I need to know the names of the most famous and productive lyricist, Shelly Peiken, etc. etc.
Can you give me a hand?
Thanks :)

Only one I can think of is Billy Steinberg: pretty much the top lyricist. Of course, I love Bonnie McKee too :-)
Depends on genre and target audience. Check out Savans stuff (Kotecha), Bonnie Mckee, and I would recommend some pop country writers like rodney clawson (see "Sure be cool if you did" and "Hell Raisin Heat of The Summer" are amazing lyrics he wrote). And then of corse the Beatles. All in all... study what you like!
why dont ya google it?
Oh, I tried Google, but it's not easy to find a writer that is mainly lyricist!
Thanks!
Sharon Vaughn
She is amazing. Check her discography.
Jacob Kasher Hindlin aka JKa$h is a pretty good one. But I highly doubt he's really productive:

:P
Also, don't forgot Diane Warren, who does both lyrics and music, and I'm sure you've also thought about Andreas Carlsson!
I'm not sure about those Jacob Kasher lyrics in that video! pretty funny I suppose.
