According to a radio show in my area, Springfield wrote the songs along with Matt Bissonette, who is in his band. Springfield said it was the first time he's co-written songs.

I haven't researched, but I'd like to know what production/song-writing team helped him out. "What's Victoria's Secret" sounds like something Miley Cyrus would sing (sans subject matter, of course.) Meaning, to my ears, it sounds like that "Besst of Both Worlds" song. This isn't a dig, I'm excited to see if he has a hit with it.
