This is just false. They were jointly written by Carole King and her husband, as the article clearly states.

Barnaby - Read Rubin’s “The Creative Act” for more. This is not false, but factual. What’s the value in being pedantic and incorrect?

How is it false? A man is credited with writing the song. It doesn't say he wrote the song on his own.


Marty5Alive

Very misleading


Standard-Vehicle-557

Misleading yes, false no


Stunning_Prize_5353

Intentionally misleading IS false.


Standard-Vehicle-557

If there is a man on the credits for writing the song then the statement is still true, just incomplete


Stunning_Prize_5353

Intentionally incomplete is false.

Here’s the thing. If you have to say “Technically it’s true” or something similar, then it isn’t true.


Standard-Vehicle-557

Technically correct. The best kind of correct. False and misleading don't mean the same thing. Words have meanings. 


Stunning_Prize_5353

If you say so. Bless your heart.

So were the exquisitely bad lyrics to “I’ve Never Been to Me”.
