Ok, You want off topic in that last bit. I was only debating the nature of artists writing music. Most artists do write their own music but they are not in hte mainstream. In the mainstream there are a large amount of artists who write their own music. Only those at the peak of the industry are likely to get others to write their music. If they were not at the top the record companys would nnot bother with them

I heard brothers in arms playing at the end of The west wing season 2 (Where the President is walking to the press confrence to say if he will run for re-election or not) and thought it was a great song.
These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Some day you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battles raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds
So many differents suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell
And the moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line on your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms
Great Stuff
