"Never gonna pick a key...I'm gonna modulate the song forever"

Rick... I was the girl singer on that gig - Beth Russo (now Graham)! What a fun summer gig that was - and I never quite realized then how tricky that tune was for you guys. Terrance Bruce was a wonder. Great vid - I enjoyed listening and remembering all that! @Rick Beato

Rick, I have been playing piano for 40 yrs. I put together a massive 80s playlist, found this song, downloaded the sheet music. I seriously had some wtf moments as I was sight reading. Took me 3 tries to get it down and after watching your video I was dying of laughter. I can’t imagine trying to memorize this song. Thx for the analysis!

This video is so epic that it's mentioned in the Wikipedia entry for the song! In a June 2021 video posted on YouTube, record producer Rick Beato called "Never Gonna Let You Go" "the most complex pop song of all time", due to its use of frequent key changes, inverted chords and unusual chord progressions.[4] Beato's discussion includes a detailed harmonic analysis of the Sérgio Mendes arrangement.

“Ok let’s play this new song tonight” “What are the chords” “All of them”
-
The genius of this song isn’t even the chords, it’s that they wrote a singable, hummable, memorable vocal melody over that!!!
-
You may know Sergio Mendes is brazilian and his major influence is "Bossa Nova" that has a lot of chords like those in its composition; even Mendes has done the arrangement, only. Names like Antonio Carlos Jobim, Carlos Lyra, João Gilberto, among other have been used these kind of sequence since the 60s and 70s. I'm Dilermando Nassif, from Belo Horizonte, MG. Brazil. I like your videos. You are a great musician. Congratulations.

Absolutely god-level jazz composition. So complex yet sounds so natural and so beautiful, especially with the male / female duet.
-
Back in the day, in our wedding band, we prayed that the bride and groom NEVER requested this to be the song for their first dance!
-
Am I the only non-musician here understanding like 10% of the technobabble but still enjoying this guy's enthusiasm tremendously?
-
That's why Sergio Mendes is still making music. Great music.
-
Brasil 66 era was sophisticated jazz/pop/bossa nova that charted all over the planet. His version of The Beatles’ Fool on a Hill is outstanding.
-
This is how you write a song without getting sued for plagiarism lol.
-
As complicated as these progressions are, it never SOUNDS crazy. Just flows. Weird!
-
I’ve watched this video several times since it came out. Each time I think, “How come I loved that song and never noticed all those chord changes?” I still don’t quite get how hard it is musically and yet how natural it feels - it just keeps opening up. Amazing song.
-
I love it with Rick playing the chords over it. It simplifies the complexity somewhat and hear it as a set of chards rather than listening to all the instruments intertwining. It let's me appreciate its fantastic nature.
-
Brazilian harmony is otherworldly. Once I asked a Brazilian guitarist where he had learned all those cool chords and progressions. His response: "In the streets"
-
This song can only be played by Guitar George, cause he knows all the chords.
-
Wonderful experience watching you play all those chords and having them there to read. Your comments and pleasant pure enjoyment of the complexity is delightful. Thank you Rick Beato. Just heard you for the first time about a week ago. 😊
