429:). You can have five (or more!) horses pulling a carriage in tandem - each horse being behind the one in front of it - and a tandem bicycle can have five seats on it etc. Which brings up the second point; namely that 'tandem' implies one behind the other, something which might be mistakenly interpreted as McCartney being behind Lennon, or Richards being behind Jagger, etc., in the various songwriting partnerships in the list, something which clearly isn't correct in the majority of cases. Thirdly, the word 'tandem' being uncommon is not a good thing - as stated above - and the goal of Knowledge is certainly not to be quirky or unpredictable; it is to be clear and concise. As such, the argument above is an argument against the use of the word 'tandem', not an argument in favour of it. The word 'Duos' should be used, particularly in light of the fact that the next section is labelled 'Trios', so I am going to update the article accordingly...
1347:, having sold more than 300 million! Then we have Lennon/McCartney, for whom there are no songs listed and only a link to a list of their co-written songs. How does all of this work? 'Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus' of ABBA fame get five songs listed AND a link to all of their co-written songs. What are the classification methods in use? Roger Waters and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd are mentioned, even though they only wrote very few songs together, while Jimmy Page and Robert Plant - who wrote (and/or 'borrowed'!) pretty much the entire Led Zeppelin catalogue - aren't even worthy of their own specific mention in the main list for some bizarre reason. These guys wrote Stairway To Heaven for goodness sake! So ... can we come up with some agreement as to how the list is categorised so that we can set about making it consistent please? Or, if there already is some method in place, perhaps it would be useful to include it in the article?
1382:
what I mean? Furthermore there should be a reason why the songs in the Songs column are picked; such as being Number 1 hits on the
Billboard Chart, or whatever. Lastly, there should be a reason why a team appears in the primary list; why are Waters/Gilmour there and not Page/Plant? I can't think of any reason why the former are there and not the latter (which is not to say that there isn't one, but if there is then it isn't clear...). I'm simply saying that there should be agreement as to what the columns in the list comprise - one which is stated in the article - after which we can then go through them all and make the list consistent. Does that make sense?
1343:
of well known songs. However in the case of Jagger/Richards the Songs column lists only three songs and has no link to a list of all the songs they co-wrote. These are the guys who wrote pretty much the entire
Rolling Stones catalogue after Brian Jones left! Then we have John/Taupin, another pair who have written numerous hits and a multitude of other well known songs. Once again there is a list of only six songs no link to a list of all the songs they co-wrote. In fact, for some bizarre reason there doesn't even seem to be a list of all their songs on Knowledge, even though their co-written albums are in the very top echelon of the
401:"Partnership" certainly is more common, but it can refer to more than two people, so no dice. "Duo" would work fine, and it is also more common, so a move seems indicated. And yet . . . some of the appeal (to me) of "tandem" lies in its uncommonness, I have to admit. It falls into the category of "quirky, unexpected things that make Knowledge fresh and colorful and unpredictable"—a category I fear continues to shrink. If "tandem" were terribly obscure, then we absolutely shouldn't use it, but it's only slightly obscure and it does mean exactly what we intend: "a group of two . . . people working together"
898:— Noted songwriting teams must have been around for a while. For lack of any other yardstick, I will use the Rock Hall of Fame's criterion of 25 years activity for any team (or trio) in releasing public material. So, as of the writing of this in 2012, teams (or trios) must have been issuing public work from 1987 or earlier to qualify for the list. A different time measure could be used, obviously, but I believe some substantial amount of time needs to have passed for notability.
136:
Schenker are not notable songwriting teams, as they are not constantly having their songs covered, or having their musicals revived, or having their work referenced internationally on a regular basis. Yes, these pairs wrote songs together, as have thousands of other individuals, but they are not responsible for a body of work that has stood some test of time in terms of influence and durability. Again, I have edited out those individuals that don't really belong here.
354:
very notable teams who never had much success with singles. One very obvious example is Jimmy Page and Robert Plant of Led
Zeppelin; who have sold hundreds of millions of albums, but never had significant success with singles. You wouldn't suggest that Page and Plant should not be on this page though surely? My point being that I think the criteria should be record sales, but that it should be singles AND/OR albums combined. What do you think?

