29 May 13 - 11:40 AM (#3520386) Subject: Songs w/ same chords as Heart & Soul From: Crowhugger I'm putting together an a cappella sing-along medley of songs that use the same chords as Heart and Soul. The plan: We'll teach accompaniment parts to the audience, chorus members will spread out amongst them to help keep that on track, and one or more designated soloists will karaoke the melody over that. I know there are many songs to fit the bill but I can only think of Sh-boom. Please, what others?? |

30 May 13 - 07:31 AM (#3520665) Subject: RE: Songs w/ same chords as Heart & Soul From: wordfella You're referencing a 1-6m-4-5 pattern. Sometimes the 4 is 2m7. Here are some: "Runaround Sue" "Stand by Me" "Goodnight Sweetheart" "Sleepwalk" (though it's 4m) "Hey Baby" "Blue Moon" "26 Miles" |

04 Jun 13 - 07:53 PM (#3522820) Subject: RE: Songs w/ same chords as Heart & Soul From: Joe_F Isn't there one that goes I vi ii V (e.g., C Am Dm G) instead? What's *it* called? Or have I been mishearing it all these years? |
05 Jun 13 - 12:13 AM (#3522880) Subject: RE: Songs w/ same chords as Heart & Soul From: Crowhugger For many songs the 2 chord patterns are interchangeable. When I was a kid fooling at piano 4 hands (with bro or mom), whomever was doing the accompaniment routinely swapped in and out various majors, minors and 7ths while the other improvised melodies. Basically a very fun jam for us kids. I think mom got more than a little bored with the repetition ad infinitum. |
