Thanks for the comment! I will add that to my to-do list, it might be a while I have a lot to get through!

The lower chord progression at 7:48 is exactly the progression of Something - The Beatles

easy way to find the V7 of a target chord? build a V7 chord of the target chords chordal 5th. G7 is the V of cm,CMaj (C-Eb/E-"G").... B7 is the V of em/EMaj (E-G/G#-"B"), etc.

Is it just me or in minor keys, secondary dominants can kinda resolve to the I chord too? For example, in D minor: if on guitar I'll play V/v E7 voiced as x7675x and next D minor voiced as x5774x. It feels like it kinda resolves (?). I like to end longer phrases like that when improvising chord progressions

[@WriteASong]

Interesting, maybe it's the nature of the voicings that creates the effect.

[@draghicesco5880]

If you take this formula of using 5 of 5 as an intermediary tonic and applying it to a 4 of 4, can you say that it will become a secondary subdominant? Ex in C Major, F is the 4th, count up a 4th, we get to Bb, which is a bVII. The same applies to a secondary mediant (3 of 3 is Ab), it becomes a bVI. Is this a thing, does it apply to others, or it's just for 5ths?

[@WriteASong]

Yes, it is a thing! You can do this with any chord in a key, but the most common ones are dominants and subdominants.
