Robert Hunter was still alive last time I checked. Although he worked with Garcia, he still should be on the list IMO.

These lists can never please everyone. It should have been labeled "living rock/pop songwriters."

Prince in the top 10? Gimme a break!!!!!

Lennon's not alive anymore, so that's why it's not Lennon/McCartney.

True, but then McCartney shouldn't be on the list.............the more I look at that list, the less I like it,but it's just a list someone made up, their opinion, not mine...............good topic for discussion...............

YES I do.............but, if you like sweet fluff McCartney is your man............he is nothing without the BEATLES............Just my opinion.........Alan Jackson writes better songs that Sir paul..................

If Bernie Taupin is still alive he should be close to the Top ten ( the old Elton John stuff). Old Bob Dylan wrote some great songs especially for other folks. I can't believe it when I find another tune I love written by him. The guy is an incredible songwriter.

I am not going to argue about # 1, since Dylan is in a league by himself.

However, Neil Young is quite good, although #2 is generous, I can not see him in front of Van Morrison. Van Morrison as #20, you have got to be kidding .... He is one of the few truely great song writers
