(Descending) modulating songs

Also if you have any comments on Strawberry Fields Forever would love to hear them!

That is a very cool sounding song, add it to my collection.

I don't know or think it actually downward modulates in the sense of it getting lower in the key sense but it definitely has a descending chromatic chord progression, I believe. But my music theory is also rusty so if some music-person wants to clarify have at it

Might do a seperate question just for that, maybe make it a series
