Title: If you had to pick only 1 song written by Max....
Post by: *Sabine* on January 25, 2008, 02:52:52 PM
The topic says it..... which song would it be? And why is it your favourite?

As far as I'm concerned, I would say SHAPE OF MY HEART from the BSB.
This song is typically Max: structure, rythm, instruments, vocals.... but I think it has something more: melancholy!!! The melody along the chorus is really wonderful, I think it's one of Max's most catchy song ever, even if it's mid tempo. Both the verses and chorus are excellent (cause most of the time, the verses are not as powerful -of course-)...
Besides, this song is obviously pitched a little...and that makes the atmosphere around that song even more special.
Well, to make it short, I think it's my darling song from Max, the one that made me such a huge fan!

What about you? :p

I would say SHAPE OF MY HEART from the BSB.

I agree, this is probably the best. From there it couldn't get any better. This song follows the same pattern und uses the same beat as many of max' bsb ballads but it is definitely the most advanced one.

However, I couldn't say this is my ultimate #1 song because there are so many great songs and every one of them deverses the #1 spot ;D I remember max saying in an interview, he choses only one idea out of 100 or so to keep his level of quality. that makes it very hard to rate his songs against each other. :)

if it is just max who has to be involved (with or without other collaborators) i would be really hard pushed to pick between SOMH or SIBERIA, then again i think who knew could be in with a shout too!!

My choice is SIBERIA!!!! REALLY EMOTIONAL SONG!!! I LIKE THE VERSE AND THE CHORUS........

When the one you want doesn't want you too.......

its hard to pick, but in general,i love max's work with Britney and BSB,

but i think his work on Britney third album was unique and special and different from his other work all over his career lyrically and musically.

(overprotected) is a very special dance song and has a spirit and energy and the personal lyrics about Britney give it additional special taste,the production is great.

(i'm not a girl not yet a woman ) lovely sweet mature in the same time and the piano in it is amazing and its one of the most special max martin music and also the special lyrics about Britney that express a stage of Britney's life .

and aslo Cinderella and bombastic love.

but my favorite is Overprotected.

I'm split between Shape Of My Heart and I Want It That Way...  could probably listen to either of them on repeat for ever...  the key change in both just kills me every time.

Definitely Shape of My Heart for me - when I put it on, it stays on repeat for a while. Stunning.
