    An arguement thats escalated between friends:

    The phrase "Play it by ear"

    Thats what i think it is, my friends think its "Play it by year". Which is right!!! We are pretty much 50:50 on this.


    edit: I'm right!

    "No entry found for play it by year.
    Did you mean play it by ear?

    Suggestions:
    play it by ear

    No entry was found in the thesaurus. Would you like to search the Web for play it by year?"

    From thesaurus.com

    Do you know what the expression means? It's a musical term meaning to learn a piece by listening to it as opposed to reading the notes.
