Fellow member Chris Mills made a wonderful suggestion some time back to feature a thread much like our OFFICIAL REVIEW threads that focused on the songwriting partnership of Richard Carpenter and John Bettis. After spending some time constructing a thread initially, I found that by trying to squeeze everything into one, it was impossible, due to the number of options available on our voting poll system. Chris and I discussed it further and figured out a way to break it down. This first thread is devoted specifically to the singles, which will be followed up by another that includes all of the album cuts.
