Could there be the potential to create another hit like It's My Life? I mean, the last real successful hit was Have A Nice Day, which was 16 years ago. Since then the band released songs no one really cared about except the fanbase. This House Is Not For Sale was played a few times in the radio but that's it. It's time for another big hit again, wouldn't you agree? I’d even appreciate it if Jon grabbed some rappers or other artists like Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams etc. to work with on a new single. That would be a pleasant surprise.

When was the last real success of Max Martin and Desmond Child?
We already had that duet with Jennifer Nettles en Do What You Can, no thanks. Doing a duet is not a guarantee of success ... it was a success Till We Ain't Strangers Anymore ft. LeAnn Rimes? I do not think so. I never liked duets, so I prefer that not happen.
Why are people so obsessed with massive success? that's why we keep getting more of the same.
I'd rather Jon be the only writer, and if he has to have a writing partner, Billy Falcon is the only guy with real talent. They may never get a massive hit, but their songs will age gracefully, and feel timeless.
It's just my opinion.
