Making something sound different and original from just 2 chords is very difficult! In music, simplicity and memorable is the most difficult thing to achieve.
...I played this song for my English students in Czechoslovakia because I think music facilitates the learning of English.....when a foreign singer sings an American song he/she will frequently not even have an accent. Music makes the words 'stick' in their minds.......'Better Be Good To Me' is one ripping great song....
God bless you. It's really so fuckin awesome that there are people like you... You're just so special, so much postive energy and desire to share the kndowledge. :) ps you could just hi-pass the low booming in the second part of the video ;p it's really easy. I see you have KRK's there, so you must know how to eq.
Brilliant writer. The Device album is full of top ten hits you've never heard.
I just listened to Heart Don't Fail Me Now this morning. This girl is on a different wavelength. She's AWESOME!!!
I love Holly's solo album. "Why Don'tcha Luv Me Like You Used To" still hits me in the feels.
Black velvet-Alannah Myles
That's awesome. I love hearing little gems like this about song-writing by songwriters...
Definitely one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Awesome
Great series of vidz Chris, very informative !!!
Holly is one of the most talented songwriters of her generation.
Never really even noticed that it was only two chords. Pretty amazing!
she's a brilliant songwriter
ASHER A If a 2 chord repetitive song makes her a Brilliant songwriter, then I'd love to know what a 3 chord song would rate in your thought process.
gotta be why that's a song that's loved by millions eh? how about that thought process...

@@peggyliu5756 to me, personally, it’s not about how many chords are there, but the song .. I think she did well with one
It's my pleasure sir.
I knew Lindsay was in good hands when she came out with her album a few years back.
Una grande Holly Knight!
lovely woman. love the clever pop music she writes.
Holly Knight is a genius.
@Poopa Scoopa Let’s see your list of hits?
@Poopa Scoopa Publisher. So an abuser of the creative process. Hack.
(Long dramatically drawn out gasp) I'm in love 😍😍😍😍😍

Thanks Marty!
Just 2 chords…..amazing
Holly cowrote with 'Better be good' with Mike Chapman, and Nicky Chinn.
nicky chin doesnt write anything, mike and holly wrote it.
It sounds a lot like Chapman & Chinn's "Kiss You All Over" as performed by Exile. Not that this is a bad thing.
Heroin by The Velvet Underground... Same two chords..
John Hawthorn lady Madonna by the Beatles, what I got by Sublime, and a ton more lol
@@fmbighair them too. haha
Thinking it sounds like VU
The band Spider did two great albums with her. But later other people use those songs to have hits, like Tina Turner and John Waite.
