The lesson here is: everything has gone wrong and, yet, it was perfect. Afrojack was too lazy, SIA didn't wanted to be famous and Guetta didn't knew how to use Windows. The only one here that achieved what he wanted was Afrojack (go to parties). SIA became that force of nature and world renown artist. Guetta won 2020 best DJ of the world award and is a legend (and still hates windows).
He asked Katy Perry to sing on the track with Sia but she refused because she thought it will ruined Sia's performance! What an humble an amazing woman!
Yeah. I liked the song too. My musician friend just made it's remix. Watch the remix on his channel namely 'Chaitanya Pimpalgaonkar'. I'll be happy to get your feedback in the comment section of that remix :)

Titanium is very emotional for me because it reminds me of a very bad period in my life when i had an accident with very bad injuries, 11 surgeries and 4-5 months in hospital, then the hard rehabilitation, learning how to walk again etc. I'm a religious person and God has comforted me in so many ways. I believe that He's led me to hear this song at that time to cheer me up and ... oh how it did! David Guetta says it's his most special song. I don't know many of his songs, but I definitely think Titanium is special. Very positive memories out of a very bad situation.
How people are surprised that it's 'Fire Away' is beyond me. The words bulletproof, ricochet and aim are in there, makes more sense than 'Far Away' lol
Afrojack Also Worked For The Track?? I Think 4 - 5 months ago Afrojack Was Live On Instagram And One Of A Fan Asked Him About ‘Titanium’ And He Opened The Project
People like to clown this man sometimes but he’s low key the godfather of modern day edm. And he’s a wizard in the studio! Even going back to his earlier days with the “Africanism” french crew. Nothing but love and respect ❤️✊🏾
This is definitely one of the best dance tracks ever, it has great lyrics and a great sound. Many other tracks have nonsense lyrics that just fill some empty space, but Titanium is so deep and emotional. I think that's the reason of its success.
This song means so much to me. The week I turned 20 I went to Rome with a few people I was stationed in Italy with. I had just gotten there a month prior and everything was fresh and new. This song was hot then and it was playing every night at a bunch of different clubs. Even though I don’t remember it much it was one of the best weekends in my entire life and this song expressed perfectly how I felt then. Hearing it brings back so many memories and feelings man and it’s something I’ll carry with me forever. Thanks for making this 🙏🏼
I don't remember the exact circumstances of when I first heard the song but I remember this: Hearing the guitar in the beginning was like a gateway to another universe. Insanely beautiful. To this day, whenever this song plays at a party, people freak out when they hear it. It's an absolute masterpiece.
This was the first time I heard Sia snd she blew my world when I started listening to all her music. Sia is absolutely amazing and will always be one of my fav singer song writers.
For me the part that makes this song extra special, is that tiny fx in the chorus every 2 bars. Kind of like a “zoom” sound. Sure Sia’s vocal was unbeatable and perfect production but that little piece is what I wait for when it plays. Instant classic.
I really really love this song! It represents a lot to me. When things are not going well I just remember myself "I AM TITANIUM" nothing is gonna take me down, no matter what.
Big Boss David Guetta! One of the electronic música legends, curious the story With Afrojack and the fact that Nick and David create a banger working together. Best Team David, Giorgio, Afrojack and Fred (R.I.P.)
I was obssesed with this song when I was 22. It`s interesting to know the story behind it. I think Titanium is the best song of David Guetta so far... who is with me?
Yeah. I liked the song too. My musician friend just made it's remix. Watch the remix on his channel namely 'Chaitanya Pimpalgaonkar'. I'll be happy to get your feedback in the comment section of that remix :)

