What is the better songwriting duo: Slegr-Brummel or Lennon-McCartney?

correct poll options: "Are you so much of a fanboy as to be considered legally blind to the obvious truth?" or "are you not?"

[machatte]

I think I like how this is turning out : GREAT POST!

[The Other Mike]

the question is: Which is which?

also: Colon!



p.s. seriously, I don't mean to disparage either of your songwriting abilities but as someone who is not even the hugest beatles fan, it's hard to deny that those dudes are songwriting juggernauts.

p.p.s. Did you catch the irony there?

ok i'm a huge ozma fan but i had to vote for john and paul. i don't know exactly why. this question is a very hard one.

[I Like Ozma]

as great as the writing duo of brummel/slegr are, LENNON/MCCARTNEY ARE THE BEST THERE EVER WILL BE.

Harrison

Harrison

I guess my next poll should be Harrison vs. Jose.

[I Like Ozma]

haha, immigration song? or a whole career?

[icecreamman]

These are some strikingly similarities. I think Brummel and Slegr need a larger body of work to even be uttered in the same sentence as Lennon/McCartney, though.

I don't know.  I want to say the Beatles aren't really known for their songwriting.  [Hence, screaming girls drowning out music]

I had to vote Lennon/McCartney for Maxwell's Silver Hammer alone.

[I Like Ozma]

i do not believe john lennon had any assistance in the writing of maxwells sliver hammer. although it is credited "lennon/mccartney"

lol

Just imagine if you'd had the opportunity to write WITH Lennon and McCartney.  Just imagine how good The Beatles would have been then.

Eh. Doesn't change anything for me.

I read that lennon hated that song.

[I Like Ozma]

now that we are kinda on the subject. Mike, the writing under your picture makes me think of "i dont want to spoil the party"s lyrics a little.

and also speaking of songs that john didnt like, i heard that whenever they had to play "a taste of honey" live, they would sing "a waste of money" instead. YET WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG IT IS!

[The Other Mike]

it's from a replacements song.

[sometimesrock]

now there is a songwriter that should be in a poll.. Paul Westerberg.. One of the greatest songwriters of the last century.

[Oatmeal]

haha, immigration song? or a whole career?

"Alright"

[CT-700]

haha, immigration song? or a whole career?

"Alright"

Oh yeah, I forgot he wrote that. Coincidently, that was my favorite Yes Dear song. I guess that makes me realize just how great Jose's album is going to be.

[I Like Ozma]

wasn't it jose AND nate?

[gloom-glaam]

No, it was not Jose AND Nate. Nate is just the singer, on Alright.

[I Like Ozma]

ok then.
