Title: Songs written/recorded in non-traditonal ways Post by: punkinhead on August 01, 2012, 02:32:15 PM As I think of the traditional pop song, I think of the structure: verse/chorus/verse/chorus/instrumental solo/chorus. I was thinking of making a list of the BB/BW songs that are perform in such a way that avoids that structure. Feel free to add any:
Most of Pet Sounds/Smile/Smiley Endless Harmony Winds of Change When Girls Get Together Trader Add Some Music You Need a Mess of Help* Solar System Getcha Back* Talk To Me/Tallahassee Lassie Male Ego TM Song Sweet Mountain* Sunshine* Sail On Sailor Til I Die Airplane Funky Pretty Let the Wind Blow Time to Get alone Day in the Life of a Tree The Night Was so Young the ones with *'s are ones I'm not quite sure of.

those all have pretty traditional structures if you ask me. Title: Re: Songs written/recorded in non-traditonal ways Post by: mr_oleary on August 02, 2012, 05:05:47 AM Heroes and Villains - the 'heroes' part features impressive ragtime-esque modulations and harmonies but only has two chords
You Still Believe in Me- combines elements of bach (heavy reliance on V-I movement), jazz (progressions, dissonant chord in chorus) and God (the harmonies at the end) Title: Re: Songs written/recorded in non-traditonal ways Post by: Disney Boy (1985) on August 02, 2012, 05:19:21 AM Almost everything on Smile, Smiley Smile and Pacific Ocean Blue.
