Harmony analysis

Bora Öztoprak – Seni Seviyorum: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Gm and ends on D7. Its chords belong to both Bb major and Gm, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

Bb major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

  • 7 = A (leading tone, pulls home)
  • 4 = Eb (the note that leans on the 3rd)

Minor view

G minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

  • b6 = Eb (the minor's melancholy)
  • b7 = F (natural-minor colour)
  • #7 = F# (harmonic-minor leading tone from the V chord)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the G minor side because it opens on Gm, Gm is heard 5 times against 1 for Bb and the major V chord points straight at Gm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Bb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Bb or to Gm; comparing both readings is a practice of its own.

Every chord of the key, listed 1 to 7 separately for each key. Chords played in the song show how often they appear; chords from outside the scale sit next to their own degree.

Analysis

The key pair is Bb major and its relative G minor (2 flats). 6 different chords appear 37 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. The major V of Gm brings the harmonic-minor leading tone, giving the minor side a sharper, more dramatic pull; seen from Bb, the same D7 is V7/vi, a secondary dominant heading for Gm.

Chord movement

  1. Cm7 D7 Bbii7 → V7/vi Gmiv7 → V7iv → V ×5
  2. D7 Gm BbV7/vi → visecondary resolution GmV7 → iharmonic-minor cadence ×3

The move to watch is Cm7 → D7, heard 5 times. From the Gm side it is iv7 → V7 (iv → V: the minor side's tension builder); from the Bb side it reads ii7 → V7/vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

  • Bb major pentatonic and G minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Bb – C – D – F – G): start from Bb for a brighter phrase, from G for a bluesier one.
  • Over Dm7, land on D, F, A — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Cm7, land on C, Eb, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over Ebmaj7, land on Eb, G, Bb — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • When D7 comes, swap the scale's F for F#: that single note is the harmonic-minor sound of the chord.

The song on the circle of fifths

  • Played in the song — chord of the key

    The song's harmonic story

    Starting on Gm, the song gives away its key from the very first bar. The backbone is Dm7, Cm7, Ebmaj7, Gm — iii7–ii7–IVmaj7–vi from the Bb side, v7–iv7–VImaj7–i from the Gm side. D7 is the interesting twist: in Bb it is a chromatic chord (V7/vi), while in Gm it becomes the dominant (V7) that makes the minor side sound so determined. Keep an ear on Cm7 → D7 (ii7 → V7/vi in Bb, iv7 → V7 in Gm): iv → V — the minor side's tension builder. Ending on D7, the song seals Bb as home.
