Wrong, and wrong again. how bout a demo maker who takes your lyric and not only adds music to it, but records and produces it, he has no creative talent? Isnt it his idea how he wants to attack the arrangement? Isn't it his idea what chord structure he used, what voicing, what melody he will sing, what melody he will use as a counter. It's all creativity deciding what environment will work best for each song. Yiu simply don't understand creativity if u think he's some kind of robot who takes your song and makes you look good.
Again, u don't understand what creative talent is.
Is it Don Henleys creativity that created those classic guitar solos at the end of hotel California? Do you think they are just jamming nonsensically?
Is it Pete Townshends creativty that made Keith Moon such an extraordinary drummer? Most rock drummers consider him one of the most creative rock drummers of all time, he didn't write songs....
George Martins creativty made alot of the Beatles stuff what they were. What do U think the guy gets hired as a producer and he suddenly has ideas? He didn't the day before he worked with the Beatles?
Bob Dylan is a prime example of the actual music not being everything. Dylan can carry a tune, why u say he is a great singer is beyond me. He has no range, a terrible tone, but he's able to effectively sing his own songs.
I wouldn't call Mariah Carey a terrible singer. I dont like her music, but if u can't hear how talented she is, then take up something else. Does vocal control, vocal runs, emotional resonance mean nothing? She could sing a Bob Dylan song, he couldn't sing one of hers.
Now does Bob have better writing chops and artistic fervor absolutely, but u have to be able to recognize talent. U don't seem to be able to.
Anybody who contributes to a great song, had creativity being used, not just the guy who wrote the damn lyrics.
Demonstrate it...ha. Not fair u write words on a paper
