Hi!
I was checking the chord complexity score for several songs but sometimes it seems that the algorithm is tripping a bit. For example it gives this Ariana Grande song a score of 100. It has a nice gospel progression but giving it the maximum score seems like a stretch.
Could this have something to do with how the chord is played rhythmically? Maybe the algorithm could be improved by only taking into account unique chords in the sequence of by disregarding multiple instances of the same chord directly behind each other?
I would for example expect that this song would rate higher than the Ariana Grande song:
Would love to use the scores in the database for research, having them more accurate would be great!
Thanks for the great resource!