songs for hit TV shows, these might help some too, along with other markers of notability such as songs that are heavily covered by many artists. None of this applies to Phish and Phish is not in this league or even close. They don't have any top ten hits at all. And their albums don't sell that well. They have longevity and a dedicated following, but small in the scheme of things.
1416:
heap of work, only to have it removed. That being the case I'll have a bit of a think about how the list columns should be determined, come back and discuss it with you guys to get consensus, then update the list accordingly. In other words, I will take you up on the challenge, but I'll get the consensus before I change the list so as not to waste my time (or yours!). Fair enough?
1065:. It probably would be good to keep in mind some level of cultural impact - Lennon and McCartney's went beyond music into Western (and to an extent global) culture at large, Rodgers and Hammerstein were a culmination of the tradition of the American musical from the previous four decades, and Hetfield and Ulrich can be argued to have great impact on a specific genre,
32:
831:. As such, the had a #2, another #2, and a #4 in the UK. Nothing else in the top ten, but 3 in the top twenty and a couple or so a bit below that. That's all in the UK, with basically nothing in the US (or Canada or Australia). The UK is a very large market but smaller than the US so I would discount that a little compared to similar standings in the US.
637:.) Disagree entirely with opening it up to larger collaborations; tandem songwriting pairs have an important place in music, both historically and today. If consensus is to open it up to more than two (and I strongly suggest not judging consensus hastily), I'd think it would be appropriate to maintain separate sections for groups of two, three, etc.
910:— The team in question has had some level of influence on popular music as a whole. This will be more difficult to specifically define, but it includes having major effect on the establishment of a specific style (punk, hip-hop, blues, torch songs, disco, etc.), or having affected a sizable number of other artists who followed.
848:
the charts, successful musicals or rock operas, just generally being particularly famous, stuff like that. Or absent any of that, at least a few #1 hits. They have longetivity, but nothing else. One theme song for a short-lived theme show adds something but not much. Absent some counter-argument I propose to remove them.
471:"Sing", "Solitaire", "There's a Kind of Hush", "Goofus", "All You Get from Love Is a Love Song", "Sweet, Sweet Smile", "I Believe You", "Touch Me When We're Dancing", and "Make Believe It's Your First Time" were also written by others. These are all songs that reached the top ten on the adult contemporary charts.
482:(And speaking subjectively, I think the songs that really launched the Carpenters into stardom and defined them for all time in the public imagination are their first few #1 and #2 hits -- "Close to You", "Only Just Begun", "Rainy Days and Mondays", and so forth -- and none of these are Carpenter/Bettis songs.)
1035:
present, who in 20 years time may be completely forgotten and irrelevant. Again, all of this is qualitative, so a songwriting duo that started in the early 2000s and has seven #1 singles and 30 million in album sales with lots of catchy tunes may indeed qualify - 10-15 years of success could easily be enough.
1342:
The list is very inconsistent. Consider three of the biggest songwriting partnerships in Rock (or music in general even!), 'Mick Jagger/Keith
Richards', 'Elton John/Bernie Taupin', and 'John Lennon/Paul McCartney'. All three partnerships have had numerous hits and, beyond their hits, have a multitude
929:
Eminently reasonable as a general yardstick, perhaps a bit strict if we try to follow it to the letter. I like the longevity criterion but can well imagine a good case being made for an exception here and there. The second one—yeah, that probably would work. I think the third could be hell to verify,
520:
But wait. Since we have to change the name, why not expand the article to include teams of three or more? There aren't that many -- two that come to mind are

I think a number of the recent additions do not meet the criteria of "This is a list of famous songwriter tandems of popular music and pop standard". In particular, I don't see how many the persons listed are considered famous. In most cases they just wrote music for their own band or duo and their

