I know he's been mentioned before but, Randy Newman is top of my list every time. Also, anyone mentioned Cole Porter?
Frank Black aka Black Francis, Charles Thompson.
Weird Al Yankovic.
Oh yes!
Can I please change my single response earlier to Bernard Cribbins?
Frank Black is indeed a marvel. Pixies work is good but the fact that all of the "... And the Catholics" stuff is recorded live to two track is fucking amazing when listening back. What a band.
Neal Morse
If the question was “envy”, more than “admire”, I’d have to say Regina Spektor
At first that sounds laughable but when you listen to his non parody songs there's some great stuff. Listen to "Don't Download this Song," it's very funny but also well written.
My "followed the rules" comment was made with my tongue planted in my cheek. He said "give me the name" and "only one" and my reply was simply "Bob". Hence, everyone else didn't follow the rules. Hardy har har, I'm hilarious. Right?
@syrupcore I will certainly give this Bonnie Prince a fair try. It is in my clouded mind that a long time ago I listened to something that got my startled attention and it was him and I promptly forgot all about it until now. Shall report back.
One issue about great quality work is that it can sometimes be intimidating (How can I do that) when one forgets that the great melody of a Joni line started out on the back of a fag packet (back when she used to smoke), but I am encouraged more than anything.
I do struggle with doggerel somewhat because my own background thinks of it as a) too easy and b) not real poetry, but that's also the problem with a writer who forgets or undervalues the contribution of music as the force-multiplier.....sorry, rambling. Have one more day before the wife returns from Georgia, need to set the mic up and croak into it while the house is still quiet
BIG BIG LOVE for any band that can sell Apple a song about a GIGANTIC DICK for one of their TV ads.
I listed Weird Al because he counters all the pretense you see in music. He exposes the fraudulence of it all.
....Harry Nilsson
Herb Hancock
fun. i add Frank Zappa.
"Evelyn, A Modified Dog"
Evelyn, a modified dog
Viewed the quivering fringe of a special doily
Draped across the piano, with some surprise
In the darkened room
Where the chairs dismayed
And the horrible curtains
Muffled the rain
She could hardly believe her eyes
A curious breeze
A garlic breath
Which sounded like a snore
Somewhere near the Steinway (or even from within)
Had caused the doily fringe to waft & tremble in the gloom
Evelyn, a dog, having undergone
Further modification
Pondered the significance of short-person behavior
In pedal-depressed panchromatic resonance
And other highly ambient domains . . .

After school, Tuesdays and Thursdays, the kid plays tennis. I like it. A little bourgeois, but it's quiet and I can sit far off in the back somewhere. Good courts in South Austin. And a good place to catch up on music. 75 and sunny out there earlier. No complaints apart from the feeling that I must evidently and without question be a predictable two-dimensional character after all.
I listened to Bonnie "Prince" Billy and he had me in the frst verse, like you knew he would, the first two lines. Sounding like a broken literate hillbilly channeling Yorke (How to Disappear Completely) but with extra real heartbreak and whisky. Three or four tunes in and I had a strong moment of 'my work here is done'. Albeit done by someone else, but still. An old definition of art is that which aspires to inspire but at such close quarters this is more a matter of something that makes me want to put my stringy brush down and just listen.
Thank you, I think.
for the win. Exactly this.
Nick Drake.
Joe Henry, Peter Case, Jackie Greene
I'm going to add another one: Daevid Allen, for his solo and work with Gong, who passed away today. Big inspiration for me, that feller.
You just might have the first few lines of something interesting right here.
Justin Currie.

If by songwriter you mean someone who writes the best text for his songs (not the music), then my favorite is Oxmo Puccino... But it will mean something for french talking people only I guess LOL
Oxmo Puccino don't know about his lyrics, but what a great name
For the record, I actually meant the whole ball of wax; words and music and the combination therein...
