Well both Stevie and Jimmy both have said in interviews that he was constantly on the lookout for hit singles for her-- i.e. songs written by other people. And even Fishkin said they were looking for mainstream songs to make her a commercial success so they guys in the audience would like her.
So her notion that her success is all due to her own innate talents is well misguided. Her career was a PRODUCT which she and others actively crafted.
It's always interesting that she was okay with changing her songs and her musical style to what all these OTHER men told her to, but if Lindsey, who was the one who originally helped make her songs better said one thing to her she went off about him messing with her songs. Total hypocrisy. She was irrational about his inputs and let her emotions get in the way -- except when she got really stuck, then suddenly she needed his help and knew she could manipulate him and be all nice and he'd cave.
