im going to start pulling a meghan mccain and insist that my political opinions are important because my father wrote the reggae hit "murder she wrote."
fyi this is 100% true i actually bring it up all the time. see thread here where i get into it, including my dad's blink and you missed it cameo in the "murder she wrote" music video.

this thread has blown up since even if you say something a bunch of times the algorithm kills it, lol. here's a clip of dad in the music video. its super quick, hes not a big performer.
and heres the ascap/bmi songwriter database entry for it. as the other lloyd oliver willis (jr), theres not many of us in the world so i assure you its him. this is his accomplishment and i had nothing to do with it, i just think its neat. 
i went through this in a thread before but because my dad spent so much time as a session musician, i think one of the weirdest things is he has a credit for a john denver song.
this is the song.
