An interesting article on who are the 10 best living songwriters. Not sure if Itotally agree with the choices made, as there are far too many diamonds outthere. As an example, Stevie Wonder (who I personally consider one of thegreats) doesn’t even get a mention. But yet, PJ Harvy makes the top ten.
Check out the article...

Many thanks to NPR and Robin Hilton of 'All Songs Considered' for his perspective.

"I'm not sure why it should matter, but I always love a good "best of"list. I'll tear through the names and numbers, rolling my eyes withmouth agape at various placements. Paste's list has PattiGriffin 20 places higher than Ray Davies and the Kinks. KrisKristofferson is twice as high as Outkast, Pink Floyd and FleetwoodMac. You gotta be kidding."