Now that the article has been expanded to include trios and up, we can revisit Lee/Lifeson/Pert. My personal opinion is that I don't see them as qualifying, though. It's close and really on the bubble, so maybe they do. Let's look at them. For the purposes of the following analysis, I'll assume that

Hello. As per the conversation in the 'List inconsistencies' section below, I think we need to hash out the "Criteria For

Carpenter/Bettis were at best the second-most important songwriting duo for the

Blink-182 is, at best, a B-list band. I believe they've never had a single #1 hit on the main Billboard chart, for starters. There are thousands and thousands of bands who are followed by assorted young headbangers, punks, slackers, stoners, sceners, and other denizens manque of the demimonde. Many

I understand. What I'm saying is that there should be consistency. If there is a link to all of the Lennon/McCartney songs then Jagger/Richards and John/Taupin etc. should have one too; i.e. they should be the same as 'Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus', with a list of songs AND a link. If you see

1. Why is longevity a requirement? Let's imagine a hypothetical songwriting duo known as Ex/Why, who started writing songs for a group called Bandname in the early 2000's. So far they have had seven Number 1 singles, four Top 10 singles, and their four albums have sold 30 million copies worldwide.
847:
I don't see this as being enough. I'd like to see at least one #1 hit, combined with other markers of notability. Other markers of notability would include various combinations of: a lot of other performers covering their songs (besides Squeeze), awards, long-term residence in the upper reaches of

Not most of the Carpenter's big hits. "Close to You" was Bachrach and David. "Only Just Begun" and "Rainy Days and Mondays" and "I Won't Last a Day Without You" were Nichols and Williams. "For All We Know", "Superstar", "Hurting Each Other", "It's Going to Take Some Time", "Please Mister Postman",

And who are you, good sir, to decide who are notable songwriting teams and who aren't? For your information Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge have their songs covered on a regular basis. Their songs also have revived a music genre, as they were for a big part responsible for the punk revival in the late

My contention is that getting rid of the arbitrary criteria is the way to to get around the objections. It's not our job to set the standard; that's for reliable sources to sort out. As for which songs got listed, I just picked the hits I recognized. In particular, I'm not a big Elton John/Taupin
1235:
A couple questions. Did we want to remove the criteria? One of the claims in the AfD was "no clear criteria", so having no criteria at all doesn't seem like the best idea. Maybe we should formulate some new ones. Also, I'm curious what benchmark we're using for inclusion of the song examples. For

No, I don't see Phish fitting in here, at all. What we're looking for, just to get your foot in the door, is a couple of #1 hits or hit Broadway shows or hit musical movies for starters, or equivalents. No #1 hits might be OK if they have large number of top ten hits. Songs for big movies, theme
904:— Songs by these songwriters are recognizable to a sizable population in the English-speaking world. Numerous Lennon and McCartney songs are known the world over, and many people would recognize the tune to "My Funny Valentine" even if they do not know its authors Richard Rodgers and Larry Hart.
135:
No, they shouldn't. Again, Lennon and McCartney are a notable writing team, as are Rodgers and Hammerstein or Elton John and Bernie Taupin. For instance, Mark Hoppus and Tom Delonge are not a notable songwriting team for the same reasons that Ian Dury and Chaz Jankel or Klaus Meine and Rudolph

cases the songwriters positioned themselves in this way, but side-by-side or some other arrangement was probably more common, not even considering those cases where the writers weren't physically in the same room. So "tandem" is not accurate and we have to change it, I would say.
1166:
I'm a bit leery of putting in too many columns. I supposed you could shoehorn the associated bands into the first column, seeing as there's room there. As for merging it all into one table, that would entail switching from musicals/operas to individual songs/arias.

First of all, of course any work the two did outside of their partnership is out of bounds and not to be considered. Bettis wrote "Slow Hand" and many other hits and fine songs, but not with Carpenters. So what did the two write as a team?
