Who would have guessed that we’d ever mention the Backstreet Boys on Side-Line. The US boys band Backstreet Boys have premiered a song called ‘Breathe’. The song was in fact co-written by Magne ‘Mags’ Furuholmen from A-ha.
Who would have guessed that we’d ever mention the Backstreet Boys on Side-Line. The US boys band Backstreet Boys have premiered a song called “Breathe” from their upcoming album “In a world like this”. The song was in fact co-written by Magne ‘Mags’ Furuholmen from A-ha but in interviews the band claims (and will continue to claim probably) that they co-penned it with producer/writer Martin Terefe. Furuholmen wrote/co-wrote some of A-ha’s biggest successes including “Take On Me”, “Cry Wolf”, “Stay On These Roads”, “Early Morning”, “Move to Memphis”, “Minor Earth, Major Sky” and many more.
For those wondering, many artists, including several from the dark wave scene in fact, pen tracks for pop artists. It can represent some nice income if the tracks hit the charts.
You can listen to the song below.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
