Question

I am A new guy in Android. I try to develop a list that can show the song name and author at the same line. The source data is from a online XML file

The following is the code I try to use in my program.
However, I only be able to display the author name in the list.
I would to ask how I should modify the code so that I can show the song name and author at the same line in the list?

The Format of online XML file I try to read

<recipes>
<song>
    <id>1</id>
    <title>Sing A Song</title>
    <songs_author>ACM</songs_author>
</song>
<song>
    <id>2</id>
    <title>DO Re Me</title>
    <songs_author>BBC/songs_author>
</song>
</recepies>
