I can't seem to find a definitive answer as to who wrote this song. I know that there were several people who wrote and contributed music to the film. I've already done a post about the title song. This song is another of my favorites from the film. There aren't a lot of details out there about it, though. Actually, I just had a thought...
Well, that didn't help. I grabbed the copy of the soundtrack that I own to check the liner notes. Those notes are written as if the band was a real group. I assume that the people listed as writers are also fictitious. The people who actually worked on the soundtrack are Tom Hanks, Adam Schlesinger (bassist for Fountains of Wayne), Rick Elias, Scott Rogness, Mike Piccirillo, Gary Goetzman, and Howard Shore. Even though the band is fictitious, their skills on the instruments aren't. The video below goes in to detail about the actors learning their instruments and how to play the songs in movie. I really appreciate this, because I hate to watch a movie with music scenes where what you see and what you hear don't line up.
