Just noticed that the page for the artist of this song says it was recorded when she was 13 but this page says it was when she was 11. Needs clarification. 194.176.105.152 (talk) 16:48, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- Now I actually think she was born in 1946, but the song was released in 1958 when she was 12. And probably she recorded it at 12 too.
Look at the photo at Discogs, the label says: RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1958.
Or maybe they postponed the release, I don't know...- [1]: "Dot made available its distribution facilities to Crystalette for national release of "Pink Shoe Laces," waxed by 12-year-old Dodi Stevens. Similarly, it took over distribution for Tender Records' "No Kiss," backed with "Can't Get Over It," recorded ..." (Billboard, 2 February 1959) — Does it mean it had been released already?

- But the current source is a reliable source by Wikipedia standards. What do you propose we should do? --Moscow Connection (talk) 17:15, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
