●The chords don't really matter, it's all about the key and tempo of the songs.
●it's half time not double time :P
●This video should have waaay more views
●This is EPIC
●38 different songs
●chicken little xD
●And I'm Benny ;-;
●yup most likely
●Love that!!
●That was falsetto, though, wasn't it?
●one m0:00re time
●For those who wants to know the chords it's E B C#m A, these chords work aswell that everyone uses in todays music, C F Am G
●This is so very, very true of pop music. It doesn't give one much choice in the world of notes but the world sways to it. After all, this is what they give us to work with. Jeremiah Wright spoke about this same phenomena when addressing the press club that dark and dreary election time. Michael Jackson said he couldn't sleep b/c of those same chords playing in his head alll the time. It's hypnotic. The music industry is leading us where they want. Great video!
●:)
●that was totally amazing ! good job!
●>We never wrote a 4 chord song! >Put their own song in here
●3:19 sorta...........
●3:16 OMG he can actually sing the chorus with out falsetto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
●well, they also said they have been a band for 40 years, so, stretching the truth a bit
●I love the fact that they say they have never written a 4 chord song, yet they use Birdplane, which is their own song!
●The ironic thing is... at the beginning the singer asks "Why haven't we had a hit song?", and the keyboard player answers (according to their pre-planned comedy skit) "Because we don't have a 4 chord song.". Well, now they did a 4 chord song and guess what.. It's the hit that got them famous! Ohh, the self-fulfilling irony.
●SSSSSIIIINNNNGGGGGGG
●So very clever guys!!! :-)
●Isn't it paradox? This is probably the only song without chorus

●Wrong also, if you gave it more thought you'd have said that this thing is for guitarists, who wanna use a synthesizer but have no clue how to use an actual synth, so they can buy this thing and move their hands as if on a guitar so they can still use a synth but it's easier for them.
●My opinion- This is shit.. The usual rock guitars, are way fucking better than this shit. Sorry people, i love classic (i mean, normal rock guitars)
●But digital music is shit,man.
●you obviously don't know shit about music if you are saying that dubstep is the music of the future...its not music. its a bunch of kids that got picked on too much making weird ass noises come out of some stupid expensive computer. music comes from instruments, computers are not instruments. end of story
●this the biggest shit i have ever heard
●What the fuck did i just watch
●This instrument saddened me.. it sounds like crap. REAL guitar will never die.
●The guitar is just too silastic and way to learn at least this will give youngsters something worthwhile learning with its unlimited sonic abilities!
●Finally a decent replacement for the boring old stone age guitar, if Hendrix had this he would have made some music that would have stood the test of time, imagine what Satriani and Vai could do with this beauty, no more borefests. The future of music is clearly Dubstep and this is the ideal instrument for it, no more wire twanging just supercool digital bass and 96bit digital sound,
●it's not a guitar, but a synthesizer you can play like a guitar. get it right
●the future SUCKS!!! me no likey the touch screen!!!!!!!!!
●that is so wrong.....
●what a jhanpar guitaaaaaar
●CONGRATS for 790 bucks you have yet another guitar B|
●WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT???
●that is the lamest piece of shit i have ever seen.
●It's like playing a strange keyless piano on the right hand and same left hand, only every technique (hammer ons, pulls offs, bending, harmonics) seem to go to waste...
●sounds like shitttt
●kk ^^
●sound too mechanical... thumbs down.
●sad thing is he running that digital guitar through a tube amp..... LOL jk
●I guess that joke was over your head. I was just stating that this guitar resembled what Nintendo's (video game company) next controller kinda looks like. I agree with you that this guitar is just a novelty though.
●Well this was crappy..... Exept for if they want to use it to make the new pokemon's soundtrack
●hmmm interesting ide could be used as a cool gimmick but nothing more, seartanly not replace the REAL! guitar
●O kurwa ja pierdole... It's fucking, kurwa, epic!!!

