Songwriting Relationship Between Marx and Urban
According to Richard Marx in the interview, Keith Urban can be totally unpredictable whenever they write a song together. Marx disclosed that Urban can be over the moon about a song on Monday and not be into it anymore by Wednesday. An interesting personality Urban possesses.
Amidst laughter, Marx admitted that his friend, a Golden Globe Awards nominee, can go from this is the greatest song written by two people to not having an interest in the song whatsoever. Mark, an American songwriter, is already used to Urban’s behavior when working with him. In his words:
This won’t be the first time Richard Marx and Keith Urban will be writing a song together. The friends have seen better days together in Urban’s hit songs like “Better Life,” “Everybody,” and the unforgettable “Long Hot Summer.” However, Urban didn’t enliven a particular song that’s currently on Marx’s anticipated album, Songwriter, due Sept 30.
Song Written By Richard Marx and Keith Urban Set to Premiere
Richard Marx has an unmentioned song he had written with Keith Urban that is set to premiere this Friday exclusively on PEOPLE. According to Marx, they started writing the song in Urban’s house by 10 a.m, and by two hours and thirty minutes later, they were almost done.
The song, One Day Longer, almost didn’t see the light of day as Urban lamented that he was hungry while writing. And he hates everything when he’s hungry. Some days later, he was no longer into the song, just like that. The almost completed song was left on Marx’s device until he listened to it later.
Richard Marx then decided to reach out to Keith Urban, informing him that he wants to put out the song they co-wrote. Urban replied that although the song sounds good, he can’t seem to remember it. Marx stated that Urban almost didn’t believe they could write something that good together.
