Recently I have been thinking more about producers and songwriters as I’m planning soon to do a feature on my favourites, and this new interest seems to be increasing my ability to spot who songs are written and produced by. Last weekend I reviewed Love Sux, the new single by Linda Teodosiu, a contestant from German Idol show DSDS. I commented that it sounded like a mixture of Up by The Saturdays and Forgive Me by Leona Lewis. Little did I know, it is in fact a co-creation of Quiz & Larossi (who gave us Up) and Claude Kelly (the man behind Forgive Me). Thanks to the brilliant Cheiron forum for the info!
So, on this note: which producers or songwriters would you like to see collaborating to make a hybrid of their most popular songs? And who would be perfect to sing it? Perhaps a collaboration between Xenomania and Max Martin for Girls Aloud, or Richard X and RedOne for the Sugababes? Leave your suggestions in the comments!
Oh, this is TOUGH…either of your suggestions sounds great. I’d love to put Thomas Troelsen, Remee, and Xenomania in a studio together and tell them to make a brilliant debut single for a new male artist, something that took “Hot Summer” etc. from Troelsen/Remee and any of Xenomania’s more interesting Girls Aloud songs as a sort of spiritual jumping off point.

Ooh, good idea! I hope Thomas will work with more male artists. I wasn’t hugely impressed with his work with Martin from X Factor, so I want him to redeem himself.
