Pretty amazing though, when you listen to the huge difference Max's production makes to a song like this -- interesting to me because the way they play this here is almost like a rough demo run-through....whereas the live version of "Oxygen" that Alex posted (Jimmy Kimmel Show) is alot closer to the record, and the guitar is alot heavier than this one.

I bought this cd today and annoyingly it doesn't have the songwriting credits on the cd sleeve!! But it does say "Produced by Michael Ilbert and Living Things" (I assume the whole album) so no Max on production.

Indeed, as I've been saying for a long time, Max is not involved. It really doesn't sound like his productions.

Max is involved like songwriter not like producer.

Wow, no songwriting credits --that's really bad even by CD standards!  Production......yes, I see now on Maratone site listing for these two songs the 'producer' name is left blank....

Ok, now it's clear, powerful melody and bad production!

Sorry for bumping this old-thread. But I found out the following:

Max is co-writer of "Oxygen" and "Let it rain"

If I read this right?

It's not like Max Martin is a production genius... he's more like a melody man.

Actually, I think Max production wise is pretty average, that's why he works with co-producers.
