When the sus4 chord resolves to a major triad! 😳
SUSSY
I love that, god damn.
that’s a bit sussy
Unfunny
I personally like it more when it resolves to a minor triad.
I was suspended a lot in high school. It did bring tension.
I pray your situation was resolved.
you mean "de tension"
Were you hot for da teacher to relieve da tension?
Mike Roberti very very witty, I was also suspended for various years in high school. The infusion here is “hi” or hiatus.
Sounds like you needed more G sus in your life : )
This was two years ahead of its time, incredible.
Got a new laptop, I've heard it's pretty good for making moving music.
It's an Asus.

Sometimes listening to you I feel like I'm back in chemistry class and feeling overwhelmed
I get that feeling too: stuff goes by too fast for me in these videos, and it's like being given a homework assignment at the end of class :-)
My guitar mentor taught me three important things about learning the guitar:
1. You will never completely master the guitar.
2. If you remember 20% of what I teach you, you're a genius.
3. Get comfortable with being uncomfortable.
This was after I expressed that I felt like I was "drowning" in an infinite sea of things that I might never learn or ever use.
Once I accepted that complete mastery is impossible, and that I won't remember it all, I began to relax and ended up learning more. Remaining overwhelmed will lead you to a situation known as "Mathematics Anxiety," where the anxiety actually gets in the way of your learning.
For beginners, take in as much of what Rick says as possible. Should you ever start formal studies, you'll encounter things that you've seen or heard about before. A lot of it is just assigning labels to things you may have already known.
Best of luck.
DrumWild thanks. In my case, this stuff is quite a bit beyond the music classes I took 30 years ago while getting my computer science degree. Old dog new tricks time...

@@aarnimustakallio7769 yeah.
Rick, you are by far the easiest to listen to music teacher on youtube. Your lessons are so succinct and easy to digest that I have learned something every time I watch!
Among Us ruined this chord. I'm so sorry.
Lol
I'm Rick's cousin what you said?
Oh no, E flat 11. Don’t tell Adam Neely
Good one :D
It wasn't Eb Major 11, it was just a sus ;) the notation was off
How to not suck at music...
B A S S
hello....SSSsssllaappperrrs 👋
I don't understand half of the things he's saying, but his charisma and enthusiasm is more than enough to keep my attention
Sorry I know I'm a year late but I can explain it.
A "suspended chord" basically removes the 3rd note in the chord, and replaces it with another note depending on the number at the end.
For example,
A minor consists of A, C, E.
Let's say we make it Asus4.
It would be
A, *D*, E.
Because the "4" at the end notifies us that the third note should be replaced with the 4th note. (Note after C)
I like when you show the notation in addition to the chord names! :)
twstdelf
Yes! Show the notation
i wish my brain could keep up with rick ...i've been augmented by the tension of the suspension modulating towards a resolution of consonance.
Lol don't be diminished👌
😂😂😂
That's a _minor_ problem....
Wow, great video! I love the variety of examples and explanations.
It is great that you two respect each other enough to comment on the other's videos. I am subscribed to both of your channels. Is there any chance of you two collaborating on a video together? Just asking
Do tell him.
Doesn't Angie stand out though? What a beautiful song...
great movie music example
Hi Nahre!!!
guys whatever you do, do NOT sort these comments by new! 😳
in most cases. when peoples see your comments. they sort comments by new to see your comments.. so rip

