[edit] "Barbara Ann"
- "'Barbara Ann' by the Beach Boys is a nice example of an effective three-chord song."

[edit] move to I-IV-V, change content
i was unpleasantly surprised that the first-fourth-fifth chord progression did not have its' own article, while first-second-fifth, which is much less notable (and not to mention an inversion of the former) does. anyway, three chord songs are pretty much already all first fourth fifths, at least in the context of this article. i say we trim this page down, move it to first fourth fifth (or I-IV-V per naming conventions), and add some content on the progessions' relevancy in popular music, starting with blues. what do you guys say?

[edit] Hotel Yorba
Hotel Yorba is almost entirely G C D7, but has an F for one or two beats, so I have removed it. 81.110.175.134 02:07, 28 July 2007 (UTC) O
[edit] Blues/Rock Structure Songs
I don't want to modify this article in any way, but I think that you should remove from the example "Heartbreak Hotel", as almost all Classic Rock and Blues songs are indeed three chord songs.
==I dont think any songs should be listed at all.
If you include Heartbreak Hotel, you could also include Jailhouse Rock, Hoochie Koochie Man, Red House, Johnny B. Goode... and any Chuck Berry, B.B. King or John Lee Hooker song you could imagine (for example). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.25.0.108 (talk) 09:05, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Punk Rock
Took out Punk Rock in See Also; it's often used as a particular slight against punk rock, when as noted, a great many songs in popular supergenres adhere to the format. Adding punk rock in the See Also list without discussing it in the context of the actual article (or listing other genres) seems more insulting than informative. 208.58.42.116 (talk) 12:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
