My memory is failing me tonight. I can't remember the name of the pioneering American songwriter who pretty much popularized the lyric-writing format that is standard with not just rock music today. One of the things he popularized was using the title of the song in the first line.

Jimmy Webb?

 

[Exe Gesis]

Jimmy Webb?

Thanks for the effort. Not Jimmy Webb. Was someone from earlier generation, who started writing songs around the 1930's or so. Grrr. Now you've reminded me to track this down. * me and my failing memory.
