Licks & Riffs : Delta Goodrem - Not Me, Not I


We get a lot of requests for Delta Goodrem. The track 'Not Me, Not I' features a nice piano introduction which we'll have a look at here.

We'll start by looking at the chord progression used in the introduction, which is the same one used in the song's chorus. It's in E minor/G major, and uses a D# dminished chord to return to the E minor start:

Give those chords a bit of a ripple, and you're half way to the full Goodrem sound:

(Tip: Try playing G and F sharp just before each chord change to sound really like the original)

For the verse, the main chord pattern is similar, this time using a B major chord to return to the E minor.

Interestingly, Delta's other big hit 'Lost Without You' features a very similar chord progression in the chorus:
