Singer-songwriter Julia Michaels shocked everyone by coming onto ‘Songland’ looking for a brand new song. Julia, who has written songs for several artistes including Selena Gomez, Shawn Mendes, Justin Bieber and Beyonce Knowles among several other top artists, is known for recording her own songs. ‘Songland’ contestants didn’t leave her disappointed though, To put it in Julia’s words, she found some “gems” on the show. Usually, when a writer’s original composition is tweaked, fans hate it and constantly express that they love the original version over the tweaked studio version.
But, in a rare exception, fans loved Keegan Bosts’ studio version of the song ‘Give it to You’ rather than his original composition ‘Glad You Came’. Although ‘Glad You Came’ was good, it didn’t have the things Julia was looking for in her song, so Ryan Tedder stepped in and along with Keegan, he rewrote the entire song, changed the hooks, and brought in new elements.
