Ellie Goulding - "On My Mind" (Max Martin) (from album "Delirium")

[j.fco.morales]

It's SO poppy.

To me sounds a bit like an Avicii song...

It sounds like contemporary Max Martin to me.

Lost & Found is the best song Ellie has done in my opinion.

I've never been a huge fan of her's but this is magic. That stomping beat, the tender lyrics, the folky element, the HEYs. I agree with what someone else wrote, how it sounds like early to late 2000s Max. Something he might've done with Luke.

I love Lost and Found so much, so catchy.

Jocke Berg seems to be recycling an old song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtbkz8jKKew

The Target Edition features even two more Rami songs:

False information.
Carl Falk confirmed they (him & Rami) were not involved in those tracks.

Oh - typical wikipedia.

But that's good - it's hard to get Target editions.


What I like the most about "Lost & Found" - the "Heys". Brilliant.

I actually don't care much for the production, but the vocal production is great. The choir like BGVs really enhance Ellie's leads in the chorus. It sounds amazing, just like in the late 90s. That's what grabbed my ear.

Normally if I listen to that kind of production with a so-so song, I move on. But this song is great melodically.

Do you think this might be the Kristian Lundin production?

Edit. It says it's by Max.

The track begins as a swaying guitar-led piece of pop, before bursting into a sky-reaching chorus produced by Max Martin (Britney Spears, Taylor Swift).

I feel it has a lot of Kristian Lundin in it, it's really pretty and poppy. But then again, it's what Max used to sound like too back in the day. I'm not sure Max came up with the entire top line, but the harmonies is definitely all him. He's the harmonies master.

[j.fco.morales]

The verses sounds a lot like Ellie's first songs.
The drums sound like Kristian Lundin's, but it's Carl Falk.

It grabbed my attention that the first part of the chorus is like a prechorus.
And the instrumental pre-chorus that connects the first and second part of the verses and appears again as a middle 8.

I agree the BGV's and vocal production makes the song interesting... many Max Martin tricks all over the song: it reminds me of a lot of the songs in his catalogue.

HEY!

I get massive Lisa Miskovsky vibes from that song.

False information.
Carl Falk confirmed they (him & Rami) were not involved in those tracks.

btw - where did he confirm this?

Actually, the iTunes files confirms the songwriters.
