Steve Brown, record producer for Wham!, Manic Street Preachers, The Cult amongst others, has died aged 63. 

Lyricist and composer Steve Brown presumably alive.

Now the other Steve Brown, the lyricist, composer and record producer, has died. He worked on West End Musicals Spend Spend Spend and I Can’t Sing! The X Factor Musical. He composed many of the songs and jingles on loads of programmes such as Spitting Image in the 80s/90s, Dead Ringers and The Ant and Dec Show (including Wonkey Donkey).
