a similar thread brought this subject to mind. I know they do a lot of collaboration when it comes to songwriting, but I was curious as to which song was written more, by whom.

i kind of sorted it out a bit by assumption. there's also the leaked songs (which are kind of a taboo subject, but they're information nonetheless?) that kind of give us a clue.

this is what I came up with.

Stacy:
Go Away
I Could Be There For You
Come Clean
Ten Cent Blues
Like the Actors

Sherri:
Invasion
Taking Control
A Sight to Behold
Combinations
If You're Wondering
Marsh King's Daughter

maybe Kim could help us out?

I'm not too sure about Many Funerals.. that seems like a tossup between the two.
also: I could be totally wrong. I'm just assuming. anyone else think any different?

Sounds like a good guess to me, though Invasion was a true co-write. Sherri started it, but Stacy came in to add a part.

Agreed!

And with Many Funerals, I believe it was Sherri. I just remember when people were trying to figure out the lyrics when they first started playing it, Sherri actually posted it (the first version of the lyrics anyway) on here. And there was something said, I forget what, but it lead me to think it was a Sherri song. I remember Boyd saying something about the "writer" too (as oppose to "writers") changing the words a bit from when they first debuted it.

I agree with all of that, except that I always (a week?) thought Stacy wrote A Sight to Behold. I guess I was wrong.

I thought I heard Sherri say she wrote "I Could Be There For You," when they were about to play it. I obviously could be wrong though.

No way did Sherri write ICBTFY. Those lyrics scream Stacy.

Like The Actors was in the running for the album, but got cut. You can still hear the recorded version streaming at

You can also probably find some live Mp3s and vids, cause they played it live often during the Final Noise tour.

i don't, in the demo Sherri does almost all of the singing on that song. Usually you can tell who wrote what by their demos...
