Burt Bacharach's Clever Key Changes

❗ CORRECTION: There are a few typos in the chords during this video. At 4:47, bars 4 and 5 should be G chords, not C chords. And at 9:04, bar 4 should be "Gbmaj7" not "Gmaj7" and bar 7 should have a "Bbm7", not a "Bm7". Sorry for any confusion and thank you to the observant viewers who brought these to my attention 😊

Along with his lyricist, Hal David, Burt Bacharach crafted some of the best known songs of the 20th century. His writing style is distinct and nuanced, often finding ways to hide complex musical ideas in plain sight, and his key changes were no exception to this!
