How many writing credits will Stone have on this album? I'm betting 3.

Over/under 4.5

I'm betting a good chunk of the album will have multiple songwriters due to the writing process of being together in the same room.

Me too. If it's 11 songs, as reported, then it should be at least 45 min. Then again, Backspacer was less than 40 and it had 11. I kind of need long sprawling rockers on a PJ album.
I forgot about this aspect of Backspacer. God it’s so bad by every metric.

Watt will play something. He'll have a writing credit, too. But that's fine, because the songs are going to be good.

I’ve listened to the metal door leak so much, I’m gonna miss some things when the polished versions of these songs are out. I swear I wish the car horn at 3:05 could be on the album.

I hope Mike didn't write any of the lyrics. "Scared of Fear" sounds like a title he might come up with.

I like Scared of Fear as a title, it says "I'm afraid to act because of the fear I might feel if I act, so I do nothing"

I don't know if the song will explore that but I can hope
