Fave Songwriters

In spite of the vocalist himself/herself, people behind the song are well mentioned in the music industry: songwriter, executive producer. Sometimes I would find all of my favorite songs are actually written by a single songwriter, which could terrify me. Nothing's so coincident but the songwriters' music. That's the niche of the songwriter that could possibly name the songwriter by listening the song itself. That's really astounding to have a self's direction or trademark in music.

Linda Perry

Linda Perry is probably one of the best pop songwriters in the States. Her music has a particular element to let people recognize "Oh, that's Perry's music." Not forgetting to mention she has regular association act with Christina Aguilera. She also wrote to James Blunt, Gwen Stefani, Celine Dion, Alicia Keys and much more.


David Foster

David Foster is a multiple Grammy awards Canadian songwriter, he has all the big ballads in his hands. Songs like I Have Nothing, The Prayer and much more. He's also well known as a music producer.

Diane Warren

When talking about big ballads, make sure not to leave Diane Warren's music. Her music is amazing. You might be shocked to see her songs are all big hits of all time like Because You Loved Me, Un-break my heart, I Don't Want To Miss A Thing, How Do I Live, I Turn To You and much more.

Guy Chambers

An English songwriter best known for his partnership with Robbie Williams. He has 34 Gold/Platinum awarded albums in both UK and US. He has also associated with my fave Delta Goodrem, Together We Are One, Out Of The Blue, Believe Again are his masterpiece.


Kara DioGuardi

You guys may only know she is the new judge of the new season of American Idol, but do you know that she's actually songwriter and co-producer? I knew her long before American Idol, she's best known association with all the idols like Kelly Clarkson, Diana DeGarmo, Carrie Underwood, David Archuleta. She has some #1 hits by Christina Aguilera, Celine Dion, Britney Spears too. Most importantly, she's a pretty songwriter.

Chan Fai Yong (陈辉阳)

He's probably the one and only songwriter in Canton-pop that I like. He has a typical Chan's style of writing song, using similar musical instrument in all his music. His masterpiece can be seen from Eason Chan, Joey Yung, Miriam Yeung and much more.

Love and Peace with music.
