I'm not convinced that we have that better clarification, but alright. Anyway, adding that sentence sounds like a workaround that is potentially confusing. Alternative proposal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Got_Me_Rocking http://musicbrainz.org/track/38699ebf-b56c-45c0-9b5b-660ee4173303.html These are attributed to Jagger/Richards. For their songs, there are examples of songs written by only one of them that are still attributed to both. Also, it is not clear whether they wrote lyrics or music. Regards, Jeroen