That pulsing drop piu piu piu is one of the most unusual sounds I have ever heard. It sounds as if my ear is going overload, going deaf, or like getting electrocuted. This one song is how I got to know Guetta. Awesome!
I remember sitting at my buddies house back in middle school, when cable TV had dedicated music genre channels. Wed jam out to this dance(?) Channel, and they kept spamming some song by David Guetta- his name stood out to us and the music bumped. And the song kept getting played. It became a thing to just talk about Guetta being back again. Imagine my surprise seeing his name years later- he " finally made it" 😅
Fun Fact : The black army guy in the video who's also featuring on the TH-cam's thumbnail is Richardson Zephir, a french-speaking stand up comedian, actor and improvisor from Montréal, Québec. He got called on set only the day before to play an extra in the video to replace someone who couldn't do it anymore. It's a friend of his from the set who suggest its name, so this shot of destiny made him one of the most famous Canadian to feature on a TH-cam thumbnail with more than 1.7G views. More than all Celine Dion videoclips combined!
I remember seeing Sia in a festival a few years before that. We were waiting for The Roots who were on the same stage after her and I knew some of her tracks from club remixes (like I drink to get drunk, maybe buttons). She wasn't hiding her face, she was barefoot, and just unassuming on stage and giving a good performance. No one else I was with knew her or her music and it seemed like most people there were waiting for The Roots (and Radiohead who closed the festival) A few years later those same friends were huge fans, like almost everyone else...
This song helped me through a difficult time in my life! The lyrics are so powerful, in combination with Sia’s beautiful voice the perfect song for me at that time! I am TITANIUM 💪🏼 😎

This song resonates in my soul forever. My brother competed on IRONMAN BRASIL and this song was playing as they were about to start the race. 6am, Jureré International beach (Brazil), sun rising, emotional vibes all the way.. and my dear brother there preparing for the very first Ironman of his life! Unforgettable moments. HE WAS TITANIUM THAT DAY!

arrived at sossusvlei lodge namibia unpacked my laptop sat in front of our tent and put on shuffle play . left there wher the immense red dunes of the namib desert, in front a yellowish grassland with gazelles running and to the right mountains glowing allmost pink in the setting sunlight. and then the guitar intro came up ..... this will be forever edged in my memory...
I remember getting back from the bar when I was near the end of college and blasting this right after it came out. Hammered drunk. Hearing this song brings these sorts of memories back. Great tune

I'm impressed how Guetta was able to finish the song in FL studio without knowing it, considering that Ableton works very differently. Anyway there is no FL vs Ableton issue here, but that the music is made by the artists regardless of the software.
What I take from this is Afrojack couldn't take an hour out of his schedule too finish titanium and Guetta almost had a heart attack.
What an Effed up camel
Hell AfroJack is over now anyways
Stupid party freak
Hahaha love it
But Afrojack is a pretty energetic DJ. his sets are rocking
Im pretty sure everyone has great memories with this song
One of the songs that got me into music production
This song alway remind my highschool era
Not great. AMAZING
My memory of this song is playing it in my set at my college fest and the whole crowd singing along. One of my favourites sets. :)
@@TRNQUL Feeling your vibe bro!
The lesson here is: everything has gone wrong and, yet, it was perfect.
Afrojack was too lazy, SIA didn't wanted to be famous and Guetta didn't knew how to use Windows.
The only one here that achieved what he wanted was Afrojack (go to parties). SIA became that force of nature and world renown artist. Guetta won 2020 best DJ of the world award and is a legend (and still hates windows).
That's a great (original) theme for a novel or film. What happens is meant to be, no matter how we feel about it -- and sometimes, it is fantastic.
that windows part made me laugh

right..? I mean wtf :D
heard of snipers? They shoot from far away
David Guetta ft Sia = One of the greatest collab artist
Titanium = One of the most iconic Electronic Dance Music song of the world

Yeah, don’t clown this man, he has a dream.
If he is such a god why are almost all of his songs ghost produced?
@@youriberger7961 because he doesn’t have time to finish his tracks because he is always touring around the world and preparing DJ sets
@@Charliegeee1 Martin GarRix makes his own music and tours more than him so huh?
@@youriberger7961 i reckon that guetta and garrix have co- producers that help them with their tracks.

definitely true, but none of that has to do with David Guetta.

