Yes. This I agree with. But...

Carole King is not the best singer in the world, she just happens to be the best songwriter. Though some may argue a lot of her songs are co written. She was even great in the beginning, in the early sixties. I would be interested to know how many hits was actually written by Carole. Must be close to 100 at least?

So that being said. It isn't fair to compare songwriters with Carole :)

I was going to put up Jo Stafford and 'You belong to me'........but I don't think there will be many who have heard of her.....well apart from the old stagers, like Cashy, Jaysay and Wynonie.
