I was under the impression - think I read it on here many years ago (hi everyone, I'm back, not that I expect anyone will remember me, being an occasional commenter years ago) - that Dean Pitchford was given a writing credit because he wanted one, having produced(?) the soundtrack and that the song is actually Jim's creation alone. Pitchford has a writing credit on all songs on the soundtrack.

Am I mistaken?
