Let It Be came out in 1970 :) The chord progression is common yes. But that doesn’t mean it’s bad. It’s well know from Pachabels Canon in D (but even then other classical composers used it). That’s just the nature of music and music theory. Songs generally follow a pattern including I-IV-V as that’s what sounds most pleasing in general (chord tension and resolution) The 12 bar blues famously uses a I-IV-I-V progression. It’s just common because it’s what works musically. That’s also why you can’t copy-write a chord progression. People enjoy the sound, and that’s the most important part of the music. I get your preference for older music! That’s fine! But I think you’ll find music from any era is actually pretty similar when you look at it! :)
Not to be _that_ guy, but doesn't this just show that all these songs are in the same major key? Of course all songs in that key center will fit the major chords of that key...
To be fair... most these songs created with a guitar, and there's only like 16 real chords and about 8 that are fluent together. We've all been listening to a song and thought ay that sounds similar
This is why modern music sucks. That isn't even a subjective statement. In the last 5 decades, on average, the songs have less notes overall, less time changes, less time signatures being used, the songs are over a minute shorter each on average, and on and on. Basically, the music, has less music than ever. Go listen to the hits from before record companies turned music into a PR firm. They were better. The musicians were better, and the music was much more complicated. But, you don't need a song to be complicated to be good! Actually, you do. Go play one note over and over. It adds depth to the music. But, the modern artists can't do that, because they're not as talented, as the main focus now is their look, and not the music. Look at people like Lauren Hill. Go watch a live show of her "playing" guitar. The band, who barely gets paid to play the music, is trying to tell her she's in the wrong key. But, she doesn't know how to adjust key on guitar. That's akin to not even having spent a full year practicing. The part that really got me with that video, is she only was playing like 2-3 chords. That is embarrassingly bad. Same with Pink. She can't play an instrument to save her life. Most don't write their own music and are simply performers, not musicians. Just like how Lauren Hill was sued for stealing music. Then, paid a PR firm to squash the story.
I do this with my musician friends when goofing off...because it's TRUE about crap plastic pop🤔 Anything I have written is my effort to avoid it. Check out Steve "Stevie T" Terreberry's "How To Write A Country Song"🤣 That, too🤔
Wow, what a completely original and amazing way to shamelessly rip off Rob Paravonian... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JdxkVQy7QLM.html
Do you know what a rip-off is? They didn’t rip-off anything or even redo that guys bit because he didn’t invent the concept of songs sharing the same chord progression
