P!nk Returns to the US Top with Swedish Help

P!nk returns to the Billboard Hot 100 throne with the help of Max Martin and Shellback.  “Raise Your Glass” was the first single to be lifted off the greatest hits album, and one of the new tracks. The final track to be released as a single from Funhouse was “Glitter in the Air” which peaked at No.18 this January.

It’s not the first time Shellback and Max Martin elevates P!nk to the throne. The duo contributed with three tracks on the Funhouse album, including the No.1 “So What.” The 25-year old Shellback was born Karl Johan Schuster and reigns from Karlshamn, Sweden. Before becoming a full-time songwriter, Shellback had a background as a metal/hardcore band member (very similar to Max Martin’s background).

This year, Shellback has written hits such as “DJ Got Us Fallin’ in Love” with Usher and Pitbull as well as the brand new Robyn track “Time Machine,” from her third Body Talk installment.
