Question
You are a cellist who, after many repetitive performances, has come to despise Pachelbel’s (“PAH-kuhl-bells”) Canon in D and its iconic chord progression. Unfortunately for you, they’re everywhere. For 10 points each:
[10e] You turn on the radio only to hear this Maroon 5 song based on the Canon’s chord progression that also uses part of its melody as the hook. This song’s chorus opens with the line “here’s to the ones that we got” and claims that the title things “bring back you”.
ANSWER: “Memories”
[10m] Next, you decide to watch this 2023 film, encountering the Canon again when it plays over a scene where the Jason Schwartzman-portrayed Jones Hall auditions for a play written by an Edward Norton character.
ANSWER: Asteroid City
[10h] To lighten your now terrible mood, you put on this black comedy web series about the title animals Paul and Carl. Alas, the Canon shows up in its final episode, playing during the leadup to Carl’s suicide after he finds out Paul is dead.
ANSWER: Llamas with Hats
<LK, Other/Misc.>
