| LuminousFlux - 2005-11-25 | | Those are pretty good tabs, but you dont really need to tune it down to Db. You can still use standard tuning for the most part. I think it's in the key of F# for standard tuning. So, for a Db tuning, this tab is really easy as you dont have to move around your hands as much as standard tuning. But still, standard tuning reduces the annoyance of having to tune down. |
| MOMOluvsU - 2005-12-10 | | I'm sorry to be a pest but Apethetic Way To Be is not on the Mmhmm CD. It is on their new release called Apethetic. Like I said, sorry to be meticulous about that. |
| gotexans289 - 2005-12-31 | | This song was on the vinyl copy of this cd. |
| neonboy - 2006-02-08 | | will he or she tabbed it before the cd came out so stop dogin him or her. |
| godsmusicgeek - 2011-04-22 | | im totally agreeing w/ neonboy leaving them alone |
