Music Theory Question

[pixie_paige]

Due to a random discussion of vocal warm-ups with Amy yesterday, my mind got stuck on trying to remember my ear training for intervals while laying awake last night with a headache. I had songs to help me recognize most of the intervals (i.e., Here Comes the Bride starts with a perfect fourth, Love Story starts with a minor sixth).

the one that came to mind for a minor seventh is the first two notes of
There's a time for us (west side story) There's (is the root) and a, is the minor 7th.

Ok so after doing this I looked it up on the web as well and found this nifty web site. (and it used the one I gave you too, which made me all happy cool!) anyway here is the whole list plus the web site link (if it all fits, I had to add the bolding by hand cuz it would be too big with the code from the page)
