Talk:Sam Pottle

Comb Your Face

I'm curious, what's the reference of Sam Pottle being the writer for this song? While I'm sure the composer reference may be accurate, the song couldn't have been originally written as late as 1984.

Maybe it was written earlier, but performed in the Furline Huskie scene later. --Dave Splurge 18:44, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

According to ASCAP, it was written by Pottle and Compton. What's your source that it was written before 1984? — Scott (talk) 20:43, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Or, for that matter, what's Nick's source for it being 1984? [1] — Scott (talk) 20:45, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

I was editing in the same thing about ASCAP and the date Scott but you beat me to the "save" button; I have no idea where Nick got it. It's interesting that the ASCAP entry is under "Sesame Street Cues", with the song name as the alternate title, but not unprecedented. -- Wendy (talk) 20:50, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, more and more I get the impression that the lists of songs sent to ASCAP and BMI are just a hodge podge of information that gets filtered through by dozens of monkeys sitting at a computer. — Scott (talk) 21:41, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Hey, now... watch it, there.  :-) --Dave Splurge 15:32, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Anyhoo, since this song apparently appears on Splish Splash: Bath Time Fun, if this CD case has lyrics, composers and copyright info, maybe someone here can verify whether Pottle wrote it, or whether it was originally in 1984. I guess the same could be said for anyone who has the lyric book that accompanied Monster Hits! --Dave Splurge 02:02, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
