being written by him doesn't necessarily matter though.

Eyes on Me is the classic example for this. despite it being composed by him, the version FF8 uses isn't always on the official albums because of - most likely - licensing issues with Faye Wong. it also released on her album prior to the game's release, even if it was explicitly meant for FF8.
ok but when people are colloquially talking about licensed songs, they are very much not talking about a song written for a game by a member of the sound team that merely had another band perform it, anymore than people would call anything Uematsu arranged for FF7R licensed
