High Maintenance Woman - Songwriters

Songwriters

Although Keith actually wrote "High Maintenance Woman" entirely on his own, he gave co-writers' credit to comedian and singer Tim Wilson and Danny Simpson (Wilson's frequent co-writing partner), because Wilson had previously cut an unrelated song that also contained a similar premise. On his official website, Keith states:

I got to the studio and played for the session guys and they said, "Aw, man. There's a comedian named Tim Wilson who's got a skit about that and has a little ditty song that's kind of the same thing."… Tim's a friend of mine, so I called him and told him about my song… I said I wouldn't even record mine without his blessing, which he gave. And just because I don't want anyone to ever think I copped his song, we threw him a small share of the writing and put their names on it.
