The fantastic Axis of Awseome who first (I think) brought the 4 chord song to our ears and attention

This is Axis of Awesome performing on stage the 4 chord song - whilst reminding us that our heartstrings are very fickle and easily tugged. Fluidly moving from one chart topper to another but even throw in a advert.
Music is so emotive and it is really important to be reminded how easily our emotions can be stirred as well as money made by just 4 chords.
This is in relation to the previous video, a clip from Under the Silver Lake where a Hollywood songwriter dashes the ideals of Musical freedom and the songs that marked our lives so much it ends with catastrophic consequences,
