I'd argue popular music succeeds not because it is good, but because it has a big name/marketing behind it.
@BigGuyPineapple 10 ай бұрын
Agreed
@Memphy 10 ай бұрын
I disagree, I think it needs both "good" music and marketing. The biggest labels are trying to make as much money as possible. Do you really think they would be spending their money marketing mediocre music? If you want good profit you need a good product. I guess it all depends on what you define as "good" music. Is music that appeal to a broad audience bad? I wouldn't say so. Is music that doesn't appeal to a big audience bad? I wouldn't say that either. Either way, if you want to appeal to a wider audience the findings in the video are definitely useful! :)

@@Memphy Honestly this is very true. I've had multiple music producers tell me before that it really doesn't matter that much if you aren't popular yet because if your music is good enough then the popularity will follow. A record label won't pass up a hit song from someone just because they don't know who they are.

I think there's a degree of subjectivity on what's "a hit", cuz there aren't many chunes I'd call hits that are "happy", most are sad, or aggressive, that's what makes them hits. Emotion.

Yea it is sort of subjective. In this video a "hit" is considered a song that hit the top 100 charts.

he means “perceived” happiness. How many Taylor swift songs are actually happy songs? I’m more into edm now and fishers “losing it” isn’t a happy song. But perceived happiness, imo.

@@laartworkMaroon 5 still makes music? They had one hit 20+ years ago and all hits since, sound like that one. I liked “she will be loved” many years ago, but any hit I hear from them the past 10-15 years, sounds like that. I haven’t done research so I could be wrong. Probably more about “the 4 cords.”

Music is Art, if you could make the listener (most of them) thinks it was his story, or if they can feel the feelings your trying to deliver with your unique touch, that’s it! It doesn’t matter if it was english or any language or even only music. Good music will always be good music, even time can’t change that.

this is a good video, but don't limit the dynamic range of your melody. Thats what makes it stand out, also a hit must have a reason behind writing a song. very rarely artist sit down and say "im gonna write a hit" they usually have motives

Lots of big edm artist like marshmello, the Chainsmokers and many more started as djs to build reputation then they eventually created their hit song that made them famous from their they kept it the same adter they knew what the listeners likes so they found their original style and stayed with it i believe creating a hit song isnbased on luck and making music from your heart

There you go, I think it still has space to add voices, a boy band or a girl band over it. And you have your next k-pop hit. Although for those standards, it's still too slow, I've been analyzing the k-pop successful songs, and they all have a stomping sound and are fast, choreography oriented and loud. Also this was a great choice to add 7th's a proven formula from 80s pop music. I actually learned a lot from this video investigation, thank you!