U so sussy
Love your videos Rick.....I have no idea what the f%^k you're talking about musically most of the time but I still love watching.keep em comin : )
That's what I love about Rick. I used to be into learning music theory but haven't kept up with it in years and Rick's way of explaining things in a nice way for those who might not have a background in music theory.
That's the good thing, eventually, you start to understand more and more.
Very true, Rick has introduced me to tons of concepts. And especially what I like to think of as a "contemporary approach" to music theory.
personally, I love his videos, but they aren't good for beginners
Sounds like we all need to get the Beato Book.
Rick Beato can pack for more musical enlightenment, inspiration and clarity in a twelve minute video than seems humanly possible. You have to marvel at his enthusiasm.
The fact that I now know what a sus chord is is hard to believe, before watching Rick's channel I knew absolutely nothing.
I thought I knew. I was mistaken. 🙂
Same here.
"Oh, so you're studying music? Name the impostor"
The tension created by SUS chords is the tension of uncertainty. It's as if, for a moment, you could be in a different key than you thought you were, or at least there is some ambiguity. The movement to resolution removes our uncertainty and lands us in a securely unambiguous place that relieves the tension of uncertainty.
Well said.
Living Beings Not so much uncertainty as anticipation for me...
Yeah, and that Isus4 = IVsus2 = VQ inversionary thing can set up some cool modulations/resolutions, sometimes to surprisingly remote areas. You get three chords, all tonally ambiguous with their own set of resolutions, for the price of one, I like to think.
John Foster Yeah, that’s what I thought! It’s similar to the tritone substitution, just like a black hole speedway junction to far away keys.
No for me it's the tension of asymmetry.
If you didn't know notes are frequencies of equal temperaments. All major chords have a similar frequency ratio and major chords have one too. They feel balanced because the lowest and highest notes of the chord are at the strongest interval the perfect fifth. It's so strong that using only root and fifth is called "power chord". The 3rd is placed as much symmetrically as possible between the two. It's either a bit below (minor) or a bit above (major) the perfect symmetrical middle frequency. But it's never perfect because there's no perfect symmetry between 7notes as it's an odd number. This slight asymmetry is what creates emotions in music.
All minor/major chords of a scale have a distinct feel because of the different root note they're based on. But even tough they have a distinct sound they all feel orderly and right in their place. When you play a sus it's a différent ratio and you break the symetrical balance.
Just like looking at thing all ordered perfectly and someone moves something over your brain wants thing to be in order again. It's used in color theory and in photography/cinema framing composition. Even clueless people will feel it even tough they don't know or can't explain. They will say it's subconscious, just like they will "feel" small character in a movie is the bad guy when the creators put many subtle clues of cinematic language to get us to think that. They can use it to play with us too.
the other day a guy carrying a bible came up to me in the street and asked, "Son, have you found Gsus yet?" ... and I was like yeah, just omit the major third and play a perfect 4th or major 2nd instead....
This should be getting way more attention than it really is...hahahahahahahahaha
This comment needs more likes.
Magisterial that comment! You got that Bible basher sussed!
Technically a gsus is strictly the 4th. Gsus2 is always notated as sus2 while sus4 can be just “sus”
Today I learnt that the most talented musicians are hardly ever famous.
IM GOING TO FUCKING LOSE IT
Gods favorite guitar chord ....Gsus
Sus what???? Gotta put a number after that SUS.

WHEN THE CHORDS ARE SUSSY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM BUM, BUM BUM BUM, BUM BUM
The first sus chord I ever played was a Dsus4, when a friend taught me a brand-new song by Rush called _Fly By Night._ Been a fan of these types of chords ever since.
Rush are the kings of sus4/2 chords
I wrote a song with the 4-3 resolution about 25+ yrs ago, and I'm just beginning the process of getting it recorded, having shelved it for no reason. This SUS Chords video is a great lesson.
Rick - you are an incredible teacher!!... period.... Many Thanks for sharing your time.
3:18 That Csus#4 sounds so emotional when the chord C transitions to Csus#4 (or Cadd9 then Cadd9#11). That's why I really love Lydian scale/mode so much, it just sounds so ethereal.😍
Csus#4 is so beautifully sus😳
When he says “eMOtion” and “eMOtive” I swear I can almost hear him say amogus
I sure do love when the chord is ඞ
I play a lot of stuff never resolving the sus chords. Makes the harmonies airy and open. Love it.
I actually prefer it, when they don't resolve. To me, it makes the tension created ramp up to desperation, so to speak. I don't know how else to describe it.
When the chord is sus 🤨
Thank you to the people who DID NOT make any Among Us jokes.
Give the SUS of you profile picture?
So that's what it was??? Jeez, people need to get a life haha
doesn't your comment counts in some way?
I no respect anime profile picture users.
that's quite suspicious
When the imposter is sus!😳
I have no idea what you are talking about. And have no knowledge of music theory, but I am fascinated. Definitely.
I had to teach myself guitar and piano as a teenager. So I guess it is time to learn some music theory.
I never understood why everyone always told me "you sus! You fkg sus, man!"
I think they meant they really liked my sus chords.
Weird cause i played drums.
Ba' dum tsh
you kinda sus ngl 😳
this man was way ahead from his time
Wait a minute
2 YEARS AGO
this man living in the future
AirPod shotty you lookin real sussy
"All these suspended chords act like suspensions"
lol that's a good point. I'll keep that in mind.
SUSSSS?!?!?! AMOGOS
I hate the internet
Pain