From an original CD: JUPITER NASA-VOYAGER SPACE SOUNDS (1990) BRAIN/MIND Research Fascinating recording of Jupiter sounds (electromagnetic "voices") by NASA-Voyager. The complex interactions of charge
●I know there is no air in space, i just thought it wasn't necessary to point out.
●I don't understand why did you reply to my comment...
●I understand full well what you're saying but apparently this person is too ignorant to understand. Yes man has designed instruments to explore outer planets and data has come back with clear indications of them and video footage of how they move and what takes place on their surface. I guess this person just came here to argue because he/she is stuck in the past and doesn't realize how far scientists have come.
●btw there is no air so sound cannot spread in vacuum
●Wow the universe is so fascinating..!
●Whether this is the product of a mathematical rendering of electromagnetic fluctuations or not, when i listen and close my eyes, I can feel the cold vastness of space, so empty yet encasing, and I can look up to see the beautiful yet apathetic giant we know as Jupiter. Its song is ponderous and sorrowful and as mysterious as its source. I do like.
●On jupiter, there are a lot of storms due to weather conditions. Of course the sounds will be like that, windy noises, stormy noises.
●I can't comprehend how much of an idiot you are.
●The fuck?
●You just failed on so many levels that it hurts my brain when I read it...
●Trippy.
●Jupiter is calling me names .... He called me a son of a black hole that rly disturbs me
●Electromagnetic waves are in a state of flux on Jupiter because of its enormous gravity well and tilted axis. They collide with one another and this interaction is just referred to as electromagnetic vibrations for people to understand, it's actually much more complex than that. Anyway the data collected from these particle collisions is trasfered to NASA where they turn it into frequencies the human ear can recognize to give us a human understand of what Jupiter 'might sound like'.
●It's not soundwaves it's electromagnetic waves (vibrations) collected as data, and converted through a machine to tones and frequencies the human ear can recognize. If you were out there in space obviously you couldn't hear that. But in order for humans to experience what it might sound like to us, they converted those electromagnetic waves.
●You sir, are an idiot.
●thanks god
●boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-ooooooo
●i was waiting for david gilmour to start playing the guitar...
●I'm not trying to sound mean, but you should really do more research....The voyagers were sent out for this specific reason (to reach where we couldn't reach). Those satellites are now billions of miles away and apparently on the verge of leaving our solar system which is a huge step. The Hubble Telescope is also able to capture things outside our system so naturally it'd be able to capture inside of it. Behaviors of planets are examined by visual readings as well as mathematical equations.
●Nice ambient. And lot's of bullshit about Jupiter and space.
●You also wouldn't implode, you'd just suffocate. I'd offer some links, but I like to make people do the research when the info isn't too obscured. :)
●You expect me to believe that a hand painted picture of a ball is suppose to be real who the **** told them theres a hurricane on Jupiter how the **** they gonna see whats out there when they got the asteroid field the sun orbits the earth not the earth orbits the sun. Prolly just some metroid prime over the mic LOL just kidding im not trolling but lets be realistic you think we can get this much info on a a planet this far when we cant even get info on closer planets....pffft
●@ninjakitty21 maybe because its a picture of jupiter -_-
●In space, no one can hear you scream.
●That has got to be the coolest thing, i have ever seen

●I want to make love to your baby...
●wunderful
●Yup, you're right it's D-A-Bm-G (also confirmed by Wikipedia). I apologize to my past music teachers for my failed aural skills :/
●adoreii !!!
●thsat's a bad assed Zelda tat on dude's arm.
●Oh, my bad... 6:13 "that's Benny" ... nope ... 6:14 THAT'S DEFINITELY HAMMSTER IN DISGUISE!!!
●When did Richard Hammond cut and dye his hair and start singing in a boyband? And he's better at playing the piano than May! WTF?
●Or D A Bm G
●E, B, C#, A. Mistake there.
●I think they're playing E, F#, C#,A actually.
●Like if you love when he says ''motherfuckin'' bird-plane :D
●No I think the reason is YOU posted THAT comment...
