Lmao.
For major keys my favorite is actually A major not C major.
It's C major that is especially cheesy. Plus no black keys is totally racist! (joking of course lol).
But seriously c major is so cheesy. Usually. And uninspired. Usually. There are some exceptions. Sometimes cheesy is done right. Jump by Van Halen is C major. That's cheese done right! Lol.
My favorite songs of all tend to have their relative minor blended in with their major. Which makes sense because mixed emotions fits very well with me.
A major/F sharp minor is sweet.
This is a fun article on the different moods for different keys: http://a-touch-of-music.blogspot.co.uk/2...-mood.html
It has religious connotations because the person who interpreted it years ago was a highly religious dude. But I don't find it difficult to secularize that. For example "Happy devotion to God" or something like that, I'll just translate to "triumphant".
As well as mixed emotions I liked mixed BPMs. Not multiple BPM changes, that sounds super bizarre and gimicky. What I mean is that I like half/double BPM of a song mixed in. And I like really weird jaunty time signatures. But I also like standard 4/4 in there as well to keep a beat but then other stuff has to happen.
e.g. in songs as slow as 72 BPM I'd want some double bpm riffage in there. Some 144 bpm riffs.
