SC Big 13 Chord Prog Plus few others

Question 1

Chord progression very common in pop, can be used as an intro before moving onto other chords, beatles twis and shout and la bamba - also works in classical context

Answer 1

I-IV-V

Question 2

A progression common in Pop and classical, sometimes the ii is subbed for the IV chord in this. Sounds quite like a turnaround. Possibly most popular chord progression around.

Answer 2

I-vi-ii-V

Question 3

Desperado by eagles, sounds quite revolving, lot of songs with slight twist on this progression. Would need to shoot onto other chords as too repeative.

Answer 3

I-I7-IV-iv

Question 4

Pop, Jazz and classical, bit of tension and resolution. Quite jazzy sounding to me. But also folky rock maybe?

Answer 4

I - #i dim.7 - ii - V7

Question 5

Similar to another pop, jazz classical progression but with a more dreamy feel, could be ballad

Answer 5

I-vi dim.7-ii7-V7

Question 6

Fun powerful anthemic sounding pop progression, ghost buster built around this. Sweet home alabama and fleetwood mac don’t stop. Variation adds a V chord after the first chord. Classical sound of the variation almost sounds irish or very familiar folk

Answer 6

I-(V) -bVII-IV

Question 7

Lenny Kravitz learn to fly, britny piece of me, can be rearranged and still sound good. Very common pop, minor tonality.

Answer 7

i - bIII - bVII - IV

Question 8

Sounds very pop but slow tempo pop, bit more cheery in classical setting, does start on tonic, used by beatles. Perfectly designed for pop and play about with timing and rhythm

Answer 8

vi7-II7-V7sus4-I

Question 9

Good repeating patter for pop and used in classical, use by beatles here there and everywhere, if you add a V on the end you have like a rolling stone by bob dylan

Answer 9

I-ii-iii-IV (V)

Question 10

Very poppy, really like this, hit the road jack by ray chasers, very upbeat but could sound melancholy at slower pace. Don’t let me be misunderstood animals. Sounds quite dramatic and epic in classical style. Andulsian cadence. Can swap last chord for minor v

Answer 10

i-VII-VI-V (v)

Question 11

Long progression, sounds somewhat romantic in classical context, sounds a bit quirky in pop context.

Answer 11

I-I+-vi-I7-IV-V-I

Question 12

Stairway to heaven, long and complicated progressions, sounds melancholy. Sounds a bit like 7 seconds to me as well. Can be used in classical.

vi-bVI+-I-vi/#IV-IVmaj7-V-I

Question 13

Long 8 chord progression. Lots of variations on this, billy joel piano man. Sounds like it suits slower tempo but experiment