●They disliked because of "i'm a mother*ckin birdplane"
●those how hate this can go and fuck them self
●D A Bm G !!!!!
●A major, E major, F# minor, D major. There are sections where they hold the chords longer and sections where they play through them faster, but it's always these 4 chords in this order.
●because you posted this comment.
●love it
●Totally man
●Depends on what key you're in. Here are some popular ones! For the key of D play: D, A, Bm, G For the key of G play: G, D, Em, C For the key of C play: C, G, Am, F For the key of F play: F, C, Dm, Bflat In music theory it's called a "I V vi IV" progression, meaning major first, major fifth, minor sixth, and major fourth. The other really popular progression is "I IV V", for example C, F, G. So if you know four chords on the guitar you can at least kinda play a whole lotta songs. Have fun!
●the big buy sounds like bamse (a danish singer) :D anyone agree? :D
●wherever you will go, by the calling.. EVERY SONG IS IN THE DESCRIPTION !
●458 people dont have a 4 chord song
●Epicly awkward when they do the song far better than the real!!!

Studio recording of The Axis of Awesome's "4 Chords". The song that proves that all you need to be a pop star is four simple chords. The audio is accompanied with a slide show of the original artists.
●I can't believe this re-uploads has so many views, you are literally taking money away from Axis of Awesome.
●What are the 4 chords?
●For the songs after Take On Me (3:15), the progression changes to VIm, IV, I, V. It's the same progression, just starting on the minor sixth chord first.
●@Cataphract Slideshow excellent, thanks!
●MISINFORMATION ALERT! Various comments here state that this is a I,IV,V,IV progression.For all you poor sods trying to get I,IV,V,IV to sound right -- you won't. A bread and butter songwriting progresssion, this is a I,V,VIm,IV (Tonic, Dominant, Relative Minor, Subdominant). The Axis of Awesome 4 Chords "song" is a brilliant piece of work that should be referenced by every music teacher. In this key (E) it's E, B, C#m A. For similar fun try I,VIm,IV,V -- less contemporary but very familiar?
●Well what if they didn't only use 4 chords for full version
●Because not the whole song is those 4 chords, most of the time. They just pick out bits from each song that can be sung to those chords.
●Are you serious? God
●Brilliant. My daughter showed me this - she was played the video in her music lesson. I wish music had been this fun in the olden days!
●Very very well put for those who do not understand - well done! (Music degree student - England)
●My music theory isn't as good as it should be, so maybe someone can expand on what I say. Basically, there are 7 notes in a major scale. For example, in the key of C, the 7 notes are C, D, E, F, G, A, B. If you assign each one a numerical value, you wind up with I (C), II (D), III (E), IV (F), V (G), VI (A), VII (B). If you play a I, IV, V, IV progression in C, you play the chords C, F, G, F. The same rules apply to all other keys, but they are more complicated because they have sharps and flats
●A I IV V IV progression is read one four five four. It means you take your chord, lets go simple, a C major in the key of C, and assign each position in that key a value, 1 through 7. So a I triad (in C) would be CEG, IV is FAC, V is GBD, and back to FAC (IV). That progression sounds very nice, as shown in the video, and is very common in the pop genre of music. There is more to music than most people think :D
●Can you explain what that means?
●It's just a I, IV, V, IV progression. What chords you play doesn't matter.
●Thank you Axis of Awesome, I will try to avoid these songs (most of them I already do) when I am around people who play music. I wonder if anyone has ever got these 4 chords stuck in their head. Oh wait, yes, there it is. Damn you Axis of Awesome.
●Jessie J. Price tag. Jason mraz I'm yours. The middle section of 'you're the one that I want' from grease ("you better shape up...")
●It's amazing how many of these songs that actually took out when they added to this song in 2011...and the new version is even longer!
●not quite
●What chords are they?
●Pachelbels Canon
●1:35 He stole Morphius' Glasses!!!!!!!
●Excellent... fallait y penser :)
●some of these are not in the same key as shown here...however, yes, I-V-VI-IV is in EVERYTHING
