    Quick songwriter quiz

    I never knew this until 5 minutes ago but as soon as you hear the answer it suddenly resonates. Who wrote all of the following songs?

    Islands in the Stream (Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers)
    Heartbreaker (Dionne Warwick)
    Woman In Love (Barbra Streisand)
    Chain Reaction (Diana Ross)

      The Gibb brothers rather than Barry on his own, but yeah.

        Yes, and you can, as I said, "hear" them singing those songs, can't you? So far from "disappearing" for most of the 1970s, the Bee Gees were never really far away from the top of the charts after all. Add these songs in with the ones they released themselves, and they must come close to being the most successful songwriters of all time, certainly up there with Lennon and McCartney.

          You can literally hear them singing the songs, as their cheesewire falsettos grace most of the those tracks.

            In this country, 'Islands In The Stream' is universally known as 'Ireland's Industry'.
