Furler wrote this self-help ballad — “It’s the soul that needs the surgery,” goes one line — at her small apartment in the Angelino Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles. She cut the song with Ammo, a songwriter and producer, on the same day she sang on David Guetta’s “Titanium.” Furler emailed the song to her friend Katy Perry, but Perry didn’t see the email. So Furler passed the song along to Rihanna’s manager, who held it for eight months, but ultimately did not pay the fee to secure the track. “When Beyoncé heard it, she slid into home base and just closed the deal,” Furler says. Last summer, Dr. Luke, one of Perry’s producers, got hold of the Beyoncé version and played it for Perry. She loved it. She texted Furler: “I’m pretty hurt you never sent me this song.” Furler responded: “Check your email.” Still sounding disappointed, Perry says, “It was meant to be with Beyoncé, of course.
