| Max Martin
Is anybody else as amazed by this guy as I am?
For those of you who don't know, Max Martin is a Swedish songwriter who has had 54 of his songs reach the top 10 since 97. How have you not heard of him? Because he doesn't sing his own songs: Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Celine Dion, Kelly Clarkson, The Veronicas, Pink, Usher, Avril Lavigne, Jessie J, Katy Perry, Christina Aguilera, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande and many others do. Below are the 22 number one hits he has wrote in order. | 1 | Britney Spears ...Baby One More Time | 2 | NSYNC It's Gonna Be Me | 3 | Katy Perry I Kissed a Girl | 4 | Pink So What | 5 | Kelly Clarkson My Life Would Suck Without You | 6 | Britney Spears 3 | 7 | Katy Perry California Girls | 8 | Teenage Dream | 9 | Pink Raise Your Glass | 10 | Britney Spears Hold it Against Me | 11 | Katy Perry E.T. | 12 | Last Friday Night | 13 | Part of Me | 14 | Maroon 5 One More Night | 15 | Taylor Swift We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together | 16 | Katy Perry Roar | 17 | Dark Horse | 18 | Taylor Swift Shake it Off | 19 | Blank Space | 20 | Bad Blood | 21 | The Weeknd Can't Feel My Face | 22 | Justin Timberlake Can't Stop The Feeling! | |

08.14.16 | What a guy | sublimefan1991
08.14.16 | I LITERALLY GO ON THIS RANT ALL THE TIME. Holy shit, I'm actually pumped to see someone else appreciate this guy. I know he likes to stay out of the limelight, but looking back it's gonna seem actually unbelievable that some dad-aged Swedish dude had a hand in such a staggering amount of hits - nay, megahits - from the late 90's on. Kudos on this list. | Feather
08.14.16 | @Sublime glad I'm not alone, I rant about this pretty frequently too. It's just mind blowing how he just the US radio stations, its like he wrote every other song that comes on the radio. I hope that one day he releases all of the original demos for all his hits (I realize this will probably never happen) | Sevengill
08.14.16 | props to him for some amazing success but it's been like, seven or eight years since I liked a song and saw him credited on it | Friday13th
08.14.16 | Try Burt Bacharach if you want a hit machine that won't give you a headache. | Intothepit
08.14.16 | Lol @ sublimefan. Dude hasn't grown up an ounce since he got here a while back. | Trebor.
08.14.16 | These are all godawful songs except Teenage Dream | p4p
08.14.16 | yah Teenage Dream is still GOAT | Sevengill

08.14.16 | so no chord. got it. | theBoneyKing
08.14.16 | This would be impressive if 2/3 of these songs weren't terrible. | Feather
08.14.16 | Surprised by someone could say this isn't impressive, I would never go out of my way to listen to basically any of these songs, but that is besides the fact. You all know all of these songs and one man created them while remaining unknown, that's extremely impressive | Cygnatti
08.14.16 | A god among men | Feather
08.14.16 | Agreed | someguest
08.14.16 | Wow, he makes songs that radio stations pick up!
Good job, guy! |
