That's not I V Vi IV (the supposed most popular) but a I Vi IV V
Definitely like the progression...love the shift to a relative minor (I Vi) G em, C am, F Dm etc I use it a lot to create tension in a line before a hook....where someone might expect say a G, but you serve up the Em, then replay the melody line to resolve on G
so say G C D G might be the line, you go G C D Em, G C D G .... you can also double up on the Em to eliminate the second g, so move right to the C
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
