The I–V–vi–IV progression is a common chord progression popular across several genres of music. It involves the I, V, vi, and IV chords; for example, in the key of C major, this would be: C–G–Am–F.〔Bennett, Dan (2008). ''The Total Rock Bassist'', p. 63. ISBN 978-0739052693〕 The V is often replaced by iii ("Price Tag"), III ("If We Ever Meet Again" chorus), ii ("Halo"), I ("Doesn't Mean Anything"), II ("Try Too Hard" by P!nk), or IV ("I Gotta Feeling"). A 2009 song by the comedy group The Axis of Awesome, called "Four Chords", parodied the ubiquity of the progression in popular music. It was written in E major (thus using the chords E major, B major, C# minor, and A major) and was subsequently published on YouTube. As of August 2015, the most popular version has been viewed over 35 million times. ==Variations== A common form of the progression, vi–IV–I–V, was dubbed the sensitive female chord progression by ''Boston Globe'' Columnist Marc Hirsh.〔Hirsh, Marc. ("Striking a Chord" ), ''The Boston Globe'', December 31, 2008.〕 In C major this would be Am–F–C–G (Am–F–C–G/B voicing is very common in modern pop music). Hirsh first noticed the chord progression in the song "One of Us" by Joan Osborne.〔(Rundown 3/4: "Sensitive Female Chord Progression" ), ''Here and Now'', March 4, 2009, wbur.org.〕 He claims he then began to notice the chord progression in many other songs. He named the progression because he claimed it was used by many members of the Lilith Fair in the late 1990s.〔 The vi–IV–I–V progression has been associated with the heroic in many popular Hollywood movies and movie trailers, especially in films released since 2000.〔Murphy, Scott (2014). 'A Pop-Music Progression in Recent Popular Movies and Movie Trailers', ''Music, Sound, and the Moving Image'' 8.2 (Autumn): 141-162.〕 The chord progression is also used in the form IV–I–V–vi, as in songs such as "Umbrella" by Rihanna,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Unsupported Browser or Operating System )〕 and "Down" by Jay Sean〔"(Down )", MusicNotes.com. 〕 or as V–vi–IV–I as in "Wannabe" by The Spice Girls, "Angels" by Robbie Williams, "Higher Love" by Steve Winwood, and "Gypsy" by Lady Gaga. Numerous bro-country songs followed the chord progression, as demonstrated by Greg Todd's mash-up of several bro-country songs in an early 2015 video.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Six songs, same tune?
