Going On almost 30 years as a successful songwriter, this is a sweet time for singer, songwriter, publisher, producer, manager, label owner, Steven McClintock.With more than 400 recorded songs to his credit, he has been honored with another BMI SONGWRITER AWARD for his hit composition,”All This Time”, recorded by Tiffany which hit 6 on the Billboard HOT 100, and went double platinum on Tiffany’s sophomore CD “Hold An Old Friend’s Hand”. This was Steven’s second outing with Tiffany having had a song entitled “Kid On A Corner” on her previous quadruple platinum debut release. Steven had received a BMI award as a publisher for Aaron Tippin’s “That’s As Close As I’ll Get To Loving You.”Being a treasured staff writer for Island Music/Polygram Music, The Welk Music Group, George Tobin Music, Sony ATV Music, Ash Street Music and McJames Music has helped nurture Steven’s talent for writing and co-writing chart busting songs. He writes about subjects close to his heart and writes prolifically in all genres of music.Juice Newton recorded Steven’s “Until Tonight” which landed in the top 20 of Billboard’s Country Singles chart back in 1980 to start it all off. Followed by “Christmas Needs Love To Be Christmas” in 1983 which has been recorded by many artists including Andy Williams (whose latest Christmas record recently went Platinum in the U.S.), Pat Boone, Juice Newton, Wickety Wak and Danny Shirly of Confederate Railroad. Victoria Shaw, Paul Jefferson, Sixwire, ATC, Alex Boye, Trademark, Crowtown, The Nelsons, Cathy-Anne McClintock, Judy Akin, Cris Barber, Alex Harvey, Heather Small, Haley Breedlove, and others have all recorded Steven’s songs. RCA teen act PC Quest recorded 10 of Steven’s pop/dance songs on their two CDS. Plus Tiffany cut 15 of Steven’s songs over a 20 year period.Not surprisingly, his versatile song writing has also gotten the attention of Hollywood. Steven has co-scored 19 films for companies such as Sony Films, EMI films, and Action International, and has had over 70 songs released in various other movies including Peter Bogdonavich’s ILLEGALLY YOURS, as well as JETSON’S: THE MOVIE.(two of which he was also the featured vocalist for MCA).
