Four Chords, 36 Songs

There are only so many combinations of notes that a musician can use. It`s inevitable that we`re going to run out of original songs, hence this video. Even my beloved Journey is unoriginal. I`ve officially stopped believin`. By Axis of Awesome.

Ah yes, the "magic chord progression" is all you need. And for the record most of these songs/bands can piss off. Yes I`m talking to you One Republic.

That`s 36 leaving out the ones that have a slightly different order (like "Hurt" the cover by Cash, and so on). Amazing work, I think it`s safe to say this will be one of the best videos of 09. 5/5

the chords used here are E B C#m and A, in the key of E i believe.

however this is the same progression as the classic C G Am F in C major
