Recently the new Paste Magazine had an article about the best 100 living songwriters. My question to everyone is, just what is a "best songwriter"?Frankly, I was greatly disappointed the people that compiled this list didn't add DB, because more of his songs have had more meaning for me than many of those listed. I mean, the lyrics to "Stranger", "Born For Love" and "Secret Silken World" go unmatched. Opinions?
