Hey! I am Mark Black and wlcome to expertvillage.com and we are going to be talking about advanced theory in song writing. So we take the progression... that was a full sound, but that was all normative. For example to spell it out when you are in the key of D bass B minor, part of the chord, A bass, E minor, E bass of G, and then an A, that is all normative.
