The key change in The Zombies' “This Will Be Our Year” is the greatest of all time.

Well, you did say the “12 greatest key changes in POP music”… which I suppose is why I'm less than impressed. “Bohemian Rhapsody” is the only tune here with any real musical ambition, something for a musician to chew on. And Genesis could certainly offer up better key changes than the clumsy one in “Invisible Touch”… try the Trick of the Tail album, specifically the bridge in the tune “Eleventh Earl of Mar.”

BUZZ: I have always loved a big, massive, overwrought, juicy, chills-down-your-spine key change. Truth: I can't necessarily cry on cue, but if I need to get the waterworks flowing for a good stage cry, Man in the Mirror is my go-to song. That key change never fails me. Then again, I have every Bono rant from Rattle and Hum totally memorized. Artistic bombast, employed to overwhelm the senses of the witness as a way of capturing what words alone cannot—just nothing better that that in my book, ever since I was a kid.

BUZZ: Some folks in the biz have said that a songwriter will go for a key change (modulation) because they've run out of ideas to finish the song. Cheesy, but effective!

BUZZ: It might be cheating, but what about The Beatles' “Strawberry Fields Forever”? The key change was created by George Martin in the studio, true, (by melding the two versions John Lennon liked) but the song does change keys pretty radically halfway through.
