It turns out that Relative Multipolar Tonality, an idea outlined by Kayano Chino in the book Japanese Music Harmony, is not that unusual a harmonic technique. We look at a handful of American and British pop songs that all use a mixture of chords from the major key and its relative minor.
Songs included:
Such Great Heights by The Postal Service
Cryin' by Aerosmith
Don't Look Back in Anger by Oasis
I Want To Hold Your Hand by The Beatles
Creep by Radiohead
Steven Universe Opening by Rebecca Sugar
Space Oddity by David Bowie

as someone who thinks music theory is super cool and yet knows nothing about it, everything you're saying is going over my head but I'm enjoying it anyways

This gives the line "I don't belong here" in Radiohead's "Creep" a whole new meaning.

David Bowie was a master in using strange chord progressions and this has been said by the musicians who worked with him over the years. One of the jazz musicians who worked with him on his last album was absolutely amazed by the very strange chords he used. there is an interview from him on this platform wich is very enlightning.

I love when chords clash and it sounds both heavenly and hellish at the same time.

The Creep and Steven Universe had me rolling. What a breakdown of angsty and melancholy music.

Thereās a song by David Bowie called āFive Yearsā. The song itself is really depressing as it discusses how the world is dying and only has five years left to live. Anyways, near the end of the song in the chorus, there is a guitar solo that captured my attention immediately when I first listened to it because of how out of place it sounded. It is my favorite part of the song and I always say how it reminds me of somebody crying or weeping. Although it sounds so weird compared to the other instruments in the background, it captures the meaning and vibe of the song, beautifully.

Loss.
Bitter sweet.
Nostalgia is fond memories for something gone.
Creep fits perfectly, because it's the feeling that he's lost something he never had, the person he desires in the song and how he feels about himself.

He's studied music theory for 47 years straight... no breaks at all

I started finger-picking the chords for Steven Universe last week, in like triplets on the first 3 strings of my ukulele without singing, and I was likeā¦ waitā¦ is this Creep. Very timely having it confirmed in this video!

I started composing music like this without realizing just because I've been influenced by the music of anime and JRPGs my whole life. Seeing it spelt out makes a lot of sense now!

ive always loved these "wrong notes" so im glad to see it actually makes sense

The notion that you can just raise the tempo of creep, add the melody of space oddity and basically get the Steven universe theme is something I'm amazed by

Your description of Space Oddity is perfect. "Is it happy or sad" "hopeful or hopeless". I hear Space Oddity as the stereotyped "happy?" ending, where in the end you've won, but your unsure if the cost was worth it...

Another example: The End - My Chemical Romance
The progression makes it feel as if it is indeed the end. Then that chord comes along and suddenly you start to question everything you stand for, like "IS it the end?!?"

iv has got to be my favorite chord of all time. Its so sad and fits so well in any song to just rip your heart out. It's very easy to notice in a song because of its dissonance to the key, yet its gorgeous feel.

I understood maybe 10% of this, but it is FASCINATING to me that there's an actual system and rule to this very distinct musical emotion. I adore everything melancholic, so uh, guess I have a favourite chord thing or whatever.

The Steven universe was definitely made to sound like space oddity, I have always thought that

Duuuude! I am so happy the youtube algorithm brought me to your channel! We need more of people like you, Charles Cornell, Rick Beato etc. out there. The way you guys are able to communicate these advanced harmonic concepts to the layman is wonderful to see. I am a music educator myself and seeing how you guys teach us is a wonderful example to follow into my own classroom.

ā ļø NOTE: The publisher filed a copyright claim and I had to remove the excerpt of Creep. Sorry! Luckily Steven Universe's chord progression sounds exactly the same. š“ Also thanks for your concern everyone but I sleep just fine, dark circles are genetic and my father and grandma had them too! I want to clear some things up with the theory. Yes I know modal interchange and borrowed chords exist, I am not at all suggesting that we can't get a perfectly clean analysis of any of these songs with those frames of reference. I love modal interchange and use it all the time! What Iām presenting here is just another lens to look at things, which supports and does not deny the modal relationship between these chords. The reason āmultipolar tonalityā, which yes is a term someone recently made up, is being used here is because weāre specifically looking at key centers. Not just using colorful chords from similar modes, but how those chords suggest different keys within a passage. What makes the theory interesting, and different from modal interchange, is that while you can use modal interchange for an isolated chord, the ākey fluctuationsā happen at the phrase level. So a phrase with the chords āC Ebā would not really make sense in the context of multipolar tonality. āRelative Multipolar Tonalityā is not in itself particularly interesting and I think many people are overthinking it. Itās just talking about music that flows between a major key and itās relative minor, thatās all. Itās a stepping stone to the more colorful and interesting versions of multipolar tonality that are not discussed in this specific video.
