replies: text: Why not? Wasn't Vanessa Paradis also 14 when she did Joe le taxi? It's 14 year old boys that cannot sing. --LA2 07:35, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You've got a point. Anyway, 1944 is the official year, and we should stick with it until or if there is contrary evidence, and even then, it should be clearly noted that 1944 is still the "official" birth year (see the Barbara Walters article for a similar controversy).

replies: text: Brenda Lee was indeed born in 1944. She starting singing in talent shows at just the age of five! She was first "Paid" for singing at the age of nine, and was first recorded on the 30th July 1956 aged 12. Vera, Chuck & Dave 17:00, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

message: The second paragraph includes the phrase "She was able to chart in Billboard's CW top ten twice in 1980."  It links to the "CW" disambig page, but there aren't any entries there that would make sense.  Does this mean Country Western?MichaelProcton (talk) 12:53, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

message: I remember listening to BBC Light Programme, maybe Saturday Club, with Brian Matthew talking to Brenda Lee. When Matthew asked Lee which she preferred Country or Motown, she said, "I prefer them both."
Thus the Brenda Lee choice.
(I can't exactly remember which music she was talking about.)
