Hey everybody, I'm Rick Beato.
So over the past week or so a lot of my friends and also a lot of viewers have been sending
Me the same article which is called the death of the key change.
It was in this on this website called tedium
It's by a guy named Chris Della Riva.
He's a musician and data analyst at a thing called audio Mac
I don't know what it is and what he wanted to learn more about how to compose a top hit
So he spent the last few years listening to every number one hit song listen on the Billboard Hot 100 since 1958
Which is more than 1100 songs in the article.
He says he started noticing trends
He found that a quarter of the songs from the 1960s to the 1990s included a key change
But from 2010 to 2020 I could have told him this there was only one song Travis Scott's
2018 sicko mode that had a key change in it.
Here's the chart
You'll notice that the number of songs that really begins around
1964-65 where the key changes start going crazy and it really continues on until about
2005 and then it falls down to nothing it dipped a little bit in the 70s probably the disco era
But then came right back up in the 80s and 90s and then back down to nothing
He says in the article a key change can be used at the end of a song to create a lift Okay
I'll give you some examples of that or it can be used in the middle of the song as
A change in mood and I'll give you some examples of that
Before I forget if you're new to the channel or a first-time viewer hit the subscribe button now
The example he uses for a key change at the end of a song is from Michael Jackson's man in the [Dm] mirror
[G]
[C] Starts [D] in [G] G
So G G over B [C]
C [D] D
[G] That's one [C] four five
[Db] Little [Dm] passing for
[Ab]
What's [Db] [Ab] up a half-step to a flat
[Db] [Ebm] [Ab] We're [G] just
G-over [C]-b-c [D]-e-d [G] and the last time it goes G
over B [C] C
[Db]
C sharp [Dm] diminished and then it goes to a minor five chord
And then [Ab] there's a break and then
[Dbm] So that's [C] the half-step lift is what we would call it that happens at the end of the song
This actually happens in the middle of this song really and stays in that key for the rest of the song
Another example of a key change at [G] the end of a song to give it lift is the song living on a prayer by Bon Jovi
now living on a prayer [C]
[G] is
Really in the key of G at the beginning.
So [C] G uses one four [D] five
[Em] Six, I'm gonna start from the solo
[C] [Em]
[C] [G]
[Em] [C] [D]
[Eb] Okay, [C] [F]
[Bb] [Eb] [F]
that's a modulation up a minor third really jarring sounding really kind of a strange modulation because it puts the vocal
Melody in the stratosphere.
It's incredibly hard to sing
Imagine for John to do this live because the vocals are right at the top of his range another great example of ending
Modulations is the king of ending modulations and a person I've never spoken about on this channel
Which is Barry Manilow Barry Manilow did the whole step modulation in so many of his [Gm] big songs
including his biggest song Mandy [Bb] which
[Gm] [Eb]
In the key [F] of B-flat, so it's going
[Bb] [C] So [Am]
[Dm] that [Bb] song starts in B-flat one chord
[Gm] [Eb] [F]
[B] So it's [Gm] one six [F] four five
[Eb] [C]
[A] [F] [G]
Same thing up a whole step.
So from the key of B-flat to the key of C is a whole step up
Modulation next let's talk about an internal modulation.
[Abm] I'll give you a great example Nirvana about a [Em] girl
[G] [Em] [G] [Em]
so
[G] [E] About a girl starts e minor or e power chord
[G] [Em] [G]
[Em] [G] [Em] [G] in the chorus
[Db] So [Gb]
[Db] [Em] it's going from the key of E minor
[G] So [Em] it's [G] E minor G and [Db] then he goes to D flat major
[Gm] Totally [Em] weird so
[Db] very majestic sounds kind of like John Williams
[Gb]
[Db] [Gb]
[E] [A] [C] [E]
[G] [Em] Perfect [G]
[Db] use of a modulation doesn't sound weird at all
But it's weird another perfect example of a modulation in the middle of the song is the bridge of every breath you take by the police
Perfect example of modulation.
So check it out
[Ab] So that's D flat [Fm] to E flat to F minor right [E] here
[Gb]
[E] Amazing
[Gb] Love [E]
this then changes
[Ab] back to the back to a flat so
we've got this, [Db] you know the
[Eb]
[Ab]
[E] one
This is really the four and five chord in the key of B
[Gb]
[E] [N]
Perfect modulation there if we go back to the 60s
there are so many Beatles songs that have modulations one of the most famous is Penny Lane [B] and starts out
[Abm] [Gb] [E]
[Gb] [B] [Abm] [Gb] [Bm] changes key there.
[Ab] [G]
[Gb] [E]
[A] So [D] we've gone from the key of [B] B to [A] the key of A.
[D] [Dm] So that's a
whole step down modulation and then it goes back into the key of B for the next
verse.
So that song modulates from the verse to the chorus.
Another great
example this one's from 1970 of a song with a modulation from the verse to
chorus and one of my favorite songs is a song I'll Be There by the Jackson 5.
I
love when it goes to the chorus.
Listen.
[F]
So it [C] starts on the one [F] chord.
[C] [Dm]
[F] [Am]
[Bb] [Gm]
[F]
Then here we [Ab] go.
[Eb] Oh so [Bb]
[F]
[Ab] [Eb]
[F] that's going from the key of F major up to A flat major so
it's a minor third modulation up but it's so beautiful.
[Ab]
[Eb] [Bb] Oh [F] that's so so
[E] powerful.
Just beautiful beautiful key change there.
That kills me.

