Harmony analysis
Esin Kaya – Seni Gördüm Neşem: key and chord analysis
The song opens on Gm and ends on Gm. Its chords belong to both Eb major and Cm, so every chord below is read both ways.
Minor view
C minor
Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)
Characteristic notes
- b6 = Ab (the minor's melancholy)
- b7 = Bb (natural-minor colour)
Which side does the ear lean to?
Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the C minor side because Cm is heard 4 times against 3 for Eb. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Eb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Analysis
The key pair is Eb major and its relative C minor (3 flats). 6 different chords appear 33 times in total; 5 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. F acts as a secondary dominant, briefly pointing at another chord of the key.
Chord movement
- Bb Cm EbV → videceptive cadence CmVII → iAeolian arrival ×2
- Gm Cm Ebiii → vi Cmv → inatural-minor cadence ×1
- Ab Bb EbIV → VIV → V CmVI → VIIVI → VII ×1
The move to watch is Bb → Cm, heard 2 times. From the Cm side it is VII → i (Aeolian arrival: rises a whole tone into home); from the Eb side it reads V → vi (deceptive cadence: expected Eb, lands on Cm). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.
Improvisation tips
- Eb major pentatonic and C minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Eb – F – G – Bb – C): start from Eb for a brighter phrase, from C for a bluesier one.
- Over Gm, land on G, Bb, D — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over Bb, land on Bb, D, F — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
- Over F, land on F, A, C — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story
The opening Gm lays a solid floor for everything that follows. The chords that keep coming back are Gm, Bb, F, Cm; read them as iii–V–V/V–vi in Eb or v–VII–IV–i in Cm. F adds a moment of surprise: secondary dominant V/V — leads to Bb. Keep an ear on Bb → Cm (V → vi in Eb, VII → i in Cm): Aeolian arrival — rises a whole tone into home. The final chord is Gm; the ear comes to rest in Eb.
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.
