- mwcampbell 4y agoOne example of the kind of song I think you're talking about is "That's What Love is For" [1] by Amy Grant. I once read someone describe it as being like a quaint little Michael Bolton song (can no longer find the link). But the chord progressions and the way it moves between keys are fairly sophisticated for pop music. [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLVV2TaI4Wo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLVV2TaI4Wo
