Question:And or what are the most common keys popular music is written in ?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: And or what are the most common keys popular music is written in ?

Music that is recorded is most likely transcribed in the key of C,for pop and the like,Even if its written in a different key.

This is because the feeling the artist who recorded the piece
is most likely able to be reproduced by other musicians,in the key of C.

However much of the "passion/feeling" can be be lost due to the key change.So when that is the issue it is necessary to tune to the key that the original piece was written in.

I hope this helps,but truthfully,key changes are only a problem/issue for stringed instruments,cause of the layout of the notes(It becomes harder)to accomplish the chord progressions due to the reliance of open notes.

By the way=hi how are you doing?

I think C and E but in punk you yell and scowl and in pop you coo. In folk you just strum a guitar and hum a story. Neil Young wasn't exactly the Mariah Carey of rock and folk.

People sing in all keys, but most songs are mostly in the middle C key.

E, C and G

Professional singers usually sing in Eb or Bb

Amateurs or rockers, whatever fits them in the song
