melody is terribly inaccurate. both the elliott smith songbook and my ears agree its a minor third
drink up = minor 3rd down
ba-by = major 2nd up
most of the other high rated sheet music from online also say minor third.
if youd like ill jpeg you a copy of the sheet music, also if youd like to give it a listen

Thanks for this one, I love the song and the interval stays in the head

Nice and tricky one!

Here it goes another track of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5g-91mwiNs (=10s)

Try to listen without the score, what do you think?! I'm sure there are people who can listen a 3rd minor descending and others who can listen a 2nd major descending in "Drink up"
