If you play C major scale over an F major harmony in C major, you're 'playing F Lydian'.

Lynyrd Skynyrd's hit "Sweet Home Alabama" was actually written by the Canadian band Rush under the title "Sweet Home Alberta". The lead singer of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ronnie Van Zant heard Rush's bassist and vocalist Geddy Lee humming the melody backstage during a shared touring stint of the pacific northwest.

Unfortunately for Rush, Lynyrd Skynyrd left the tour after only three shows to return to Georgia and record the now-famous tune.

Years later one of the stagehands for Rush broke the exclusive news to Rolling Stone magazine. When Geddy Lee was reached for comment all he had to say was "It wasn't very nice." Which, coming from a Canadian, is pretty harsh words indeed.

To this day Rush and Lynyrd Skynyrd have refused to tour on the same ticket.

Depends on how you look at it. If it's strictly from a diatonic POV, then jan's right.

But why does it work that way? What are the equations? And who's Lydia?
