Guys I just wanted to tell you about this Glee song which sounds absolutely good. It's an original song from them not a cover.

The intro sounds like their previously produced Max Martin songs (Loser Like Me and Light Up The World), it has a big chorus and catchy verses! <3 I wonder who produced it, he totally ripped Max!

"Listen"

Your thoughts?

Cool!

Well, it was written by none other than  Peer Åström along with Adam Anders and Shelly Peiken. Peer was also a co-writer on Loser Like Me (Writer(s)    Adam Anders, Peer Åström, Savan Kotecha, Max Martin, Shellback  Producer: Max Martin, Shellback, Adam Anders) and Light Up the World (Writer(s): Adam Anders, Peer Åström, Max Martin, Johan Schuster, Savan Kotecha, Producer:    Adam Anders, Max Martin).


There's a couple of other "original" songs by Glee, most of them by Astrom/Anders.

From:
Glee: The Music, Volume 5
15.    "Get It Right"      Adam Anders, Nikki Hassman, Peer Åström    Original composition    3:47
16.    "Loser Like Me"      Anders, Åström, Savan Kotecha, Max Martin, Johan Schuster[4]    Original composition

Glee: The Music, Volume 6
16.    "As Long as You're There" (featuring Charice)    Adam Anders, Peer Åström, Claude Kelly    Original composition    4:16
17.    "Pretending"      Anders, Åström, Shelly Peiken    Original composition    3:57
18.    "Light Up the World"      Anders, Åström, Max Martin, Shellback, Savan Kotecha    Original composition    3:4

Glee: The Music, The Christmas Album Volume 2
2.    "Extraordinary Merry Christmas"      Adam Anders, Peer Åström, Shelly Peiken    Glee Cast original    3:39
4.    "Christmas Eve with You"      Anders, Åström, Peiken    Glee Cast original


Peer Åström I think produces a lot of the other cover albums, so the instrumentation sounds good. And of course, a lot of Max songs are covered!

Glad you also liked guys..

Thanks gm33 for the full credits. I agree, Per is really good when it comes to instrumentation, they sound exactly like the original ones, I think I'm gonna like him as a producer too!

I like it! It's nice to have a Christmas song in this style... makes me feel like getting in the spirit already. Just wish the vocals in Glee songs didn't sound so Disney like, but I know they're going for the whole sing-a-long vibe.
