Yesssss the modulation is soooo satisfying😍 @henrybernstein.bsky.social @quinnhasadhd.bsky.social

It breaks the I V vi IV pattern chromatically by going into G sharp Maj for a sec, which is right in between V and vi, but the tonic C is never left! kinda breaks & follows the rule at the same time

Ah that's perfect. She modulates there but it's not a key change. She's so brilliant. And YOU are brilliant for explaining it so simply!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Well then as long as I have your attention maybe you can help me figure out what's happening in the 2nd ver of Wi$h Li$t - she goes to a G#maj7 which is like a step & 1/2 up (right?) From the F as opposed to going to the C. It has the effect of a key change! What is going on?

[Verse 1]
C
They want that yacht life, under chopper
blades
Am7
They want those
bright lights and
Balenci' shades
F
And a fat ass with a baby face
They want it all
C
They want that complex female character
Am7
They want that critical smash Palme
d'Or
F
And an Oscar on their bathroom floor
They want it all

[Verse 2]
They want that freedom, living off the
grid
Am7
They want those
three dogs that they
call their kids
F
And that good surf, no hypocrites
They want
it all
G#maj7
They want a contract with Real Madrid
Gm7
They want that spring break that was
fuckin' lit
C
And then that video taken off the
internet

This is the music nerd shit I love. There are a lot of examples of dissonance on this album. Janis brilliantly breaks down probably the best example of it.
