    This video is full of amazing and crucial information for songwriters. I’ve been consuming the information just a few segments per day, for the past couple of days, so that I can practice with the things that I learn and commit the theory to my understanding of music as thoroughly as possible. My goal right now is to become fluent enough in this stuff to be able to write songs more quickly than I have in the past. I don’t think this video is intended to be watched all in one go. I recommend taking your time with this one. The knowledge is very valuable!

    Man, I REALLY appreciate and love your videos, one small remark, though: since I am very concentrated on the sounds you produce (that is the scope of those videos, right?) when you say sikth instead of sixth, I feel like a sharp piece of ice just pierced my ear, each time. Since I am not a native english speaker, I might be wrong, but to me, it sounds like you're swallowing the "s" before the "th" to emphasize the "h" which sounds extremely annoying to my ears. That's why I wanted to humbly ask viewers of the channel (including yourself) to clarify. As far as I can remember, everyone always said: s-i-k-s-t(h), not s-i-k-th, usually pronouncing the "th" more like a standard "t." Or am I missing something? :)
    Keep up the good work, you've made a ton of difference to my songwriting!

      Sorry about the sixth pain. This is just the way I say the word. I'm not sure if it's a regional thing in the UK or just me being lazy with my pronunciation.
