Talk:Sylvia Robinson

message: I noticed that almost every lyric page gets the lyrics for Pillow Talk wrong by including the nonsensical lines: 
'My friends tell me wrong from right, I'm going to borrow their PANTS [my emphasis] some dark and lonely night'
The correct lyric is: 
'I'm going to borrow their PAD [my emphasis] some dark and lonely night.'
This almost universal error seems germane to an online Sylvia bio insofar as 'Pillow Talk' is her one signature hit, so it's not only funny but ironic that almost everyone gets it wrong. http://www.metrolyrics.com/pillow-talk-lyrics-sylvia.html

message: Atricle stated: 
"As a solo performer and billed as Sylvia (not to be confused with the country singer of the same name) she released the single "Pillow Talk" in 1973, a song she had originally hoped would be recorded by Al Green, who turned it down, because it was too risqué, and against his religion. She eventually recorded "Pillow Talk" and released it in 1973." 
I reworded this part of the article as follows, and included the record label mention:
"As a solo performer and billed as Sylvia (not to be confused with the country singer of the same name) she recorded and released the single "Pillow Talk" on the Vibration label in 1973. She had originally hoped Pillow Talk would be recorded by Al Green. But he who turned it down, because it was too risqué, and against his religion." 
Sylvia's Pillow Talk was released on the "Vibration" label. I have verified the label name in the Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits, 7th Edition by Joel Whitburn (Pg 619). GaryZ45RPM (talk) 13:54, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

message: The sentence in this article referring to "Pillow Talk" being used in subsequent songs:
The drumming rhythm would reappear in 1985 on Kate Bush's "Running Up that Hill", then again in 1987 on Fleetwood Mac's "Big Love".
needs substantiating or at least a citation.  Where does that info come from?  I do not hear what they are hearing in the later songs, so this sounds dubious.  According to the website "Who Sampled", it isn't sampled.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.228.133.208 (talk) 20:00, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
