Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
This is absolutely fascinating! I took a music theory course in high school and I love this kind of deep analysis. I also really love the editing touches and colors in this video. I'll definitely be exploring more videos from him. Thank you for posting this!
This is great
I KNEW he was going to say The Weekend. Somehow my subconciousness connected the dots.
Wow can this man get out of my head???? I’ve literally been noticing/“saying”this for years... but I don’t have any close theory friends so I’ve just been keeping it to myself and then this guy comes along and puts literally everything I’ve been thinking so succinctly in a single video. Very good explanation also.
I even have a running list on my phone titled “Songs in which Taylor Swift just sings on ‘re’ for a while” (re is solfege for supersonic) which was inspired by her new album 💀💀💀
The fact the ‘peak’ song for this is a fucking Katy Perry song sent me 🤣🤣
Does anyone have any examples of songs that don’t use this? Or, artists who don’t rely on this as much?
Fascinating! love Andrew Huang's work too
Wow I'm shook. I don't know anything about music and notes so this really surprised me. It really becomes so obvious when he starts giving examples. XD
Edit: Also, all Weeknd songs sound the same like wtf??
Its not. Its obsessed with this two note.
;)
Tell me why I started laughing as soon as he mentioned Never Really Over 💀 iconic
Also, is this my problem with thinking too many Weeknd songs sound the same for me to enjoy him?
