  • Chase the Bass, Catch the Chords: Hearing "Eight Days a Week"
    2026/07/17

    Can you hear what Paul McCartney's bass line is doing under "Eight Days a Week"? In this episode, we chase that bass line to uncover the chord progression driving the whole song — then take those same chords and go hunting for them in four other tunes, from bossa nova to hip-hop.

    You'll:

    • Sing the root notes of McCartney's bass line against the original recording
    • Test your ear by finding do and singing that same bass line over "Exactly Like You," "Take the A Train," "Forget You," and more
    • Close with a fully improvised vocal line over a stripped-down version of the progression — no solfège, no chord names, just your ear and your voice
