Harmony analysis
Calvin Harris – One Kiss (Dua Lipa): key and chord analysis
The song opens on Am and ends on G7. Its chords belong to both F major and Dm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
D minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Bb (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = C (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the F major side because F is heard 23 times while Dm never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — hearing the same chords from D minor is just as valid and teaches you something different.
Chord degrees: major and relative minor
Show the degrees above the chords — relative to F or to Dm; 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 F major and its relative D minor (1 flat). 5 different chords appear 80 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. G7, G step outside the scale as colour chords.
Chord movement
- Bbmaj7 Fmaj7 FIVmaj7 → Imaj7plagal cadence DmVImaj7 → IIImaj7 ×20
The move to watch is Bbmaj7 → Fmaj7, heard 20 times. From the F side it reads IVmaj7 → Imaj7 (plagal cadence: the soft 'amen' ending); from the Dm side it is VImaj7 → IIImaj7. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- F major pentatonic and D minor pentatonic are the same five notes (F – G – A – C – D): start from F for a brighter phrase, from D for a bluesier one.
- Over Fmaj7, land on F, A, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Am, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bbmaj7, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The first chord is Am; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are Fmaj7, Am, Bbmaj7, G7; read them as Imaj7–iii–IVmaj7–II7 in F or IIImaj7–v–VImaj7–IV7 in Dm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on Bbmaj7 → Fmaj7 (IVmaj7 → Imaj7 in F, VImaj7 → IIImaj7 in Dm): plagal cadence — the soft 'amen' ending. Ending on G7, the song seals F as home.
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.
