Random information on the term “Finger”:
Snapping (or clicking) one’s fingers is the act of creating a snapping or clicking sound with one’s fingers. Primarily this is done by building tension between the thumb and another (middle, index, or ring) finger and then moving the other finger forcefully downward, so it hits the palm of the same hand at a high speed.
A Georgia Institute of Technology study in 2021 analyzed finger snapping, and found that a given audible snap sound occurs in just seven milliseconds. For reference, the blink of an eye takes place in 150 milliseconds.
In Ancient Greece, snapping of fingers was used by musicians and dancers as a way to keep the rhythm and it was known with the words “ἀποληκέω” (apolekeo), “ἀποκρότημα” (apokrotema) (from the verb “ἀποκροτέω” – apokroteo, “to snap the fingers”) and “ἐπίπταισμα” (epiptaisma). Finger snapping is still common in modern Greece.
Finger snapping may be used as a substitute for hand clapping. A possible reason is that snapping is less disruptive than clapping during speeches and announcements.” The practice of finger snapping is also popular within the poetry slam community, used by the audience as a spontaneous in-the-moment show of support or agreement with what is being shared by the poet. The practice has also infiltrated some conferences.
Random information on the term “NAME”:
“Name” is a song by American rock band Goo Goo Dolls. It was released in September 1995 as the third single from their fifth studio album, A Boy Named Goo (1995). “Name” became the band’s first major hit, topping both the US Modern Rock Tracks chart and the Album Rock Tracks chart. It also reached number five on the Billboard Hot 100. In Canada, “Name” peaked at number two on the RPM Top Singles chart and number one on the RPM Alternative 30.
Although Goo Goo Dolls were considered an alternative group prior to the single’s release, “Name” crossed over to pop and adult contemporary radio, greatly increasing the band’s fan base.[citation needed] The band re-recorded “Name” for their compilation album, Greatest Hits Volume One: The Singles; this version featured minimal arrangements and production.[citation needed]
The song’s unusual guitar tuning, D-A-E-A-E-E, is accomplished by replacing the B string with a high E string. In an interview with Guitar World Magazine, the singer and songwriter Johnny Rzeznik explained: “Both the top strings are high E strings. Whenever I tried tuning a regular B string up to E, it would pop. It was really tough on the tension. I’ve seen guys play ‘Name’ with regular tuning. It doesn’t sound right.” Rzeznik says that the song’s unusual composition happened “quite accidentally”. In an interview with KFOG, he explained: “It was weird, I was just sitting on my couch randomly twisting the tuning pegs, and I couldn’t figure out what notes the guitar was tuned to, so I had to grab my tuner to find out, and then I jotted them down on a post it. … I just sat there and let my fingers play the fretboard openly, and that is what became the progression of ‘Name’.”
