You know what I hated about the H&T booklet? The lack of writing credits and the list of musicians who played on the CD. Why did they leave that out? I always love reading those credits and I was so disappointed when I didn't find those in the booklet.

If it is, I can't find it.  We know who produced, mixed, mastered, but not the actual musicians who played.

Ah......click on "credits".  I could have sworn I did that a few weeks back, and nothing happened, then I forgot about it.  It's definitely up now.

Thanks!

Ok, this is weird.  It shows the credits for all the songs except FLM.  I was surprised to see that there were songs that she wrote by herself.
sig & av by natalie, thank you!

Good catch!  And why is that a surprise?

^ Yeah, I don't think it's surprising that V wrote some songs, My Best and More Than This specifically, on H&T solo either. She has also been more than capable of writing songs by herself and I think her cowriting is more to expand than out of necessity. She is after all a singer-songwriter and she has always been stubborn about making her music her way. And the fact that she wrote More Than This alone is even more proof, to me anyway, of her songwriting talents.
and if you don't believe me... just Put Your Hands On Me

In terms of her being a viable singer-songwriter, look no further than BNN.
In terms of the music biz, there's money to be made in publishing, so don't be surprised if the people you see in credits are there for monetary rather than creative reasons.  I know of at least one guy who got screwed out of royalties on a song through a series of lawsuits.  Years went by, and it went from more people being listed as "songwriters" until his name vanished completely!  And this guy wrote the song mostly by himself.

In other words, there are ghost writers in this biz, and there are people who get completely f-ed out of any credit whatsoever.
