Kinda ironic then that the Beatles were never formally trained in Music Theory.

@@StratsRUs Facts. I feel like the Beatles are that one band with the most amount of intuitive 'feel' for music in general: from their tendency to experiment with different styles and flavours of music, to them incorporating non-conventional techniques of recording and producing music, everything rings in with this idea of them having a 'feel' for all of these concepts of Musical jargon without actually knowing a thing about them.

As soon as I read the title, I knew that Something and While My Guitar Gently Weeps would have been included. George Harrison truly was an amazing songwriter.

[@howie9751]

He was very good for a short period of time but no where near L & M. What songs of his would have been hits if he were not a Beatle/ex-Beatle? Few and same for Ringo. Not to take away from the really good songs he did do, but because they were Beatles/ex-Beatles they were given more credit than a lesser known artist would have if they did the same songs.

@@howie9751 John and Paul came from far more musical families than George. John and Paul picked up a lot from their parents. Ultimately your argument says that John's and Paul's music should be ignored or trashed because they were inspired and taught to some extent by their parents' example.

One of my favorite key changes by George is the one in My Sweet Lord, it's a perfect use of diminished and dominant chords to go one tone up in key, it's so subtle, I just love it !

[@mattd8325]

PIVOT!!! PIVAAT!!! But in all seriousness, George's song writing genius is massively underrated so it's fantastic to see some light being shed on this.

George is unique. He uses key changes as sort of a back door to other musical possibilities most others do not see. Thanks David-

[@shipsahoy1793]

@Roy Tranter You know the obsession with the Beatles, and the music theory behind their songs is amazing, but to tell you the truth, any good musical composer uses or has used those same tools and then some, and the Beatles are not unique in that regard; so any attempt to elevate them to some kind of godly status of being different than everybody else in their songwriting prowess is just not exactly true. They just happened to capture the most popularity for various reasons, another big topic of discussion. Just because one artist is less prolific than another doesn’t necessarily diminish their intellect, just their creative output.

[@firmanchristiansianturi4794]

@Roy Tranter Because you seem to ignore his solo career and his career with the Traveling Wilburys.

[@pzhikcloethaegeslikhrethyi4225]

I think the most brilliant part of George’s songwriting is how he can make the tense sound beautiful and vice versa. In WMGGW when he changes key from A minor to A major, it somehow sounds even more depressing even though Major is the “happy” key and minor is the “sad” key. And in Here comes the sun where plays the Dominant chord right before the lyrics, it’s such a happy sounding chord even though the tritone in a dominant chord should make it sound tense and uncomfortable.

[@DavidBennettPiano]

Thanks Stewart 😀

[@philippederome2434]

I agree. Interestingly the similarity between Something and While my Guitar Gently Weeps may explain me confusing the two songs in David's riddle of guess those 15 Beatles songs with samples of 2 seconds or less. One was Something and I knew it was a Harrison song but picked the wrong one. That other video was quite interesting in that the formal training of David showed how it helped him identify the songs (he's say here's an acoustic guitar, here's a synth, here's a signature drum flare and then that would help him narrow the selection of songs whereas I'd just go globally with guts, no analysis whatsoever).

[@zeezee9670]

"seems almost expected and self-evident" BAM. A big part of the beauty of the Beatles is in how much of their music feels like that. Just seems so natural and so right, so it's comfortable and likable right away. Excellent phrase, gyno.

[@DavidTurchickVEGAN]

In some songs George also plays his guitar solo in a new key, only to come back to the original key by the end of the solo. For instance, Ringo’s “Octopus’s Garden” and John’s “Free as a Bird.”

[@boriszakharin3189]

David - please do "You Never Give Me Your Money"! The key & mode changes are amazing. Overall motion is Am - C - A, but with many odd departures. It's a microcosm & setup for the Side 2 Medley (The Long One) whose motion is similar. With "The End," the medley seems to have resolved to a bluesy-mixolydian A - but then it gives a final, "surprise" resolution to C. Well worth analyzing!

Great video, David. I sometimes feel that George Harrison's songs were grossly underrated, but I think he was an extremely talented song writer. Wow, Musiversal sounds cool, had never heard of it before.

[@scottbrown635]

The medley from Abbey Road (same album as Something) also has a TON of similar modulations between C major, A minor, and A major. You Never Give Me Your Money - A minor (intro) - C major (out of college...) - C mixolydian (oh that magic feeling...) - A major (one sweet dream...) She Came In Through The Bathroom Window - A major - C major (very brief modulation in the chorus) Golden Slumbers - A minor (verse) - C major (chorus) Carry That Weight - C major - A minor (YNGMYM bridge) - C major The End - A major - C major (equal to the love...) Makes me wonder if they talked about this sort of thing on the album. These ones were all Paul songs, and he seemed to use it just like George did: modulating to A major to increase the energy and then back to C major / A minor to bring it back down (C for a peaceful feeling, A minor for a sadder one).

[@ianbartle456]

That is fascinating. I guess it contributes to the whole album sounding a little like a unified song cycle. HCTS is also in A - while John's big contributions, CT and IWY, are rooted on D modal - which is at least closely related to A. Octopus's Garden deviates to E but there again, that's going the other way from an A i.e a 4th down not a 4th up to the D songs. What would clash is a departure to Eb, Ab or Bb. But there isn't one. By all this logic the 'furthest out' one is Because which is based around C#m like its Beethoven inspiration.

Interesting and inspiring . It is very interesting when modulations that take some explanation actually allow the song to proceed very naturally and smoothly . George , not to diminish him at all , was most likely simply trying things and allowing his ear to confirm it . I think the Beatles who worked in a different era from this one actually gave themselves the time required to be musically creative .

Looking at his choosing something like "Isn't it a Pity?" & how beautiful his essentially full-track length transitional chord sequence-- the dynamics take over & you begin to recognize where the artist found his magical places in the art they were making.. Lolol, i guess the mark of the truly gifted and memorable is their ability to have an Artistic Quirk where ppl who were listening closely knew the sounds--they could see it coming & the music retained the voice of GH but still sounding fresh & unique as art..
