In this ordering, the progression ends with a double plagal cadence in the key of the dominant (in the Mixolydian mode) and could also be respelled ii–bVII–IV–I, opening with a backdoor turnaround. The chord progression is also used in the form IV–I–V–vi, as in songs such as "Umbrella" by Rihanna [5] and "Down" by Jay Sean. [6]

The term sixth chord refers to two different kinds of chord, the first in classical music and the second in modern popular music. [1] [2]The original meaning of the term is a chord in first inversion, in other words with its third in the bass and its root a sixth above it.
The most basic three-chord progressions of Western harmony have only major chords. In each key, three chords are designated with the Roman numerals (of musical notation): The tonic (I), the subdominant (IV), and the dominant (V). While the chords of each three-chord progression are numbered (I, IV, and V), they appear in other orders.
Shorter progressions may be derived from this by selecting certain specific chords from the progression through all seven diatonic chords. [2] The ii–V–I turnaround lies at the end of the circle progression, as does the vi–ii–V–I progression of root movement by descending fifths, which establishes tonality and also strengthens the key ...
A contrafact is a musical composition built using the chord progression of a pre-existing song, but with a new melody and arrangement.Typically the original tune's progression and song form will be reused but occasionally just a section will be reused in the new composition.
The most common dominant preparation chords are the supertonic, the subdominant, the V7/V, the Neapolitan chord (N 6 or ♭ II 6), and the augmented sixth chords (e.g., Fr +6). The circle progression features a series of chords derived from the circle of fifths preceding the dominant and tonic.
Cadential second-inversion chords are typically used in the authentic cadence I 6 4-V-I, or one of its variation, like I 6 4-V 7-I. In this form, the chord is sometimes referred to as a cadential 6 4 chord. The chord preceding I 6 4 is most often a chord that would introduce V as a weak to strong progression, for example, making -II-V into II-I 6
