Anybody notice that Q’s TRIP is a JAZZ CADENCE? iim V7 I / 2-5-1 Key of C
It is in key of C cause the V chord is identified: G7. It breaks down like this: !!m = iim (the exclamation points are really just the letter ‘i’ upside down twice - this is the symbol for the 2-minor chord in diatonic harmony) >G7 = G7 >> V = V (the symbol for the 5 chord) >> JxZN = JxZZ (rotate the N 90 degrees clockwise and you will see the Z - ‘x’ is a variable in mathematics and seems safe to say it stands in for the letter ‘a’ - giving you the word JaZZ) >> C = the I chord (also called the tonic and it identifies the KEY center - it could also stand for the word ‘cadence’ - since the chord G7 has already clearly identified the KEY) >> I = I (this signifies the I chord previously identified as C. The full cadence is >>> Dm7 G7 C <<<.
There is an embedded theme here that MIRRORS the Whoopi G movie JUMPING JACK FLASH. In that movie she is given the name of the song and needs to find the ‘KEY.’ In Q’s trip we are given the ‘KEY’ which seems to suggest: Find the song. The movie JUMPING JACK FLASH is about a British spy op stranded in E Europe looking for an exit contact. He hacks into Whoopi’s system and flashes ‘knock knock’ on her screen. She answers “who’s there” and he says “JUMPING JACK FLASH” and then invites her to enter a Key code to his secure server. Using the Jack Flash clue she attempts many combinations but fails repeatedly until suddenly the light goes on - at which time she says to herself “the key IS the key.” Once she enters the key in which the song was written the server opens. The spy’s name in the movie is JACK. The actor playing the spy is a guy named JONATHAN.
The song, ‘JUMPING JACK FLASH’ was written by the Rolling STONES and released in 1969 on the album ‘LIVE’R THAN YOU’LL EVER B.’ The lyrics go: “ I WAS BORN IN A CROSSFIRE HURRICANE….BUT I’M ALL RIGHT NOW.” [CROSSFIRE HURRICANE?]
TRIP CODE = FIND THE SONG = JUMPING JACK FLASH = ROLLING STONES = LYRICS >[CROSSFIRE HURRICANE]
TRIP CODE = FIND THE SONG = JUMPING JACK FLASH = ROLLING STONES = KEY + STONE[s] >KEYSTONE (key+stone - see q-post 269 )
MIRROR = FIND THE KEY = KEY CENTER OF SONG JUMPING JACK FLASH = ACCESS TO SERVER = EXIT CONTACT FOR JACK >>JACK RETURNS SAFE
JUMPING JACK FLASH = SONG = SONG [STRUCTURE] >BRIDGE
JUMPING JACK FLASH MOVIE = JACK + JON >JOHN JOHN
JACK FLASH >JFK + J_A_C_K_
The BRIDGE is critical when songwriting. The BRIDGE section connects the future of a song to it’s past - the beginning of the song to it’s destination - It allows one to cross into new territory and then come back again. The BRIDGE unifies the different sections within the structure while maintaining its harmonic integrity. The BRIDGE is usually referred to as the B section within the AABA structure.
The delta between the trip changes lands on Q post #128 which is the “look there or here or there” post and poses the question: “what is keystone.”
