6. Maroon 5 "Memories", Pachelbel's Canon in D and all the graduation songs!
This week on Pop Kitchen, Lesley and Jeff deep dive into the writing behind Maroon 5's latest release "Memories." They dissect the history behind the track's chord progressions coming from the infamous Pachelbel's Canon in D and also its use of other melodic inspiration from "No Woman No Cry." Jeff breaks down other pop hits from the past 20 years that have also used the same chord progressions and Lesley tries to find conceptually the common nostalgic thread between them all.
Jeff and Lesley both discuss their own high school graduation songs and what they were thinking musically during that time in their own lives. With special phone in messages from ghosts of high school past.
