Pop music only consists of 4 chords

How many songs can you wring out of 4 chords?

Still, it's one more chord than Status Quo ever used!

Very good, I then posted the Rage of Thrones one (caution - language!) on my sister-in-laws FB wall as it was extremely apt for her. :yeah:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramones Yup all ya' need is four! With just four chords and one manic tempo, New York's Ramones blasted open the clogged arteries of mid-'70s rock, reanimating the music. Their genius was to recapture the short/simple aesthetic from which pop had strayed, adding a caustic sense of trash-culture humor and minimalist rhythm guitar sound.http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...mones_logo.jpgHow minimal? "Blitzkrieg Bop" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrcTgIJf9vM When your drivn' long haul past ten hours, these guys keep you awake BBY!:up:
