Today I’m taking a look at Machine Gun Kelly’s Bloody Valentine. I chose this song because it’s just so catchy! I also had a big pop punk phase when I was younger.
This song is seemingly simple. Three chords make up most of the song and the melody is made up from a handful of notes.
What I take from this song is a lesson on building a “catchy” melody and not relying on an extensive chord progression. Working with limitations is a great way to work the creative muscles
