Q: There is a beautiful moment in 'when i get older', at the lyrics '...then the song will sing me...'. I really love it but I am not sure what that is called. I want to say key change, is that right? My music knowledge is mostly centered around appreciating it, but would be nice to know what things are in case I need to explain it to someone else.
A: well, ..... sort of, yes, but, if we say that then we have to also admit that the exact same thing happened earlier, with 'here's a poem about rain.' The melody/chords etc is the same in both places. if i recall correctly, the main difference the second time around is the drums slam much harder, which has nothing to do with key
