    Listen to The Everly Brothers- "All I Have To Do Is Dream". It's the same structure and was very common back then. It was know to musicians as a C Am F G song.

    I would have never said this song is in 4/4, I would say it’s 6/8... don’t know if that’s correct but it’s how I feel it...

      You probably get this feeling because of the triads in the instrumental section. They are playing three notes within every count in a 4/4 metre.

    I love the tiny piano, but when we are trying to hear how chord progressions flow it isn't the best option

      yeh I'd rather he did it on a full size piano and have the camera switch to his hands

    could you do a video on how Rex Orange County writes a melody? i think he makes a lot of interesting melodic and harmonic choices.

    I've gotta disagree with you about the key change. Having played a lot of this kind of music in the early 60s what you call a key change is what I recognize as a standard bridge (or middle 8 in Beatles parlance) for this type of music. The bridge is basically B flat, F, B flat, G7, C7 with the G7, C7 being the turn around back to the verse. All in the key of F.
    Today's songs are written with all of the parts (verse, pre chorus, chorus and bridge) basically having the same chord pattern. A good example is One Republic's "Chasing Stars".
    Songs were written before 1990 were blues influenced whereas song written after 1990 are hip hop influenced.

    Ah. They're from my hometown so, every time I hear this song I think of home!

    Funny you mention the arrangement as I saw a barbershop quartet sing this song and IMO do it more justice than the original rendition.

    I’m searching through all of your videos for song structure. I need help with that. I’m posting a song I started but stuck with the structure so its just a chorus and vers and that’s it for now : /

    I dig music like this, but imho if we’re talking of that style, The Beach Boys’ “Warmth of the sun” is much better in terms of songwriting and arrangement (Brian Wilson of course was heavily influenced by Doowop). Heavy Kitsch, of course, but hey, why not.

    • @leonardomapache

      Because it's a series. He's tackling Rolling Stones 100 best songs in order. The songs are already chosen but he'll get to the Beach Boys eventually. Don't worry.
      In any case, analysing an original 1950s' doo-wop song is more about authenticity than the complexity of the arrengement.

    Man, you should look it up a INDIE singer called gretta ray and make a deep analysis At her song "Drive" so many notes and still amazing to hear, want YOUR answer

  • @arneboker6385
    @arneboker6385 4 роки тому

    It's fascinating how long you can talk about the chords in the verse just to come to the conclusion "this is pretty much by the books". Very interesting how much content and analysis you can get out of these well-executed standard techniques.
    I got confused when you criticized their voicings in the later parts though. In comparison to the written notes I hear the fourth voice an octave higher and the second an octave lower, which brings all three voices as close to each other as they can be. What produces the disconnect is rather (to my ears) the enormous dominance of the fourth voice. It sounds like the singer stood right by the microphone and the other two somewhere in the next room. I guess if they sang this live and unplugged, the harmonies would be completely fine. At least that's what I am hearing. Are my ears that far off?

    It breaks the avoid note rule

      It does, but it resolves it beautifully, so in this case I'm ok with it!
