The Aerosmith and Foreigner writers got inducted into the Songwriters HOF this year. Do you think their catalog of songs is so much stronger than Journey’s? I realize massive “hits” and “popularity” does not always equate to being “great”, but being considered “great” is subjective, no?

We’re all Journey fans to be here in the 1st place, so it is assumed we must think highly of their songs. Is this just another case of Journey getting no respect from the music establishment?

Please post your insight...I'm curious.

Steve and Neal.. prolly not.. they aren't "known" as songwriters..

Jon maybe... since he's associated with the creation of the power ballad..

Nobody else has any opinions on this?

Yes they will get in. There should be no way that this trio does not get in. Look at the body of work and it speaks for itself. As for the other RnRHOF well, we know what a crock of shit that place is so until the Rolling Stone people get the "f" out it will be a HUGE joke.

They'll get in and Neal, Jon and Steve have plenty writing credits on an immense catalog.
