The One not written by V?

In the beginning when she's talking she says something about SJ and Linda Perry being the ones who actually wrote the song... If so I must say I'm disappointed. I love VC and her music, and one of the main reasons is because she writes her own music. Co-writing is one thing, and that's fine. But singing a song written by someone else is another... I just wish she didn't have to resort to other people to write her songs.

she Co-Wrote the song.

she Co-Wrote the song.

She says she added very little to the song. I don't know about you, but that sounds more like editing to me.

She also didn't write "Paint it Black".  Either way it's a great song.

But to differentiate, that's a cover. Covers are totally different.

[All I Ask2003]

even if she didn't write it, it doesn't matter.  she's the one who fits it to her style, plays it, and sings it.  besides, it's only one song.  also, it's not like some record executive person wrote it, it's two people she is (or was) close to.

and one last thing, she was probably being modest when she said she added the "tiniest bit of contribution."

she only co wrote and even if she did not its only one song. Its not like the whole album is going to be someone else's words.

I believe she was just being modest when she said that too.

[itsthefiveofus]

mmhmm it's all good.

I'm not trying to be argumentative, or trying to bash her. I just don't know if I quite believe that. Just for the fact that I've never heard her saying anything like that before.

well, look at the credit when the album comes out.


it's really no big deal.

not to be rude, but how is the amount of vanessa's participation in creating this song personally offensive to you?  the song was probably like a gift to her.

I agree.

And who cares who wrote the song, V obviously feels strongly enough about it to sing it, and sing it well. I don't see a problem with this. And it's not like she gets other people to write entire albums for her, and she can actually write her own songs.

This song is totally vanessa's style.... So i think she definetly had a substantial amount of input during the creative process.
