I am so glad to hear that.

On LIVE on the Paradiso, Chad Taylor only got credit for Selling the Drama, Lakini's Juice, Purifier, and Operation Spirit. So that stands to reason that Ed has more to do with creating Throwing Copper than the rest did. At least the hits songs of Throwing Copper.

When Ed became the sole writer the band wasn't as successful as it had been. However, the band was on a downward trajectory after Throwing Copper. The band wrote most of Secret Samahdi together, and the album was a flop as a follow-up to Throwing Copper.

I guess that "stands to reason" if you are a person who knows absolute zilch about song credits and how they work. Here's a hint: the Paradiso credits have absolutely nothing to do with the original songwriting credits. In fact, what you see in the credits of the albums doesn't even come close to telling the whole story.

That right there kind of flies in the face of your claim that Ed wrote TDTH doesn't it?

Here's some more links that throw your argument out the window. Are you ready?

As for commercial success, sure SS didn't sell as well as TC, but it went platinum TWICE! That is not a flop in any sense of the word. Live was still relevant when TDTH came out because of that album.
