Dave's 5 Hot Takes - Episode 7

Join musician and semi-pro comedian, Dave Barnes, as he explores some interesting perspectives on popular music on the first episode of 5 Hot Takes! On this episode, Dave covers hot takes on Christina Aguilera, Dawes, Elton John and Coldplay.

His hot takes include:

Hot Take 1: In Christina Aguilera’s “What A Girl Wants”, the chorus starts with the end of the phrase, while the middle of the chorus starts with the beginning of the phrase.

Hot Take 2: Taylor Goldsmith from Dawes is one of the best lyricists of this generation.

Hot Take 3: Elton John’s “Rocket Man” has an unconventional double strum guitar pattern that juxtaposes well with the musical thinking of 2020, which is centered on perfection and fine-tuning.

Hot Take 4: Dave’s favorite key change in all of rock music comes in Def Leppard’s “Armageddon It”.

Hot Take 5: “Yellow” by Coldplay and “I Can’t Make You Love Me” by Bonnie Raitt both have chord changes in the last waning seconds of the songs that catch you off guard.
