*** ELTON JOHN CO-WROTE A MARIAH SONG ***

There's rumours that Elton John co-wrote "Fly Away", Track 10
on Mariah's latest album,  Butterfly.

Alright, the CD jacked says that E.John co-wrote the lyrics, but
I doubt this is true. C'mon! If Elton John (now Sir Elton John)
co-wrote that, wouldn't we have heard about is sooner?
If anyone can shed any light, please email me!  :)
