The Sensitive Female Chord Progression

Song list

This is the list of every song I've been able to find (and confirm)
that uses the SFCP. Found one that's not here? Leave it in the
comments, or email me.
(Songs with "*" use the chords in the SFCP but aren't quite
canonical, in the sense that they don't repeat in the same way as
the others in the brief time that they pop up.)
1967
*The Doors - "Crystal Ship"
Scott McKenzie - "San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In
Your Hair)"
1974
*UFO - "Doctor Doctor"
1975
*Joan Baez - "Diamonds & Rust"

How can you wish you'd thought of a name other than the
SFCP? Brilliant!

I love the blog, just found it, although I read the article
some time back. Some additional songs for the list:
The bridge to aeroplane over the sea, by neutral milk
hotel (title track to an amazing album) is in pretty classic
SFCP, e-C-G-D.
Also, "Midnight Radio", the epic closing number from the
queer rock musical Hedwig and the Angry Inch is an
interesting variation - The expected fifth chord is a
dominant 7th (a-F-C-G7, the sensitive transsexual CP?"),
and after the first iteration, the cycle gets caught up
between the 4th and tonic, before eventually resolving
into the V7 and the chorus.

"Freefallin" by Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers. Pretty
much textbook.

Great blog! I was working up in Methuen MA last winter,


read the article and cut it out, but now can't find it - "One
of Us" and "Building a Mystery" are two of my favorite
songs (I started thinking someone should do a mashup of
them like the Oasis "Wonderwall" Green Day "Boulevard of
Broken Dreams" mashup that I love) (hmmm, I should
google that - maybe someone has). Anyway, I decided to
make a Pandora station based on it, but needed more
than those two seed songs. I googled "song structure One
of Us Building a Mystery" and got your blog! Thanks so
much for the great list - now I can seed my station with
several and see what else pops up!

RovingWeaver August 29, 2009 at 12:55 PM


Not sure the Pandora station is going to work... unless
Smells Like Teen Spirit is really a SFCP... I guess I can't
get more complicated than "minor key tonality" as far as
that goes.

@Rob: "Free Fallin'" doesn't work, actually. It starts on the


I (F), not the vi (B m). In fact, I'm not sure there's a
Bm anywhere in the song.
Reply

EJ November 9, 2009 at 2:03 PM


Is it just a coincidence or is the progression getting more
popular...it seems from the list here its really catching on,
becoming the I iv ii V, maybe?
Reply

Naferius December 27, 2009 at 5:56 PM


don't forget the numa numa song.
(actually, most of it is IV-I-V-vi, but that's close enough)

Also, "White Flag" (Dido) uses this to different effect as IV


I V vi. Interestingly, this is the only case I noticed before
that I would consider "sensitive female". :-)
Why does Iggy Pop's Passenger get an asterisk? I thought
of that as the prototype for this progression.

"Pieces" by Sum 41 is another good one.
And some people are blaming Korean artist for stealing off
of "Poker Face" which I find ridiculous. Two SFCP song I
know are "Wedding Dress" by Tae Yang and "One" by Epik
High.

It basically covers SFCP starting at 3:17. Also has tons of
songs if you flip SFCP's vi-IV-I-V to I-V-vi-IV, such as
Jason Mraz's I'm Yours or the Beatles' Let It Be or
Journey's Don't Stop Believing.
Also if you put the vi at the end to turn it from vi-IV-I-V to
IV-I-V-vi, you get songs like Rihanna's Umbrella and Jay
Sean's Down.

I realized that my interest in this chord progression is
mostly in the somewhat darker "SF2" classification (one
chord per bar). A couple more of those are:
Soul In Isolation, by The Chameleons (1986); also
reprised at the end of the album.
The Crow, by DJ Food (2000)

found this over a year ago. I realized that my meditation


playlist had a lot of SFCP songs in it and wanted to find
more, so I came back - I've never heard of most of these
songs, but hey, at least I have a lot to choose from...

Pandora gives me a lot of stuff by Five for Fighting on my

the chord analyzing. :-)

Someone asked why Iggy Pop's The Passenger gets an
asterisk. First of all, the tonic is Am, which thus means it's
not vi-IV-I-V, but i-VI-III-VII(in aeolian/natural minor).
Second, the chord progression is actually 8 bars, it goes
Am-F-C-G7-Am-F-C-E.
And I'd like to add RHCP's Don't Forget Me from the album
By The Way released in 2002. Live at Slane castle to be
viewed here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDAiYlZDZKU
Flea just pounds power chords on his bass in A-F-C-G. The
_whole_ song.
Oh and one more that I found the other day, The Whig's I
Am For Real. C#m-E-B-A if I'm correct, but I'm not too
sure on it. Decide for yourselves:

I correct my previous post. Obviously, I Am For Real is not
SFCP... Same chords, but different progression. Mixed
things up there... need to get some sleep, before I mix
other things up...

I'm really not getting the significance here. I think the fact
that there are soooo many songs (as demonstrated by this
list and those suggested by posters) that use this chord
progression would seem to indicate to me that it's nothing
particularly special or unusual. Certainly not unusual
enough to have an entire blog devoted to. I mean, I'm not
great at music theory, but I know enough about music to
know that there's a limited number of chord progressions
used in Western music and so, naturally, some of them are
