Especially considering he wrote relatively few songs, so those ones are already a significant percentage.

I know how much you like scores and percentages but let's face the truth, there are no real "John's songs" to apply your statistics on.
There are only a few lucky riffs and simple tunes thrown into Queen blender over the years, and for which he was generously credited individually, and insanely generous credited globally on the last albums.
Maybe that's why John is so resentful, it's hard for him to be considered tolerated. Although he had no problem with cashing the money.

I don't think this is true.
If you Can't Beat Them (early version with alternate vocals). It´s one of my favs, any chance for sharing this song, please?
