I was really looking forward a more electronic/organic sound overall.

[J_A24]

I think he came up with the chord progression of the chorus.

Merged and moved to New songs. As our Max is involved! ☺☺

The album is already out tomorrow. This means im 1 hour I can listen to a new Max song.

You forgot Con Lo Bien Que Te Ves (When You're Looking Like That) by Westlife 

I mean originally in Spanish , not a version.

[Eddie Krommer]

Dare (La la la) is full English 

We have to stick to Belinda's Sin Dolor, co-written by Andreas, if we want a Cheiron song written originally in Spanish.

That's quite a good topic to discuss: Cheiron songs in other languages.

I just can't with the overall sound of the album, it's a mess.
Seems like mimicking many hit songs by other artists...

A lot of producers in that album try to mimick what's hot, they brought nothing special to the table.


Dare (LaLaLa) had a lot of potential but it lacks that WOW factor. Shakira likes her song to have really minimal production in my opinion so there's definitely that. Again, it feels too safe, just like Kylie Minogue's.

I checked the digital booklet, the album was just released.

Written by Shakira, Jay Singh, Lukasz Gottwald, Mathieu Jomphe, Max Martin, Henry Walter, Raelene Leguin, John J Conte, Jr.
Produced by Dr Luke, Shakira, Billboard & Cirkut.
Additional programming by Dave Clauss.

The crowd in the chorus was recorded in Brazil. I thought it was produced by Afrojack.

Could this song be a Femme Fatale reject? I mean, Billboard and Luke never worked again and the song was supposedly recorded back in 2012 and even a video was shot. And a spanish version is included in the deluxe version, so surely will be a single.

There's interesting names in the collaborators list -Greg Kurstin, Sia, Busbee, Nasri, Hillary Lindsay & Mark Bright,  -, but less interesting material and sounding.

Yes they did on B.o.B'a Strange Clouds album

Horrible song. I wish Max wasn't involved.
