Star Song Communications is a Christian record label that was started in 1976 by Wayne Donowho,who recruited his friend Darrell Harris. It gained notoriety when it issued Resurrection Band's ground-breaking debut album, Awaiting Your Reply in 1978. Originally a distribution deal was made with Benson Records. From 1983 until 1986 distribution was done by Word Records. After that, a deal was made with Sparrow Records. Independent distribution was started in 1989 and picked up distribution for ForeFront records and DC Talk in 1991. This distribution was maintained until the sale of the company to EMI and the launch of Chordant Distribution in 1994.
Pure Metal Records was acquired from Refuge Records in 1990.
In 1998 it was announced that Star Song would only be used to issue reprints and their artists would be transferred to Sparrow.
The My Little Pony franchise debuted in 1982, the creation of American illustrator and designer Bonnie Zacherle. Together with sculptor Charles Muenchinger and manager Steve D'Aguanno, Bonnie submitted a design patent in August 1981 for "an ornamental design for a toy animal". She was then working for Hasbro. The patent was granted in August 1983.
Flutter Ponies are ponies with tiny bodies, curly hair, longer legs than regular ponies and fairy-like wings. They were first released in 1986. The Flutter Ponies may appear delicate, but in truth, they possess a powerful ability called the Utter Flutter, which allows them to blow away everything in their path by flapping their wings in a rapid speed. They are rarely seen, preferring to live in seclusion, usually in Flutter Valley. Honeysuckle, Morning Glory and Rosedust were the only notable ones in the first My Little Pony series.
The Seaponies are brightly colored seahorse-like creatures who dwell in the rivers and lakes of Dream Valley. They love underwater polo and can perform elaborate songs and dance numbers. They were first released in 1983 and only appeared in the two original specials. The Seaponies are based on the Hippocamp, a mythological creature shared by Phoenician and Greek mythology. A sub-line of the Seaponies called Baby Seaponies debuted later in 1985 and later in My Little Pony: The Movie.
There she is, never letting go
In a monastery inside Soho
There's a paintbrush
In a painted hand
And she's caring for me
Cause she cares for her man
Whoa
She's a poor crusader
On a distant ship
She's a miner for time
On a broken tip
She's a fiery deity
She's a pauper in this society
It can't phase her
It can't put her down
It can't phase her
It can't put her down
She's looking out the window
Catching the full moonbeams
She's looking out the window
Checking out what she can see, yeah
Cause there she is, never letting go
In a monastery inside Soho
There's a paintbrush
In a painted hand
And she's caring for me
Cause she cares for her man
