Swing
Must You Use The Word,"Love"?
Because so-o-o many songs have been written about Love,
song writers have often strived to introduce some
unexpected twist or POV to help their song stand out.
Must You Use The Word "Love"? is Ross's entry into that category.
​
Written during Ross's time at Jazz School, the song not only has lyrics
reflecting an unusual approach to Love,
but there is also a "weird chord",
namely a 'Minor Major Seventh Chord'
lurking in the Harmonic Structure --- can you hear it?
