Pedant... [razz] I sang in The Messiah the other week & I'd call it that. Even though my score I am sure says just "Messiah" too.

It's either cluelessness or laziness. Either is inexcusable in music credits.
"Crazy in Love" by The Beyonce.

Now we know! Thank you credits police! I hope you write to the publishers every time you find a passed-over typo when you're reading a book as well.
