Quote:Originally posted by JAYNEZTOWN: I wasn't familiar with that song 'Never Gonna Let You Go' but Yeah I remember that vid, Rick he's a skilled jazz guy and educated and before he was an audio engineer he was a good player so assumed a 'pop song' would be normal and easy. I wasn't familiar with the song but great song, its not really my groove or style or tempo or chords or energy...too romantic maybe or emo but I respect it and I think its probably a lyrics piece and melody from the heart.
Quote:I haven't played in a while but with notes I could probably chance playing it on something bass or piano but I would do it with notes, not something you just go and wing-it easily. I'm not that good on guitar and Rick is a far better player than me. Logically you'd take it in blocks verse, chorus, solo, bridge, verse, chorus or something...in most songs there is a simple code or pattern, even if it seems complex you might figure out oh its Modal Funky Mixolydian or Phrygian Latin...but not this... but it has so many changes I don't know what it was like G Major or starts in F sharp minor or then it goes to a type of G progression and then a different B flat Major progression then another change. It looked like a nighmare to learn quick, everytime you think you've figured it out it jumps somewhere like a Classical song doing weird key changes but there is no logic to it that you can easily see or I can not see anyway. Maybe he or she who wrote the song had some Latin or Brazilian or Jewish or Folk song Rock logic but I could not see a pattern, I was a little lost following Rick who he himself still seemed kinda lost??? its not like it drop to the Fifth and changes Key major to Minor or jump to the Fourth or up to the Fifth, there are like single tone and half tone changes. Is that a Super Mario video game Cadence?...no its not going where you expect, its another change. You would probably have to tape some stick note paper to the side of a mic or piano that you could take a quick glance at. Most pop songs are simple 3 Chord tricks or even 2 and the changes within are simple but that song travels to all kinds of places. With all the weird Chord changes Sus, inversion, it seems almost more complicated like a complex Classical Music or Jazz piece but even those simple Cadence, 'Baroque' can have a standard logic to them, easy Jazz standard 2 V 1? I would think the guy or girl just wrote out melody and lyrics and then people with an ear figured out how to put Chords to it which is why it goes almost 'Everywhere'. I wonder if it does have a true pattern somewhere if the notes were wrote out does something, a visible pattern of notes jump out at you, I'm thinking no and it was a piece of his emotions inside broadcast and then recorded.
Quote:Great story of them trying to do it on the fly without much practice, 'pride comes before a fall' haughtiness and hubris and humor... I will definitely watch the vid again. I've no intention of ever 'Learning It' if Rick Beato can't play it. It's strange that with all the odd changes the song never really soounds 'out' maybe there is like some kind of bossa trick or pattern to it but hidden inside?

Quote:Originally posted by JAYNEZTOWN: I looked it up, husband and wife team of Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann are given credits, they are NYC and not Latin but 'Artists' and ...I dunno....maybe 2 people made a song more crazy? they were probably arguing over the few days that they wrote it which way it would go and this perhaps would explain why it got so Schizo with the crazy changes. watching some of the vid now, the Song is even crazier than I remember

Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack: What I can tell though is that Best That You Can Do would be the "easy" version of Never Gonna Let You Go. My guess after a few listens to both of them is that there are about half as many chords in Christopher Crosses' song.
