Pitching songs

[j.fco.morales]

Guys, I just found that P!nk's Try was written and recorded by a band of two successful songwriters: Ben West + Busbee, who work  together as GoNorthToGoSouth.

Ben West produced Nelly Furtado first two albums and busbee have wrote amazing songs for different artists, his catalogue includes Kelly Clarkson's Dark Side, Dia Frampton's Don't Kick The Chair, Toni Braxton's If I Have To Wait, Keith Urban's All For You, etc.

This one is amazing, and Greg Kurstin new arrangements took it to the next level, becoming a hit song.

I had no idea, that song is so good. I like the version you posted.

This is another example of a good singer execution: Crystal Johnson's singing Rihanna's Only Girl (In The World)

I'm kinda loving this thread.
I haven't heard that one, Greg Kurstin again did an amazing job with the song.

Katy Perry - I Don't Hook Up, ended up being recorded by Kelly Clarkson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ef1efeu36OQ

Kelly Clarkson's Don't Let Me Stop You, ended up with a complete different arrangement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMJ_7BiECNE

Nicole Morier - Trip To Your Heart (a favourite from Femme Fatale) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2HtDyJM2QA

     Maybe the most amazing demo of them all:  "Like A Virgin", sung/played by Billy Steinberg's cowriter Tom Kelly. And don't believe any of the comments that say it's fake -- it aint!!!   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsttxzlrHHI

[j.fco.morales]

That's a good example.

This one is amazing as well: Cyndi Lauper's All Through The Night was a country song, she confused the main melody of the chorus and sang like background.
