Timbaland feat. Katy Perry - If We Ever Meet Again

Published 8 February 10 11:14 AM | charlotte

It's not hyperbole to say that producer and MC Timbaland changed the face of hip-hop and R&B in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Everytime We Touch’ is the sonic finale from David Guetta’s album ‘Poplife’ and his own favourite from the album. The single was written with long-term collaborator Chris Willis, and co-produced with Steve Angello and Seb Ingrosso, the infamous pairing from the Swedish House Mafia. Guetta’s trademark hooks and Chris’s vocal make this the perfect footnote to an album that’s delivered hit after hit.
