Get To You, by a wide margin. I'd wager it's the best song of all time without a wikipedia page.

Well, I guess I didn't really specify what "kind of underrated" we were talking about - could be commercially, songwriting-wise, production etc.
Anyways, doesn't really matter - underrated in any way.

Do you guys have any guesses as to why all these songs didn't "make it"?

I love the rockier approach Max had working with Luke.

But my personal fave is 2003's In His Touch by Celine Dion, written by Max and Rami.

Love the song arrangement, the sound design, the vocals, the lyrics and how elegant and well built it is.
Love how detailed the production is and the little rimshot :D

It's a gem, so different from every song from his catalog.

Love that one!
BC Jean got dropped, isn't she?
She wrote If I Were A Boy, but her solo career never took place...
