WASHINGTON - Jesse McCartney and Ryan Tedder have bagged Song of The Year prize at the American Society of Composers, Authors and Performers (ASCAP) Pop Music Awards.
The duo received that gong for penning Leona Lewis’ smash-hit ‘Bleeding Love’.
The song was picked by music moguls Simon Cowell and Clive Davis as Lewis’ breakout hit after she won British talent show X Factor - and she took it to the top of the charts all over the globe.
“Being recognised by ASCAP is a great honour as a songwriter, and I am very grateful for this award,” Contactmusic quoted McCartney as saying.
“The success of this song would not have been possible without Leona’s stunning vocals and amazing approach,” McCartney added. (ANI)
