In my hometown, there is a DJ/Musician named Kim Mitchell. He did a song years ago called Go For A Soda, as well as others. He has a segment on his show called "I Wish I Wrote That". I was wondering what song IMWANkers wished they'd written. For me, it would have to be 8 Easy Steps by Alanis Morissette.
So what song do you wish you'd written?

I have a playlist in iTunes that has about 144 songs that I'd wished I'd written. Do I have to only pick one?
You could post a list of your top ones if that helps, UT.

I also have a million songs i wish I'd written. We can start with all the Red Hot Chili Peppers songs John Frusciante did.
Was one of those Californiacation, Hanzo? I love that song.

The Tonight Show theme song or The Simpsons theme song. Imagine the Royalties $$$$...
Yes. The Simpsons would be cool. Even though I don't watch tv, I know that it used to be on several times a day on many channels. And that's just in my hometown. The royalties would probably be worth a fortune.

Danny Elfman wrote the Simpsons theme, as well as numerous other themes such as 1989's Batman and the music for the Spider-Man films.
The guy's banking, no doubt.
Elfman was also the driving force behind Oingo Boingo, which scored with 80s alt-rock hits like "Dead Man's Party" and the theme song for "Weird Science."

Thanks, UT. I love The Way. they have another really good song called Out Of My Head. It's a little short, (I don't think there's a 2nd verse) but I like it anyways.

The lyrics are so intentionally immature that it has become symbolic of all pop music for me. It makes me feel like kid again. It's also one of those songs that I'll find stuck in my head days after I hear it.