know what you think.

In the key [F] of B-flat, so it's going _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ [C] So _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [Dm] that [Bb] song starts in B-flat one chord
_ [Gm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [F] _
[B] So it's [Gm] one six [F] four five _

So from the key of B-flat to the key of C is a whole step up
Modulation next let's talk about an internal modulation.
[Abm] I'll give you a great example Nirvana about a [Em] girl
_ [G] _ _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ [Em]
so
[G] _ [E] About a girl starts e minor or e power chord
_ [G] _ _ [Em] _ _ [G] _
_ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _ [Em] _ [G] in the chorus
[Db] So _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [Db] [Em] it's going from the key of E minor
[G] So _ [Em] it's [G] E minor G and [Db] then he goes to D flat major
[Gm] Totally [Em] weird so _
[Db] very _ _ majestic sounds kind of like John Williams
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ [C] _ _ [E] _
_ _ [G] _ [Em] Perfect [G] _ _ _
_ [Db] use of a modulation doesn't sound weird at all
But it's weird another perfect example of a modulation in the middle of the song is the bridge of every breath you take by the police
Perfect example of modulation.
So check it out _
[Ab] So that's D flat [Fm] to E flat to F minor right _ [E] here _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ Amazing
_ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ Love _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ this then changes
[Ab] _ back to the back to a flat so
we've got this, [Db] you know the
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ one
This is really the four and five chord in the key of B
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [N] _ _
Perfect modulation there if we go back to the 60s
there are so many Beatles songs that have modulations one of the most famous is Penny Lane [B] and starts out
_ [Abm] _ [Gb] _ [E] _ _
[Gb] _ _ [B] _ _ [Abm] _ [Gb] _ [Bm] changes key there.
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ So _ [D] we've gone from the key of [B] B to [A] the key of A. _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [Dm] So that's a
whole step down modulation and then it goes back into the key of B for the next
verse.
So that song modulates from the verse to the chorus.
Another great
example this one's from 1970 of a song with a modulation from the verse to
chorus and one of my favorite songs is a song I'll Be There by the Jackson 5.
I
love when it goes to the chorus.
Listen.
_ [F] _
So it [C] starts on the one [F] chord. _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Then here we [Ab] go. _ _ _
[Eb] Oh _ so _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[F] that's going from the key of F major up to A flat major so
it's a minor third modulation up but it's so beautiful.
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] Oh [F] that's so so
[E] powerful.
Just beautiful beautiful key change there.
That kills me.
