He does not acknowledge that Christine ALLOWED him to do this with her songs, that her collaborative nature enabled this to happen.
so agree with this, the phrasing of those comments bothers me too. he was doing the same when Christine and he were doing Q&As for BuckVie tour, with her sitting right next to him, and i was thinking if i was her he'd get an earful afterwards.
