вЂњBut now I realize that when youвЂ™re an artist youвЂ™re making the music thatвЂ™s in your head and in your heart, and not for any other reason.вЂќ вЂњI always wanted everyone to love me, probably because I didnвЂ™t love myself enough,вЂќ Posner says. He also changed his musical style to a more stripped-down sound, a gamble considering that acoustic tracks were the last thing he was publicly known for. Suffering the ill effects of too much hedonism, Posner decided to sober up. After scrapping his second album, he turned his attention to production and co-writing, concocting hits for the likes of Justin Bieber (Boyfriend) and Maroon 5 (Sugar). Posner had a hard time dealing with the success of Cooler Than Me. Hits, says Posner, вЂњdonвЂ™t happen every year for me, so itвЂ™s exciting. The islandвЂ™s tourism chief, desperate to rid the island of its raucous reputation, invited Posner to go and explore the museums, beaches and restaurants instead вЂ“ though in fact the song has a strong anti-drugs message. His song I Took a Pill in Ibiza, remixed by Norwegian duo SeeB, has been No 1 in four countries, including the UK, made the top 10 in the US вЂ“ and annoyed the Ibizan authorities into the bargain. Posner is of course referring to his current position at the top of the global charts once again. So now that I guess those things are happening again, it just feels less heavy.вЂќ вЂњIвЂ™d say that when I was less popular, I learned to be happy without those things.

вЂњThere was a time when being loaded and loved and popular really mattered a lot to me,вЂќ he tells the Guardian on a Friday afternoon from his home in Los Angeles. A fter Mike Posner had an inescapable smash in 2010 with his debut single Cooler Than Me, the 28-year-old Michigan native endured a period of soul-searching, dealing with depression and enduring the shelving of his second album.
