List of songs written by Holland, Dozier and Holland
Updated: 11/6/2025, 2:00:31 AM Wikipedia source
This is a list of songs written by Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland. In most cases the original recordings were for Motown, for whom the three were contracted until 1968. They continued to have success after establishing the Invictus and Hot Wax labels, in some cases using the writing pseudonym "Edyth Wayne" (in various spellings). The article also lists songs written by any of the three writers, sometimes in collaboration with others. For a list of their production credits, see Holland–Dozier–Holland#Production.
