    Minor key songs in a major key?  As in, the original was in a minor key and it was arranged in a major key?
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Yeah. Somehow with some software or something. Not sure how.

    Some good explanations given  here with good examples of songs changed from major to minor and visa versa:
