Re the MPs. Don't worry, it's not really a political message. A guy n California wrote it, he doesn't even know what an MP is. Yeah, that's exactly what my problem with it is.

not really the 'source' im looking for. also doesnt mean there werent more writers involved. or that liam even had a hand in it. was looking more for some official credits...
well youve already been given a source in that is apparently on spotify. The fact wyatt was playing it with him last night just adds more confirmation that wyatt was involved which to me is pretty sound logic. if you want to ignore that then go ahead, I don't really much care for who wrote it. yes, the spotify credit is what i was looking for (which is why i liked the comment by s.a.s) wasnt ignoring the info, was just saying i was looking for proper credits, not something circumstantial.

You’ll never get accurate credits for every lyric someone has input. Liam will be credited if he changed just a word. This is a Wyatt song with Liam’s input (to what extent we will never know). As @salasana said, see song credits on Spotify if you want a “source.” no one said anything about wanting to know who wrote which lyric. i was only asking who had the writers credits. i liked the comment that told me (s.a.s) and replied to the post that didnt. it wasnt the info/clarification i was after. wyatt couldve written it on his own or there may have been others involved aside from liam.

No clue why people are questioning the idea that Liam wrote the lyrics to this. They're a pure continuation of his writing from AYW, especially the likes of Greedy Soul and I Never Wanna Be Like You. I guess the chorus could potentially be penned by Wyatt.
Wanna know the difference with non-Liam lyrics, just check out Paper Crown!

Prefer the Live version one from Glastonbury, the actual song is pretty naff tho, the production is so meh. Both this and Shockwave 2/5.
Once sounds more promising.

I still didn’t get my river download. Either by email or my account on Liam’s site. Ordered the big vinyl box set. I expect the world for those prices. WTF?

The songs he's co-credited for are probably written 99.9% by the other guys and they add his name for the sake of it. He says they've written six songs in a week, yeah right. They probably come in with much of it written and they maybe play around with them and modify some lyrics but that's about it. I dont buy for a second that they could work that fast on that many songs. Even Macca and Lennon in the early days were not working that fast when they were writing together. This of course could be different if Liam brings the songs, but I dont think that's what happened for the second record.

Couldn't give a stuff who wrote it. Do think the lyrics aren't perfect but they don't spoil the song at all for me, think it's a beauty. And it sounded ESPECIALLY filthy last night at Glasto.

I just contacted with official (Euro) store that I and many others who pre-ordered the album haven't received The River (digital). I'll keep you guys updated as soon as I get a reply from them. I'm not amazed with this issue.

The River actually sounded really great live at Glastonbury. Way better than the studio version

It looks like we all have to contact official store one by one to receive the download code. Wait and see if I get it tomorrow.

It looks like we all have to contact official store one by one to receive the download code. Wait and see if I get it tomorrow. There's a contact option at the bottom of the FAQs page. It's an online form. I just filled it in and asked for a download link. We'll see what happens!

With Jay playing that riff for the rest of the tour that is probably going to be the best version of The River we hear. It's all downhill from here 😭
