I remember Stevie's comments about 'the monsters are coming' but I don't think she said she didn't like it, did she?

My understanding of the song-- it started out as a Chris tune (Keep Me There) and then John was 'mucking about' in the studio and played that cool bassline- and he remembered that Chris said, "oooo! I like that!' so they kept it as part of the song. As time went on they realized the main part of the song wasn't really working, but the bass solo/ending they all really did like. I think this major contribution was what got John the writing credit. Anyway-- LB then played a major role in re-structuring it, and Stevie contributed her lyrics. So hence we have the reason why J,C,L and S are listed as co-writers.

However I have no &$#% idea what Mick did to get a credit. maybe they just felt bad leaving him out LOL.
