Many singer-songwriters reach the point where they have too many great tunes to fit into a live show. Taylor Swift reached that peak before she turned 21. And then she just kept going. Missy hasn't released a new album for 10 years, but she and Timbaland have dropped hints that they've got something brewing. Motown was so overstaffed with great in-house songwriters that Gaye spent much of the Sixties singing other people's songs. He found his voice as a composer in the Seventies when Four Tops member Obie Benson brought him a song idea that would later blossom into "What's Going O. As Benson remembers, "He added some things that were more ghetto, more natural, which made it seem more like a story than a song.

British popular music and popular music in general, can be defined in a number of ways, but is used here to describe music which is not part of the art/classical music or Church music traditions, including folk music, jazz, pop and rock music.

He wrote songs which were universal in appeal and proved the world that at the end it is melody and lyrics that matter. Its like listening to simple and splendid poetry . He is easily in the top ten for the list of greatest songwriters in the history of popular music. He pretty much wrote every Who song, including every song for their two rock operas.

Not only do British songwriters earn almost three times more from the BMI than composers of any other nationality (except those from the US), the Performing Rights Society last year collected £200m for its British songwriter and composer members for the first time. Many people think of professional songwriters as pop manufacturers, only penning hits for pop starlets and that real artists write their own songs. They may be surprised at how many real artists use outside help. In 2012, 90% of Official Top 100 singles were co-written by one or more songwriters who were not the performer – in the top 20 it rose to 95%.

Radio 2 presents a celebration of the work of British songwriters, with artists of today performing classic British songs. In December 2008 Chris Evans premiered Great British Songbook performances from Adele, Duffy, The Feeling, Keane and James Morrison.

Radio 2 also wants to nurture new songwriting talent
