The Other Four Chords

While the Axis of Awesome may have found one common chord progression, this video explains a similar, but entirely new chord progression found over the last 70 years (30 more than Axis of Awesome, might I add). The original Four Chords follows the IV-VI-IV progression (CG-Am-F in the C scale) while the Other Four Chords follows the I-VI-IV-V progression (C-Am-FG in the C scale). This recording was played in the F scale (transposed 5 steps down from Bb, if anyone noticed), so the progression was F-Dm-Bb-C.
