Regardless of who wrote the song, the last time I checked, if someone is co-credited with writing a song, they should be categorised as such.
The song was actually credited to them both. Also replaced some http: links with https: ones. And added placeholder genre since placeholder genres are exempt from the 'sourced genre' requirement.