I've always liked suspended chords, especially the sus2 & sus4 (both with and without the dominant 7th). To be honest, this video is the first time I've heard the sus4/9 explained. You nailed it!
Wonderful job on this video!
He did not know what comedy would this video bring in two years
What an incredible teacher! When I first starting watching Rick’s channel I understood so little of what he was talking about, but less than a year later and I actually can follow along. Unbelievably, I understood a lot of this video. Absolutely the best music channel on RUclips for those interested in theory. And the Beato Book is an incredible resource for anyone, even a relative beginner like me. Thank you, Rick, for your fantastic content.
If they are good enough for Alex Lifeson, they are good enough for me!
My thoughts exactly! the sus2 is pretty much his go-to chord, it ends up everywhere in Rush
When I was beginning playing guitar I always thought he was playing some secret complex chords and could not figure out. But I knew I was hearing something more than power chords and big bar chords LOL
@@RichTones same here
The hell we went thru during rock and roll. We are thankful you are still there!
Alex Lifeson of Rush uses suspended chords pretty much in every song. He's a master of them in rock.
Rick Beato - Bonnie Raitt's version of "I Can't Make You Love Me," is a CLINIC on suspensions and dissonance, especially with the chords of Bruce Hornsby. That should make your series, "WHAT MAKES THIS SONG GREAT!" Amazing work. I'm a classical organist, but my first love was jazz and rock, so these videos are great tutorials.
Great call, such a perfect song!
When the chord is sus
Can't believe you spoke about suspended chords and not a single mention of Zappa!
Love the videos by the way!
SUSpicious
imposter among us sussy
Yes, I do love the Sus chords very much. I was writing a song for acoustic guitar and a violin, and I thought that the song needed some color: replaced a few Am chords with Asus2's and boom, it worked like charm
My ability to understand any of what he says is suspended.
yeah his "theory" is basically him playing some random chords on the piano and saying what he plays
not really for people who don't know any theory
@@KamilDeKerel Sadly, that's true. His videos are great, but as a beginner, I find them hard to follow.
topic here is like 4th year university. you already know prerequisite s
I’ve been watching for a long time, and am just catching on to a lot of this. Another good channel is New Jazz.
I am going to fucking lose my mind
This is one of the best videos on sus chords I've ever seen, thanks for making this.
All the sus puns on here still never Csus to amaze me.
It's not just your knowledge, it's your passion.
Is amogus reffrense? 😰😱👺🙉🥵
Rick, the way you explain music theory, you remind me so much like my former music teacher. I didn't go for music lessons on how to play an instrument (even though it was supplemented with one of my chromatic harmonicas). I went for classes on how to read music, which I feel is vital to actually learning songs correctly. In the harmonica groups I'm in, they usually use tablature. I'm always vocal, calling them cheaters because using tabs is actually cheating, and they never provide any real information as to how a person should correctly read a musical score, and put it into practice.
Amogus
rick beato is a true gift to the world lf self taught youtube musicians. i love how you are an absolute stone cold genius, but you are humble and unassuming in the best way. i think this attitude is what has led you to a path of lifelong learning and mastery
Would love to hear you do a video specifically on John Barry and what he achieved through his James Bond scores... Goldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, & On Her Majesty's Secret Service all have terrific scores. And yes I was born in 1993!
YAH...great idea. Beato: Analyse that bad boys compositions in the Bond films, so distinct.
I love JB's Fun City. Great jazz.
I tend to resolve sus chords onto different chords. For example, you can do V-Vsus4-I. You already have the pull of the dominant chord that wants to resolve onto the tonic, and adding that sus4 in between makes the pull even stronger. It has similar function to a V7, but while a V7 almost always resolves to the tonic, the sus chord could go anywhere, and I love that musical suspense.
Oh Rick we wanted you to shred that Stairway To Heaven solo haha ! Awesome video
Denied!
Damn right we did!!
This content is super complete, you start learning about the structure and a few moments later you are modulating, that's kind of insane
Always loved the sound of a sus chord!
A sus chord can roll into any number of chords by just adding a note. Asus2: add a C and its Aminadd9: add an F and its a Fmaj7#11: add a G and its a G69
G69? Gee, that might well be my favourite chord...
5:25 flying in a blue dream
2:35 if i could fly
Exactly!
I love sus chords because they are an easy way to add flavor to regular chord strumming. You can add lots of different patterns to keep interest
I would Love a series Where rick Goes back in history and Breaksdown dark age music and the middle ages from everything in Europe across the middle east to the continent of asia and back to the native tribal people in the Americas I feel like this type of music has so much more to learn from everything from their hyms and rasps to the undeniable melodies All the dark and bright sounding qualities, Rick would be the man for this.
Great idea.

