Max Martin collaborating with Britney Spears again!!

[CBS]

                   Rebecca, does it say who's playing flute on "Criminal'?   

No, how annoying! It says Guitars: Shellback. Keyboards: Max Martin and Shellback
Background vocals: Chau Phan
It was recorded by Max and Shellback at Maratone, Stockholm

I can't believe it doesn't mention the flute! It must be Max!

Ah, too bad........well, even if it's a keyboard, pretty likely the idea came from his own flute playing     (The keyboard didn't even occur to me, as the flute sound is extremely natural).

[Rebecca]

okay, now i get it, it's a keyboard. wow, it does sound like a flute. yes, it must have come from his flute playing!

Britney's performances are great, but I wish she would sing live occasionally.

Britney's performances are great, but I wish she would sing live occasionally.

Yes, you know what I think would be great, is if she did an "unplugged" acoustic session, very casual, in a studio setting where's she's comfortable, and just sat there and sang some of her songs without having to dance....because she obviously shines as a studio singer

[Rebecca]

Yes! Britney in an unplugged session would be fantastic. I love the sound of her voice and it would be nice to hear her properly.
