Oh yes!

True facts!

Indeed! Thanks!

indeed!

Thank you!

I've received several requests for Todd Rundgren songs. I've attempted to create videos for these songs but haven't been able to complete them for several reasons: 1. The chord progressions are hard to fit into short form videos without compromising their integrity. 2. Without the melody and lyrics, Todd Rundgren's chord progressions alone don't do justice to his tunes-there's a lot of musical meaning carried in the melody itself, or in the interplay between the chords and the melody. 3. The rhythm section (which I often use to support the chords) feels quite stale and static without the top melody (this may be just my personal opinion, but it's what I experienced while attempting to work on his tunes) 4. The ROI on his music is quite low, so the videos won't get many views-I need to find a way to fit these videos into my content strategy. I still have Todd Rundgren songs on my to-do list, but I'm struggling to find a way to present them that truly honors this amazing artist's work.

Thank you!

At 0:26 kzbin.infoivfgN27qENc, there are three identical chords in a row, with the fourth chord being the same but voiced differently. I wouldn't call it generic-to my ears, the chord progression is pretty unique. I only know one other song that uses such a progression: kzbin.infoy-3i72lLuT8. "Sweet Freedom" has much more to offer-it has more chords than all the pop songs combined from 2000-2024, thanks to Rod Temperton. I love how "These Walls" builds upon this classic, especially how the arrival of Db/F feels so powerful at the ending. I heard Terrace Martin played on the Kendrick Lamar record, though I might be mistaken.

Well spotted! Those are auto-captions from the ChordieApp. Since the app doesn't the app does not know there's the minor thirds will appear briefly later, it labels the chords as sus4. I agree that Bbmin11 and Ebmin11 are more accurate in this case, but I'm too lazy to write the captions manually!

Great suggestion! I'll try to do it asap!

Thank you!

Wow, thank you very much for the insight, I didn't know this!

I've tried to transcribe exactly what I hear on the record as accurately as possible. There might be some mistakes, and I'd love to see your interpretation of it. Any suggestions that could help me get closer to the original voicings would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks 🔥

Absolutely phenomenal album!

Thanks 🤗

Many thanks!

Thank you!

RIP!

Yes! It's on the list! Do you want me to transcribe whole album 😅 ?

No only the song giantis

I just want to hear how it sound when you play the beginning of the song giantis

Yes, the vibe is quite similar kzbin.infoRJyvObNX7Ds

Thanks!

Yes!

Great suggestion! I've added it to my to-do list. It'll take some time before I get to it, as I have many requests to handle!

Thank you!

Learn it!

@ I’ve been wanting to for a long time, but I’ve grown older. However, your videos are inspiring as they are wonderful in highlighting such melodic chords. I’m going to search for table-top key board and go for it, but I’ll use your videos as a springboard. 🎶🎹🖤

wow!

Yes! This is C maj indeed!

Thanks!

The video caused the issue 🤣

Great suggestion! tanks for included link! I've added it to my to-do list. It'll take some time before I get to it, as I have many requests to handle!

Take it easy Igor!

Usually there are 1, 2, or 3 notes in the left hand, with the remaining notes played in the right hand

Exactly!

Exactly!

I thought I made the breakdown already... What exactly would you like to know about this chord progression?

I believe it's due to the timeless message in the title and the incredibly creative video with its high meme potential that captured people's imagination. Also, as a musician, I must say the music itself is excellent.

Thanks!
