How to write a pop song: the same 4 Chords.

An example of how not to use aforementioned technique: Nickelback.

Can you leave if I tell you you're wrong and I can prove it? And also that you have shitty taste in music?

Are you saying that you like Nickelback?  :?

Also

1. I didn't recognize most of those songs.
2. Being able to sing any pop song to the same generic chord isn't relevant to anything.


YOU WOULDN'T KNOW

         because emo music and chic rock doesn't apply

You don't really know me, do you?

NO,

I read it as saying nickelback is an exception to the rule of 4 chord pop stuff.
If i read that wrong, sue me.

Lets not give Lyris something to try and one up on me for.

I'm not "in" on whatever your dispute with Lyris is, I'm just saying that you totally misread that and it made you sound like Nickelback's #1 fan.

For the sake of EOT, who is not familiar with Nickelback:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cQh1ccqu8M

That's their best song.

THEIR BEST ONE.

I will, for the record, confess that when I was 29 years old and 118 pounds with hair down to my ass, driving a yellow 1977 Plymouth Arrow (with a green racing stripe) and going by Lola, I listened to Nickelback and Staind, and I FUCKING LIKED IT. Because when you're doing 95 in a 70's muscle car with no muffler and a passenger door that flies open on sharp lefts, this is the kind of shit that fits.

See, I read that as "To not write a pop song cus they're obviously better than 4 chords: Nickelback."
- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

Yes, I totally misread it. It's very vague what was said, so I took it to mean something else.

- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!
