You know, some songs can withstand the key change, and some just don't sound right. A different key just doesn't work for some songs.
Funny thing? I've done Don't Stop and GYOW both in "D", for years. And I LOVE it, that they've finally dropped both to D(well, the last time I heard GYOW, Lindsey was doing it in D, and when we got to hear Christine in Hawaii, they were doing Don't Stop in D).
But for instance, I've tried dropping Journey's "Don't Stop Believing"(because who the hell can sing the high notes in E!?), and it just doesn't work. The minute you drop that piano part in key, it just SUCKS. It loses EVERYTHING, when you drop it from E.
But Don't Stop and GYOW still work pretty well in D. It just depends on the song, IMO.
