(Yeah, I posted about that song about a month ago after hearing in z100 in
NY, but there was no one to second my emotion.) On the show they show
Ashlee "writing" the song with her co-writer(s), one of who is another
(American) young woman, who seems to be responsible for everything other
than the sentiments that inspired the lyrics. The show is funny in that the
record company execs are constantly telling Ashlee that they value her
because she's a unique artist, not because she's a television star, but then
they keep hiring new writers to work with her.
