[edit] Untitled

This article (and accompanying stat box) currently seem to be biased towards Kylie Minogue's version, while skimming past the 10 or so other musicians performing the song. If Kylie had written "Tears on My Pillow," I'd understand why the data box is strictly about her single, her album, her chronology (she didn't write it: Sylvester Bradford and Al Lewis wrote it). If she was the first to perform it, that's one thing (she's not: Little Anthony & the Imperials were first). If she were the first to have a hit with it, that's one thing (again, Little Anthony & the Imperials charted #1 with it). Before Kylie had even covered "Tears on My Pillow," New Edition and Sha Na Na had also performed it (Sha Na Na doing so in a soundtrack, also before Kylie did the same), in addition to the song being a #1 hit for Little Anthony & the Imperials. But since Kylie Minogue is a current pop star, apparently this encylcopedia article should include a highlight box accentuating her accomplishments alone, while glossing over the rest of the song's 48-year history? 66.17.105.226 00:38, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
