Harmony analysis
German Montero – Amantes Escondidos: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Bb and ends on F7. Its chords belong to both Bb major and Gm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
G minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Eb (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = F (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Bb major side because it opens on Bb and Bb is heard 11 times against 5 for Gm. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from G minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.

Chord movement
- Cm F7 Bbii → V7ii → V Gmiv → VII7 ×9
- F7 Bb BbV7 → Iauthentic cadence GmVII7 → III ×8
The move to watch is Cm → F7, heard 9 times. From the Bb side it reads ii → V7 (ii → V: the classic preparation of the dominant); from the Gm side it is iv → VII7. 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 Bb, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Cm, land on C, Eb, G — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over F7, land on F, A, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Bb lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The backbone is Bb, Cm, F7, Gm — I–ii–V7–vi from the Bb side, III–iv–VII7–i from the Gm side. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Cm → F7 (ii → V7 in Bb, iv → VII7 in Gm): ii → V — the classic preparation of the dominant. It closes on F7, letting the Bb side have the last word.
This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
