Title: Hilary Duff next single by Carl, Savan, and Kristian
Post by: turnaround on May 11, 2014, 11:29:06 AM
Savan updated his wikipedia page:

Hilary Duff
TBA


So I guess we soon can expect a comeback by Hilary. There have been rumours before that Max and Luke worked with her before so maybe we get a big comeback album.

We have to keep her on our radar.

Quote"I'm cutting an Ed Sheeran song next week, which I'm really excited about," Hilary told MTV at the recent iHeartMusic Radio Awards (which she totally owned, by the way).

Ed's already penned songs for Olly Murs, Taylor Swift, and One Direction, so Hil's in good hands.

Speaking of One Direction, Hilary's also worked with one of the boy band's main songwriters, Savan Kotecha. The hitmaker's also written for Ke$ha, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Cher Lloyd, and most recently, Ariana Grande, penning her latest hit, "Problem."

As for the sound of her new album, Hil simply says that it's an "earthy, indie-pop vibe," which sounds promising.

                It would be full circle if  Max or Luke worked with ha,  as the story is she was one of the singers considered for "Since U BEen Gone" :-)

Good news! I like her though I consider she's an below-average singer.

What a dream team! I wish Rami was involved in here.

Anyway, I hope this is worth the wait.

Super exciting. Out tomorrow. First listen later.

Oh and you have to love popjustice.

QuoteAnd that new single was co-written by some people who know what they're doing when it comes to writing a new single.
So there we go.

I expect something "Where The Sun Don't Shine"-ish.

...even though the first single was very summer-ish already, so I might be wrong.  :o

Magical. So infectious. Drug effect. I CAN BARELY HANDLE IT RIGHT NOW. LOVE THIS FEELING. Will I ever not be a sucker for this folk-pop production?

I think it'll definitely chart on Billboard, maybe not high though, but as it's Hilary.

Post by: Polarmachine on August 12, 2014, 11:35:24 PM
You can really hear the Falk/savan touch to it with guitar and poppy drums but the production is not interesting enough and the melodies is far from infectious to me atleast. and I'm no fan of the male choir singing those backing vocals. Sounds unnatural. it got that typical Ilya snare pattern in the pre chorus. just like in problem and bang bang, haha I'm tired of it now.

Y'all are a MESS. Not infectious? I can barely comprehend! KEEP LISTENING.  :) But then again I really am a slave to this folk-pop production. The banjos and the background chants kill me. The melodies are so beautiful to me.

Post by: melodicmoonlight on August 15, 2014, 04:44:44 AM
it actually almost reminds me of something on Shania Twain's "Up!" album. the male background singers, the melody, verse lyrics, southern/folk vibe.

the song is cute. nothing amazing but it's not bad

I want to really like this. And I kind of do. But it is a bit stale. Also, the whistle trend has been played out.

"Turn the lights down low and kiss me in the dark" part - I like it
Whistle part - awful
The rest - I don't mind/care

Post by: j.fco.morales on April 07, 2015, 07:22:34 PM
Actually, I think it's not a hit, but I like it.
I can hear Tove Lo BG vocals very well. I think they should work more together, her softer songwriting style fits Hilary's image nowadays pretty well.
Moments would sound amazing on Hilary's.

The thing is: with such a thin voice, what else can you do?

I remember that song from my teenage years. It was used in Laguna Beach (tv show about posh cali kids). Great pop tune, written by John Shanks.

Album has been released:

https://itunes.apple.com/de/album/breathe-in.-breathe-out.-deluxe/id1003570041

"All about you" is not on the deluxe version.

Btw there is a Ilya/Tove Lo song "One in a million"

Tove has 3 songwriting credits.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathe_In._Breathe_Out.

One song is by former Denniz Pop award winners: Albin Nedler Kristoffer Fogelmark

I think Sparks could be a sleeper hit.

I'm currently listening to the album, One In A Million is really good.
Tove Lo is doing great co-writings lately.

The album does surprisingly very well in the iTunes US charts and some other countries too.

But I think it's a mistake to not have included the first two singles.

Nevertheless I like all songs in it, but I would not say I'm overwhelmed by any of it.
