For the recored Unbreakable was written by JBJ/RS/DB

Please @ least get your facts straight and know what a guitar sounds like before you post. thanks again

Who the hell cares if it's guitar driven or not, they all sound very much alike.

And for the record, It's My Life & Larger Than Life were written with Max Martin - read posts properly before replying.

I do. that's why I love Unbreakable so much. It's more AC/DC than Backstreet boys. they sound nothing alike to my ears .
Larger than life = torturous
Unbreakable = one of the best rocks songs of all time

I never said Max Martin wasn't credited with a co-write on It's my life, although he had very little to do with the song. he showed them a drum loop so they gave him a cowrite.

on this post it seemed to me like he was lumping all 3 songs together. I apologize.

Were you there when he wrote the song with them? Seriously, sing the verses of IML over Larger than life and vice versa. See how easy it is.

For the record, I've been playing guitar for nearly 10 years now and don't really appreciate being talked down to as if I was some new fan who didn't know his shit. I'm not even being condescending when I compare them to bsb, there are just certain songs where the progressions are similliar. Unbreakable is just total cheese, the rhyming is awful, the rapping is embarassing but the music is awesome. The deny-ee-ey-ee-ey-ee-ey is totally from LAL btw.

I'm suprised Unbreakable was even released as b-side. Isn't that horrifying enough for you?

no thanks. The 2 minutes I was tortured for already, based on your false recomendation was quite enough. But you continue to have fun doing that.

I find that hard to believe based on your previous recomendation. But hey you go and play the guitar parts for larger than life (if you can find them) on your guitar; and I'll go play Unbreakable on mine. That way we'll both be happy. koolz
