who wrote better?

i seem to remember axl sayin fortus wrote it, that right? or maybe finck but think was fortus?
if so he do lyrics/music?

[Neemo]

he said that it was a Robin Song...which prolly means that Robin brought the melody to the table...as to who else contributed to the finished song...wait for the liner notes

cool cheers 
seems wierd to mention who wrote the mellody to me, since i cant really see axl writing many non-piano based mellodies

well people (like me ) were saying how much robin sucked....then people (like me ) thought better was the best new tune...so axl kinda throws it in our face like

haha, ive always liked robin, back in 02 he looked like a complete freak, but has a gr8 energy on stage n just seems to love what he does, which is gr8 to see 
better is the best new tune, wondering if that may piss axl off a bit, him spending all this time on the album n someone else writing the major part of the best song 
but yeh axl likes throwing it in peoples faces n suprising us, so sure he has far gr8a things to unveil for us all

I agree..Robin brought in the basic melody maybe chord progression and everybody helped or had ideas..obviously Axl wrote the lyrics and would have had to change the tune a bit to suit his vocals
