      She did write them herself or else how can they be about her own personal life experiences? Yes, she had help from co-writers with most songs but the majority of it is written by her.

      +CapAnson12345 Though many of her songs have co-writers or many co-writers she has written all of her songs and quite a few give her sole writing credit going back to her christian album when she still going by Kate Hudson. Katy can write music despite being a big pop star, it's not that outlandish a thought.

      I know something, because i read some things, for example, he's not that humble when it comes about a private interview for a newspaper. He kept the protocol of The Beatles, it takes so much time and paperwork to get an interview with this guy and when you finally got it, the interviews with him are short, expensive and he apparently is very serious with the press.

Many artists today only do it for the money and it shows in their music, not writing their own songs, backing tracks, auto tune, showy performances instead of singing and no instruments. It was different back then because you had to be way more creative than you do now to get a record deal so only the best got into the charts.

    She knows she’s not in the same league as Paul. She might not even be in the same universe. No one is.
    Still,...conversation wise, she stood toe to toe next to a giant and didn’t blink once. When most, I’m sure would have faltered.

    The Lennon & McCartney songs from The Beatles were actually always written by one of those two. For instance "Get Back" was written by McCartney, "Come Together" by Lennon and so on. Mainly the one who sings the song is the one who wrote the song. Many people still don't know this to this day
    believe it or not.

    • @Shanrocks
      @Shanrocks 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not true. You may think that one or the other wrote the bulk of a song they each brought to the table, but John and Paul always had their fingers in each other's pies so to speak. To one of your examples, Come Together may have been written by John, but it was Paul adding the swampy bass line and the catchy drum beat that made the song so unique. They each wrote their own songs, but most of the time the finished product was a creation completed by both of them together (along with George and Ringo sometimes too) that made each song so Beatle-esque.

      @@Shanrocks What you are saying applies only in a few cases. In other words that doesn't applies in most of the songs composed by Paul (Let it Be, Hey Jude, The Long And Winding Road, Get Back...and I can continue forever) and the most of the songs composed by John (Across the Universe, All You Need is Love, Revolution, Happiness is a Warm Gun, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Tomorrow Never Knows, Norwegian Wood, Nowhere Man, Ticket to Ride....and I can continue forever). So actually what you're saying is not true.

    • @Shanrocks
      @Shanrocks 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ernestomartinez4090 the fact that you listed Tomorrow Never Knows as a John Lennon song just goes to show how much you don't realize the depth of collaboration between Lennon and McCartney. (John was literally reading lines from the Tibetan Book of the Dead and the tape loops on TNK are all Paul's). I do agree that there was a lot of songs written on The White Album in particular and the Let It Be album as well in which John's songs were mostly his own, and Paul's were his own creations. But even some of the songs you listed besides TNK like Norwegian Wood, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Ticket to Ride etc, they may have started out as songs John brought to the studio, but they were definitely fully realized and finished as collaborations. Even Hey Jude, which was primarily a Paul song, had input from John, (the line about "the movement you need is on your shoulder" which Paul was going to change) and if Paul hadn't taken John's suggestion it would have ultimately made it a different song, however slight of a change it would have been. So in fact, a lot of their songs were legitimately Lennon/McCartney whether their input on the song was 50/50, 75/25, 90/10 or whatever.

    Katy has had 4 number 1's in Britain not 10. And while Katy has 9 in the US, Paul has had 31. No comparison. She probably counts the minor charts (i.e. Dance charts that involve far fewer sales and did not exist 30 yrs ago)whereas the interviewer was counting the main British total sales chart. Again no comparison in terms of success. Paul is the most successful ever as performer and songwriter but he's not one to brag about it.
