The Greatest American Songwriter

[tlongII]

I would say somebody from The Eagles or Steely Dan.

[monosylab1k]

Billy Corgan

[smeagol]

And you still listed them?

Pendejo.

I think they are damn good.

Much better than many that have been named in this thread.

Deal with it, enano.

And yet none of them are American born and bred, which would be the whole point of this poll. You could probably throw Woody Guthrie up their as well. Or Rodgers and Hammerstein.

I believe Young is Canadian.

So is Joni Mitc .

I didn't know that about Joni.

Pendejo, the thread is about AMERICAN songwriters.

Pinche puto estupido.

Besides, who gives a what your Argentine Nazi loving ass considers to be good?

I was thinking Woody Guthrie, but I think Dylan pretty much took his place.

Maybe, but on his influence alone (Dylan, Springsteen) he should get a mention. And where the is Bruce? Simon gets a nod but not Springsteen?

[Spurminator]

The list also needs a certain Loggins and/or Messina...

[Spurminator]

Oh, we're missing a big one...




I hope he's not reading this thread, he'd be pissed.

Timbaland

I know.

I missed a few guys.

I should have made the list longer.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

hall and oates?

[Dr. Gonzo]

Weird Al

[peewee's lovechild]

Weird Al

[balli]

I'm not reading this whole thread, but THE correct answer is Bob Dylan. 64 albums... and at least 50 of em' are good. Nobody's even close to close.

Not even Bobby Brown?

[monosylab1k]

Not even Bobby Brown?

anybody can write a convoluted folk tune and sing like a strangled goat....but I'd like to see Bob Dylan try to re-create Humpin' Around.

[Kermit]

In that case, Luther Campbell should be a shoe-in.

[Summers]

Honorable mention for James Taylor?

[duncan228]

From the list, Dylan. I probably would have had a hard time between the two if Springsteen was on it.

[balli]

I guess a lot of singers deserve honorable mention, but at the same time... and I might be screwing this up a bit, but IIRC:

Ladykillers throw dice on me, at breakneck speed, while imitators steal me blind.