Tommy Trash, Sebastian Ingrosso - Reload
PLEASE!
Swedish House Mafia - Greyhound!
I would have loved to hear the story of Levels by Avicii 😔
Swedish House Mafia - (Any song)
I love how David Guetta speaks haha
His usage of the word urban...
He sounds like an old French grandpa who is still active
He sounds like some sort of monster in the coolest way, and I like it. 😎👹
He sound like Gru
@@deivyonjackson 😂😂
David Guetta's voice sounds like he is going trough a massive hangover
Imagine how many people learned from this video that the lyrics is "Fire away" and not "Far away"
I figured those were the lyrics a long time ago
I will still say , Far Away, Far Away
Including me 😂😂😂
Christian Fischer same
@@danyimedia5727 Come on everybody say,
FAR AWAY, FAR AWAY
Ricochet...😂😂😂
I don't remember the exact circumstances of when I first heard the song but I remember this: Hearing the guitar in the beginning was like a gateway to another universe. Insanely beautiful.
To this day, whenever this song plays at a party, people freak out when they hear it. It's an absolute masterpiece.
Would have been nice to hear some of the earlier cuts, see how they developed...
This was the first time I heard Sia snd she blew my world when I started listening to all her music. Sia is absolutely amazing and will always be one of my fav singer song writers.
I've got all her albums and they are amazing.
The more I listen to interviews with David Guetta, the more respect I have for him.
Both David Guetta and Sia are living legends
For me the part that makes this song extra special, is that tiny fx in the chorus every 2 bars. Kind of like a “zoom” sound. Sure Sia’s vocal was unbeatable and perfect production but that little piece is what I wait for when it plays. Instant classic.
I think they used "slide notes" on the bass, they're very popular with FL Studio producers
Yeah it’s reverb on the guitar that is being pushed up
Can't tell if this comment is a joke or not. Well played.
David Guetta and SIA are putting out amazing things together
I really really love this song! It represents a lot to me. When things are not going well I just remember myself "I AM TITANIUM" nothing is gonna take me down, no matter what.
Too right, and for guys too - a watershed moment 🙏

I was obssesed with this song when I was 22. It`s interesting to know the story behind it. I think Titanium is the best song of David Guetta so far... who is with me?
theres a song which is she wolf, and its a collab between sia and david too. to me, it almost beats titanium but still, titanium still wins!
I Like they both but Most i Like floating through space . I want to See a making of of this

Thanks, David.
This is one of my favorite pop style tracks ever.
Still my favorite and still in my playlist even after all these years😍😍😍😍

What an awesome guy!!! He's so down to earth!!!! I like him even more now!!!
Fun Fact:
The "Other Artist" for whom the song TITANIUM was actually written for (even David Guetta says this) was RIHANNA...
Sia said it was katy perry. in fact there is a demo with Mary J Blige. Its on youtube
Sis also said it was also originally meant for a lot of other artist such as Katy Perry, Alicia Keys, Rihanna etc.
This song will always be part of my childhood.
Really great.
Welldone to everyone who work on this project. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
First song where I heard Sia. Incredible track. Tres bien :)
What's with David doing all these production and breakdown videos suddenly? Appreciate this tho, loved it
Saw him in Ibiza a few weeks ago, he's a legend - such a humble guy
Best DJ in the world,
Such an amazing guy in person !

Brings back a lot od memories 2016 was rhe year i was introduced to edm my fav back in the days was Titanium and Afrojack - Ten feet tall
Legendary song😍
This man is a true legend in the DJing sphere.
How the hell is everyone hearing "far away" instead of "fire away"?
2:07 The 2nd "fire away" is sung in 3 syllables; "far away" is also 3 syllables.
Sia has a loose diction.
shes just a fakin' ossie
You can’t see how someone hears far and not fire?
Now this is what a true artist is ✅🔥✅
more videos like this please!
Thanks Mag and David for doing this.. It was not only helpful but an inspiration too :)
Amazing song, amazing collaboration!... Musical genius at it's best...

Una de mis canciones Favoritas ,Aún la escucho 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I never got bored and never will be with this song
“Heroes” is still to this day his greatest release
Merci pour cette merveille, je ne peux imaginer quiconque le chanter mieux que Sia.
Wow! Didn’t realize how much collaboration it was.
Ooomg, I'm one of these guys understanding "far away" all the time haha. Cool that he mentioned this!
