Do you mean to say that you are biased towards that? I find that Jim's music is a companion to the words in ways that the words cannot exist themselves...the music brings out their meanings as if the music is also words itself. That is what I mean by music being poetry. I feel that Jim's music is the second part of the intended phrase which the words only begin.

That's Jim's talent, as he has said he writes the words first. I don't know for sure if Kiss is the only song that Jim provided for the project, but he cooperated with the credit structure negotiated where ALW gets the musical credits for all the music in the show.
