Mutt Lange Production Pick

A little different than yesterday's pick. These are all Mutt Lange productions. Some he produced the whole album and others just a song, but all his work in the producers chair. A few he also wrote or cowrote, but the production is the key here. Notice that there are no doubles with the songs here and yesterday. He has quite a bit to choose from. Mutt Lange is probably known for his work with Shania Twain and AC-DC and Bryan Adams, but you will see quite a bit of other stuff in here too. I hadn't realized that XTC and Boomtown Rats were on this list until I started looking. I knew about the Cars and Foreigner and the rockers in here, but I was surprised about Lady Gaga until I listened to the song again. I couldn't find any Thomas Dolby songs written or produced by Lange, but it was cool to see Dolby appear on a few of these productions.

Mutt Lange Songs Pick

These are all songs written by Mutt Lange. Probably best known for his production, he is also a writer of hit songs. Some were also on albums produced by Lange (we'll do that pick tomorrow), but the main criteria here is being written by Lange. No need to bring up his marital issues (being married to Shania Twain at one point and the swapping spouses with her) which is weird, but has nothing to do with his songwriting abilities. I do think he writes a pretty decent power ballad. Check it out for yourself. Which do you like best?
