They used to perform this song often, mixing in new songs to keep it relevant. Theres another fifty songs just in the other performances uploaded to youtube.
Oooh
Most people don't realize that most songs have 3-6 chords at most. 4 chords is the standard with the majority of music. The music industry made it so simple because it allowed them to sign more artists and make money off of them, even the 1 hit wonders. I love how these guys brought this to light in a comical way! It takes talent to do what they did!
To be fair, the human mind tends to drift towards 4 chord songs because it sounds good. I don't think it's ALWAYS about laziness, it's more of a coincidence. What they did here is actually very complicated where they matched all of these different songs in different keys and put them in the same key with the same tempo, which shows their talent. It's quite impressive.
It's similar to the tempo of a song. Yes there are musicians that use unique time signatures but overall 4/4 sounds good to most people. It's more of a psychological thing imo. I do hate the music industry these days and tbh it's always been screwed up, but to discount an artist because they made a song with 4 chords is a bit disingenuous. Again, people do it so often because it sounds good to the human ear. Have the music labels exploited this? Abso-fucking-lutely. But just because an artist sticks to 4 chords doesn't mean they're not talented or worthy of recognition. There are more factors to a song than just chords. Melody, tempo, key, lyrics, vibe, all contribute and to blend these characteristics into something many people enjoy takes a level of skill and artistry that shouldn't be overlooked.
It's more respectable when the artist(s) actually make it themselves though. At least in my opinion.
TL;DR: music is more complicated than just the chords they use.
@@GageTheCannon Hit reply to drop a rant and you took the words out of my mouth.
4 chord songs work because they are pleasing to the human ear, and the important depth is what happens within those 4 chords. Good on ya.
Hahaha, great clip. Props to the one who requested this classic.
🤍
David Bennet has even coined the term “Axis of Awesome - Chord Progression” for this chord progression (I - V - vi - IV) because of this performance. There is a whole video on this: th-cam.com/video/U8ImkF7FMPw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ga5MB1ADvD5vzqix
First time seeing your channel, got here through the axis of awesome, who i love. The moment you said you like FotC, i knew you would like them. Same type of self deprecating humor. My favorite song from them is How You Write a Love Song.
Fun Fact about this song... I've seen others mention how they do different versions of this song, incorporating different songs to change things up. There is a song on there you might not have heard, the song about the canvas bags. Its a song by Tim Minchin (another comedian from Australia), who played before them during this show. He played it before them, and then they incorporated it into their 4 chord song the same night, which is why it got such a big reaction. The song has been incorporated to the song ever since.
Loved this reaction Maddy, as they went through the songs realising how many songs you knew were just four chords had me grinning. I haven't seen Axis of Awesome in an age a great reminder.
Cheers, Maddy! Thanks for your thoughts! Glad you liked it!
No prob! Nice recommendation 🤗
This version was from like ten years ago. They update it all the time, to make sure current songs are in the rotation.
These guys are from my country Australia! Congrats Maddy your channel is kicking off 33k subs woo hoo!
I don't know if anybody mentioned this in the comments before but "take your canvas bags" part was improvised. It wasn't in their original plan.
Howdy from the UK! So cool to hear the mention of flight of the chonchords 🎉. Great video, you're defo the best reactor in the room, depending on the room , defo in the top two 😀
Song request: Starlight by Oktaf Kanis, thanks Maddy 🙏🏻💕
Ohh love this song! ❤
Yess Starlight 🔥🔥🔥
seeing people discover Axis of Awesome and the multiple variations of their 4 chord song has been great
Just amazing 😂😂😂
Agreed!! Lol
Brilliant they just showed the truth to most songs have only 4 to 5 chords later beautiful girl.❤️🤘😎
Right!!
Very cool ! Crazy ass group! 😅 Again Ms. Maddy, love you and your stuff ❤ 😜
Many don´t realize how hard what they did here is to do, it´s not only putting random songs with those cords togethrer, but the lyrics also have to flow together and they have had to lissten and have looked through atleast dubble the amount of songs used picing together diffrent parts.
So true!!
Enjoy yourself. Take only what you need. Jus caught that part of the song.
this women is great, just needs internet historian videos
I’ve done a couple! Thank you 🩷
i love this song, it reminds me of the Paganini rant. big love to all people :)

A man could get addicted to her smile.
They have many other editions with song mixups at least 5.
Oh cool!!
😂🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃 Mas quantities of Alcohol for this vision..👏👏👏👏
Well Done and Funny ❤. I enjoyed it.👍🤠✌️❤️
These guys are great, and correct. All songs use the same cord to a point. Just listen to Baw Baw black sheep and Twinkle little star, they are the same song. trust me I know. I volunteer at a children's hospital and an assisted living to play for the kids and older adults on piano. I can name may more, but most cords are based on a 3 to 4 cord structure.
So true!!
chord.

so just wondering if we don't pay you won't do request
Hi from Australia the home of Axis of Awesome , love the reaction , great job Maddy , love it :)
Have you heard of “I’m Not Madonna” by Hi Fashion?
how do you do it with your hands?
😍
React to walk off the earth, old town road. Done with strange instruments but its incredible.
Should watch Tim Minchin-Canvas bag, Predjudice, dark side awesome version, if i didnt have you
I know you probably won't see my comment, but it's worth a try. There's a band called Beach House. They have great songs, but Space Song and Myth are especially noteworthy. These are very popular tiktok songs but hardly anyone reacts to them on youtube.
Space Song live on Pitchfork Festival is the best version of this song.
I like Beach House! 🤗 ❤️
This is epically brilliant 👏👌😂😂😂
Agreed
We are a simple species.
Nice one Maddy! ...lol...
So fun.
Agreed 🤍
Thank you for putting a smile on my face!

Please do something by the legendary Paul Williams No one reacts to him even though It's done so many great songs
I'm sorry what? Flight of the concords is one of your favourite shows? You really are the perfect woman 😂
Great cover band..
So good
Please look up wizard of ahhs by pentatonix
I-V-vi-IV
….there, now go write a pop hit 😀
This is the same observation as the "pachelbel rant": th-cam.com/video/JdxkVQy7QLM/w-d-xo.html
Nobody catches the joke where they say they've been performing for 40 years, yet are clearly younger than 40
😂😂😂
Hi maddy 👋
Hey!!
your mic keeps dying.
