After watching this, maybe the best thing to do is put that pattern away for a little while and revisit it in maybe 10 years or so.

Thankfully it's the melody and chord (or exact arrangement with chords) combo that must be present in creating a copyright. I once had someone ask me, "How do you know if your not stealing someones song". My response is that we should never consciously do so, yet we can not give it too much thought otherwise we would become paralyzed in our creative action.
Hasn't anyone ever heard of "Rhythm Changes"? It's just a chord progression.
So is this progression the new "Rhythm Changes" ?
:)
Good thing chord changes are not copyrighted or there would be only one blues song.
The good thing (fun anyway) is that you can sing any combination of these songs together.
Hey, they are all completely different songs. No need to retire this particular chord progression any more than we should retire I, IV, V or I, vi, ii, V progressions!
Whether or not they shame the same chords for part of the song these are all completely different songs. No need to retire this particular chord progression any more than we should retire I, IV, V or I, vi, ii, V progressions!
Good stuff. It's not just the same chords, but the same notes in many of the melodies.
Just goes to show that what makes many songs different from one another is the space between the notes.
Finite notes, but infinite rhythms. It's all about WHEN you sing or play during a song and not WHAT you play.
