58    Your Body, Christina Aguilera Max Martin,Shellback (Max Martin,Shellback,S.Kotecha,T.Amber)
62    Want U Back, Cher Lloyd Shellback (Shellback,S.Kotecha)


I don't have a paid billboard account to do research, but is right now the best singles Hot 100 chart performance for Max & Co.? Not to take anything away from the 90s and 00s which we love so much, but is right now, these last few weeks, the best ever? Is that even possible??  13 of his 15 #1s have come since 2008 and almost half of them are within the last 18 months!

He had four songs in the top ten in late 2010 which I think is the record, but I'm not sure how many others he had charting in the Hot 100 at the same time. So overall you might be right. :)

Does anyone know if "I Knew You Were Trouble" is going to get a full release? It's charting well, but it's listed on Wikipedia as just a promotional single, along with "Red" and "State Of Grace". So many at once! :o
