I see lots of reason to doubt it. Just because it's the same name doesn't mean it's the same person. Why isn't it available on Cherry Valentine's official YouTube channel? Why was it never advertised on any of her social media channels? And why does it sound completely different from her previous two singles? Richard3120 (talk) 14:43, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Richard3120 I think I had assumed the song was by the subject because of this link, which refers to other songs confirmed by the subject. However, there's a chance Amazon is wrong here, so I remain skeptical and hopeful editors can help solve this riddle somehow. ---Another Believer(Talk)14:54, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds reasonable to me. And thanks for the notification. IMO you can't be too cautious when messing around with a consensus formed at FAC. Gog the Mild (talk) 16:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I share the concerns with this. The song sounds very different with Valentine's other work. On Apple Music, it is listed under a separate profile (here) than the one for Valentine's singles (here). Spotify lists them all in the same profile (here), but I have seen instances on Spotify where names are attached to songs that are clearly not theirs. I would remove it from the article if another source cannot be found to verify that it is really a song by Valentine. I could not find anything in my search. I think it is always good to be cautious and have an open discussion on things like this. Aoba47 (talk) 17:20, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Aoba47: yes, Spotify has never made any distinction between artists with the same name, so it means nothing that they are lumped together on that platform. All of Valentine's social media platforms (YouTube, Instagram, etc.) are still active, so you would think that if it really had been released as a "final work" it would have been mentioned and promoted on one of them... but nothing.
