The Beatles‘ “Let It Be” is one of the most beloved hit songs of the 1970s. Florida Georgia Line have every reason to try to mimic the song. One of Florida Georgia Line’s biggest hits has a chord progression that sounds like that of “Let It Be.” Interestingly, a member of Florida Georgia Line said the band’s fans had a strong response to the song in question.
A Florida Georgia Line song has a structure like The Beatles’ ‘Let It Be’ and other hits
Florida Georgia Line became famous for “bro country” songs like “Cruise” and “This Is How We Roll” that focus on sexy ladies, partying, beer, and trucks. Their love song “H.O.L.Y.” is a departure from that style. “H.O.L.Y.,” an acronym for “high on loving you,” is a ballad that blends spirituality with sensuality.
Rolling Stone reports that “H.O.L.Y.” uses a descending chord progression similar to The Beatles’ “Let It Be.

Classic rock wouldn’t be the same without classical music. The Beatles’ “Let It Be” is based on one of the most famous classical pieces ever. So are a lot of other pop songs!
The Beatles’ ‘Let It Be’ is 1 of several pop songs inspired by Pachelbel’s Canon
In his 2020 book A Sound Mind: How I Fell in Love With Classical Music (and Decided to Rewrite Its Entire History), music writer Paul Morley discussed the impact of Johann Pachelbel’s Canon in D, a piece of classical music also known as Pachelbel’s Canon. “Johann Pachelbel’s Canon in D major [is] the original source of ambient music,” he said. “It was written possibly for his mentee Johann Bach’s (J. S. Bach’s father) wedding in 1694, more likely for just the kind of ordinary domestic function Telemann’s Table Music was designed for, and after being rediscovered in the 1920s,...

A multifaceted and occasionally unwieldy manifesto for disaffected lovers, Christine and the Queens’s Paranoïa, Angels, True Love is the culmination of the increasingly ambitious approach to pop that the French singer displayed on past releases like 2018’s Chris. On the first track, Chris makes his worldview known: “From where I stand, everything is glorious.” What follows is a collection of wiry, introspective songs that break from pop conventions while asserting the life-affirming power of love.
The track that perhaps best encapsulates Paranoïa, Angels, True Love’s conceptual ethos is “Track 10,” in which Chris, desperate for human contact, begs his lover to take him dancing. Marking the end of the album’s cavernous and tumultuous first movement, the song flows along to the artist’s stream-of-conscious lyrics, accompanied by a destabilizing drumbeat and gothic guitars while he cycles between howls, gritty growls, and falsetto.
Like “Track 10,” much of the rest...

This celebrated dysfunctional family story won four Oscars, the most deserved easily being Alvin Sargent’s superb adapted screenplay. The viewer buzz initially centered on the surprise of Mary Tyler Moore’s unexpected casting against type, but even more alarming was author Judith Guest’s scary message that ‘perfect’ families are an illusion. We found the drama absorbing and bought the performances 100 — Sutherland, Hirsch, Hutton, McGovern. It’s clearly Robert Redford’s best job of direction.

Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno has led a multi-faceted life. To modern rock fans he's perhaps best known as the imaginative producer of U2's, David Bowie's, and Talking Heads' most adventurous work, and secondarily remembered as an early and eccentric member of Roxy Music. To new age and techno fans, he's the de facto inventor of the ambient music genre. Pop fans can thank him for the best work by James, Coldplay, and Ultravox. Punk fans owe him one for No New York's introduction of the four most iconic No Wave Bands.
His collaborations with Harold Budd (favorite: The Pearl), Robert Fripp (favorite: (no pussyfooting)), David Byrne (the groundbreaking My Life in the Bush of Ghosts), John Cale (especially the delightful Wrong Way Up), and others sometimes find him as much a facilitator as a creator, yet still have an ineffable Eno-ness to them.

Johann Pachelbel knew a good thing when he heard it -- the German composer found eight notes to use in his Canon, and doggone it, he stuck with those eight notes. But unless you're a cellist who'd secretly rather be working in a factory, "Pachelbel's Canon," catchy though it is, isn't all that fun to play. That is until!!
"Rockelbel's Canon," y'all. Oh yeah. Things get wonderfully jazzhandy in this video from The Piano Guys, featuring four clones of cellist Steven Sharp Nelson (a Hank Azaria lookalike who plays with light sabers) doing an arrangement he came up with while bored at a wedding (it happens) featuring only sounds made using a cello.
