Larger Than Life = That's The Way I Like It

[B Steady]

To all the theory freaks in here!

Just compare the LTL progression with the TTWILI one!
The main difference is that the F chord in TTWILI has an A in the bass. Apart from that the songs are almost the same chord progression wise.

That's the way I like it should've been a single.  One of the best songs from the Backstreet's Back album.

The chord progression on the bridge is so epic.

[rhythmic5]

they're definitely both in C minor, but I think their progressions are slightly different

TTWILI chorus looks like cm, gm, F, Gsus4, G (i, v, IV, Vsus4, V)
LTL chorus = cm, Bb, F repeated x3, ending with Ab, and Bb (i, VII, IV, VI, VII)

side note: an interesting thing I've found with denniz pop and 90's max martin is that they love using the Vsus4 > V and VIIsus4 > VII cadences

for example:
Jessica Folcker - Tell Me What You Like = i, VI, II, VII, Vsus4, V
NSYNC - Tearin Up My Heart = VI, VII, i, VII, VI, Vsus4, V, i, VIIsus4, VII (both candences in one chorus!)
NSYNC - It's Gonna Be Me = VI, VII, v, i, VI, V, i, VIIsus4, VII
Britney Spears - Lucky = I, vi, IV, Vsus4, V

yeah, maybe I exaggerated with "almost the same" but I don't agree with your TTWILI progression!
I think the second chord is a Bb (as in larger than life) and third chord is not a just F chord but an F chord with an A-bass.
and another similarity is the VI-VII-i progression in the bridge of TTWILI!

this VI-VII-i is probably the most used progression in Max Martin/Dr. Luke songs!it appears plenty of times in their songs!

just checked the other progressions, they are all right and yeah, the "sus-chords" created the tention in those songs and they have been a trademark of cheiron productions!
PS: tell me what you like is the only Denniz/Max production of your examples TUMH is done by Kristian, IGBM by Rami and Lucky by Max/Rami

ahh, maybe I screwed up somewhere in my transcribing... I shall upload a midi in haste to see what happened

haha whoops... good call on that. I should have said "cheiron production" :p

btw I never noticed the popularity of VI-VII-i. such an epic list for comparison! I think you might be off on The Call though, pretty sure that's VI-VII-III hehe

adding to the list of VI-VII-i songs:
Adam Lambert - Whataya Want from Me: ...just dont give up
E-Type - Back 2 Life: ..beat I'm back to life..
Katy Perry - California Girls: ...fornia girls we're unforgettable..
Nsync - It's Gonna Be Me: ..no man no cry/maybe that's.. (prechorus)
Pink - Who Knew: ..someone said 3 years from now you'd be...
