Anyway, all the discussion points are moot, since to the international connaisseurs, "objectively speaking, these guys were perhaps the greatest pop music songwriting team ever! (in spite of the few duds they created)."

Okay, smart guy, name a pair of pop songwriters who had a better grasp of popular music lyric forms and produced as consistently over a greater span of time.

If you want to discount the entire pop music genre as inferior to classical, you won't get an argument from me, but within the genre, they were the best. They transformed the entire popular music industry. If they hadn't, they could have made a fortune writing on Tin Pan Alley
