So supposedly their's 3 versions to this song the first one Timbaland did and Interscope didn't like it. Then RedOne did a cut for them and they hated that version, and Carl/Rami redid and loved it so their version will be the final cut and will be released next month.

Holy s**t, that's my second fave writing team after Max/Luke in that photo -- Billy Steinberg and Josh Alexander on the right :D   That song is def their style, so they must've wrote it...ahh this makes me very happy...can't get enough songs by them!!:D :D       PS........ ten minutes later....OMG this song is a MONSTER!!!!

                Here's the RedOne version....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnDrxaX5Ir8            and here's the Timbaland version......
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73TemJinn0A         Pretty amazing how much better Rami/Carl's is, wow!!!
Also, ASCAP database lists Toby Gad as the third writer of the song with Steinberg & Alexander....

Yes, all very good but the Rami version is certainly the cleanest version - I can definitely hear Max influences. RedOne did a good job as well.

yes, it's an incredible song! it's so great hearing the 3 versions. Definitely the Rami/Carl Falk version is the best, I love the photo too. I like the Redone version too, but Timbaland version isn't that good.

This should be a hit.

                                  #1 on UK itunes :D   I'm confused about the producers, though......Rami is listed as producer/co-writer of another song on her album ("Say Yes"), but not this one. (Wikipedia), but yet they're in that studio photo with her labeled "Vocal sessions for 'Don't Hold YOur Breath'........  But anyway, it's a fantastic song and record!!

ps...just found this instrumental of the song.....incredible!!!!         http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZNbEzz6PGw

             I'm really glad you guys liked it -- I love the way this song just starts out like POW!!  Right to the point, and the melody is sooo strongly  rhythmic :-) The bass part is especially great :-)

    No, it's the Rami/Falk version --that's the only official version they're using on that song, and that's the version that was #1 in UK :D  Yes, it's 100% better than the RedOne version :-)