I love watching you, brother. I am 55 years old and I am right there with you. I learn so much every time I watch and listen 🎶
Chicago Drill Music is mostly built off of a 4-3 or 2-3 Suspension resolution, giving it that signature classical sound.
What's a song in this genre I should look up? Sounds cool
Seth Johnson Classics like like i dont like and faneto are a good place to start
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THATS SO SUS!!!!!!!!! I'M GOING INSANE!!!!!!!! HE IS THE IMPOSTER AND SUPER SUS!!!!!!!!!! AMOGUS REFRENCE!!!!!!!
Yes?
The raucous ride up to a suspended chord and its devasting resolution is a large part of what made me fall in love with Baroque music.
Amazing as always Rick, I'll be waiting for the next class on sus chords.
This video was definitely a _little_ bit above my skill level (right now,) but since I have no formal training, this was an incredible introduction to Sus chords; allowing me much greater variation and versatility in my playing! Thank you so much Rick. Great content, as always!
Sus chords are awesome....especially dominant 7 sus 4's!
Rick, you are awesome. Just wanted to have that said. It’s amazing to see all this musical talent combined in one super happy enthusiastic person.

I love it how you break down every note , every chord you give more clarification its not just a song it what goes into that song Wow we you made me open my ears up ..more jah love to you
Muy bien explicado rick. Love this video. Greetings from Chile
That 12 string acoustic sounds so gorgeous
*Idk man, seems a little sus to me...*
Brilliant, Rick. So often I used these chords not knowing why they work in my composition. It just feels, or sounds right for what the song dictates. You provide the music theory that I wish I had learned. Thanks.
2 years ago they had no idea we would be in this situation
these videos are getting better and better
Double suspension = Ára bátur by Sigur Rós! (From min. 4:30) I recommend you listen to it with earphones.
I joined the club today!!! So much great stuff here😀🎶🤘
My favorite use of Sus chords is in "Bargain" by The Who.
Substance D Mine is Natural science by Rush (sus2)
I never knew music was that complicated. I write some songs but I do it intuitively, but I dont play instruments. Thanks Rick. I don't quite get everything but it is illuminating.
Oh no.
Love it in The trill is gone... It makes it all for the song.
00:54 All I can think of with those chords is: Lionel Richie:
"You laughed at me. You said you never needed me. I wonder if you need me now. We played the games that people played. We made our mistakes along the way. Somehow, I know, deep in my heart, you needed me. Cuz I needed you so desperately... we were too blind to see... "
Am I the only child of the 1980s here? :)
Please make more videos like this. 10 mins, very informative and easy to comprehend. Thanks Rick!
I admit it! God help me! I’m a sus- aholic!
Marc Scordato
Me too Lol
Especially as a YTP fan
^I was looking for this comment
My brother just pray to Gsus and ask for help
You and Alex Lifeson of Rush...
