I want to share a little incident that has baffled me for a while now, although I never quite gave it much attention, but still want to see what people think. 

I want to share a tune that I recorded in September 2006. I had just started learning Guitar on my own and at that time I only knew how to play couple chords and had merely been playing for 2-3 months. This was 2 years before I even knew who Anna Singt was. For those who don't know - Anna Singt is an Acoustic German band started by Anna Ratsch-Heitmann. 

I downloaded her song in May 2008, which was originally released in 2002. Now what's interesting is that I did not even hear her song until 2008. AND THAT is what has baffled me for a long time and I have no answers for it. 
Could it be a pure co-incidence..that I recorded a similar tune or atleast the intro?

Here is the 60 second piece that I recorded while practising D minor chord in Sept. 2006




Here is the beginning of Anna's Song "Stay on your own" with uncanny resemblance to my piece. (AGAIN, I had never heard this song before 2008)

May be it's true that D minor is the saddest chord and we both perceived it independently :-)
