Yes most people are lazy in their definitions of music. A is not Ami but millions of guys play the Ami pentatonic scale and say its in the key of "A." Rock band members and self taught rock guitarists mostly all do this.
Guilty, as charged,,,but that's because I just didn't know any better, or really didn't even care at the time. I could kick myself now, but that was Life "Pre-Pebber." So the sooner you "catch on" to things like knowing the
PROPER KEY of a song, the better off you'll be!
By the way, Hannah Mackrell, WELCOME to the Forum!!! We are more than happy to have you and look forward to your valuable questions and input, as well. Remember, the only "silly," or "dumb" question is the one which is not asked! More often than not, somebody else has that exact same question but is afraid to post it, for fear of ridicule.
