@ladymopar12j no dude. Axel F was created by Harold Faltermayer. His orginal version of this was in f#. But in "Beverly Hills Cop" it was played in D. And most people now learn it in F simply because its easier to learn. The "F" in "Axel F" does not symbolize the key the song is in, but the character Eddie Murphey played as in Beverly Hills cop. (Axel Foley)
@VirtuaTV No. -facepalm- Common misconseption. Axel F does not refer to the scale it is in, it refers to Eddie Murphies character "Axel Foley" from "The beverly hills cop". Harold Faltermayer published this piece in f#. Even tho in the movie it was played in d. F is not correct.
@Magicmaker1234 Yet the released recording is in F. I didn't mention the title, although if it was named soley after the character, it would be called Axel Foley, not Axel F. Seriously, though. If you actually listen to the track, it's in F. Surely, you can hear it.
@ladymopar12j how many times do i have to tell you that the version we've all listened to is in F? BUT, the original (the version that wasnt on an album) was in F#. Therefor, the ORIGINAL is F#, the released version is F.
@ladymopar12j are you listening to me? im sorry man, but you can look it up. He developed it in F#. just its easier to play in F, and sounds almost exactly like the original.
@ladymopar12j im honestly tired of repeating myself. Ive heard the original, not the version everyone is accustom to now. And it's in F#. but im sick of this, so im gonna have to end it here. have a wonderful day.
