Was pleasantly surprised to hear a sample from a Green Day song

Thank you for reminding me that this is how you look at chord progresions. My music teacher is so stupid she made me forget

[javin]

Most of blink-182 songs use that same progression, for example Dammit which is one of my favorite!

Im really trying to learn more music theory and ive been watching a ton of your shorts. Definitely thinking about 52 week Guitar Player.

Good video, and it has a focus on song writing, that’s what someone who wants to be a musician strives for, to write their own music. I’d like to see more videos like this, it’s very enlightening and useful. 👍

[adriancoppin]

As soon as I heard the first 2 chords I screamed “SINCE YOU BEEN GONE”

Day 5 of me asking you what a minor bend is like in the guitar solo of Peace of Mind my Boston

[liamgauthier]

I was thinking instantly of WHAT'S MY AGE AGAIN😂

[dylans_omens]

Brilliantly exemplified by The Axis Of Awesome’s ‘Four Chords.’

Across generations, it’s 1 6 4 5. Go back to the 50s and walk it forward. It’s crazy!

The Oldest Malcom in the middle brother is a really good guitar player too, I never knew.

[jimmybean]

My first thought when hearing it was the theme to the office

[davineuskens]

I wrote about 5 songs that use this chord progression

[Not_Lewis]

Its popular because its "circular".

The home chord the Root, provides a basic starting point. Then the 5th, or dominant, provides the most natural jumping point. The minor 6th, also the natural minor of the same key, provide natural tension from the major and dominant chords. Then the major 4th, from the 6th provides the tonal direction which sends us back to home. Its the most basic cookie cutter progression that our ears just love the most.
