      The 4m is actually the negative harmony mirror to a 5 chord, so yes you’re right. 4m is theoretically the only chord with equivalent tension and resolution to the 1 as a 5

      I'm not remotely well-educated in music theory but what I've learned (including a lot on this channel) is so satisfying, because it shares a way of talking about a common experience that is otherwise difficult to put into words and talk about with other people. It's almost like etymology, the "ah ha! *That's* why it's the way it is!" moments

    It sounds really good as a companion to the doo-wop progression. For example, in the outro to Happiness is a Warm Gun, they vamp on the doo-wop progression for a few bars, and then it hits that iv. Another cool example is in Sleep Walk by Santo & Johnny where the IV has been completely replaced by the iv.

    An equally lovely sister chord to iv is iv6, which sounds as an inverted ii7b5. Found in older, Tin Pan Alley era songs. Some call it the "White Christmas" chord: it sets up the ending on the lyric "bright," and hints that the singer's holiday is anything but.

    Rick Wakeman (if you're old enough to remember him, lol) loves using the minor plagal cadence, particularly in King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.

    love this chord sm😭one of my fav examples is the song Chillin the Regrets from Alice by Heart-- the verses alternate between F and Bbm, which creates this awesomely disconcerting and dreamy feeling that matches the lyrics :)

    I love the minor 4 so much and I'm so glad you did a video on it!! My favorite example is "Take It Easy on Me" by Little River Band which uses it many times throughout the song.

    A very good example of the the Minor 4 Chord in my opinion is "All That Glitters" by OMD from their 1991 album "Sugar Tax". It's the closing track on this dark record. It creates such a melancholy which makes you want to cry. Yes, it's the quote "All that glitters is not gold". And when you know the quote, then you know how melancholy has to sound. The chord progression in the verses is: "I-IV-I-I-vi-ii-V-V". And it's one of the most beautiful songs that I have ever heard.

    I was literally just going through all the Beatles songs that use the iv as a cadence to the I tonic and was thinking, how has David Bennett not done this yet!!

    Another awesome video!
    Pink Floyd's "Nobody Home" also uses the minor 4 much like Bowie's "Space Oddity". You still get that awesome, "I'm about to lose it" feeling.
