Part 4/9:
"Norwegian Wood" by The Beatles: The song’s melody and drone are firmly rooted in D Mixolydian, with Lennon’s use of the flat seventh adding to its Celtic and hypnotic feel.
"In God's Country" by U2: From The Joshua Tree, the D Mixolydian mode drives the melodic and harmonic foundation, especially noticeable in the move from the I chord to the V minor chord—a classic Mixolydian move.
These examples underscore the mode’s versatility across different styles, from the psychedelic pop of Lennon to the expansive guitar work of U2.
