Linda Scott (born Linda Joy Sampson, June 1, 1945, Queens, New York) is a former pop singer who was active in the early to mid 1960s. Her biggest hit was the 1961 million-selling single, "I've Told Every Little Star". She went on to place twelve songs on the charts over the next four years, the last being "Who’s Been Sleeping In My Bed," which was one of the first collaborations between the songwriting team of Hal David and Burt Bacharach.
Born in Queens, New York, Scott was 11 when she moved with her family to Teaneck, New Jersey and was still in school (Teaneck High School Class of '63) when she auditioned for Arthur Godfrey's CBS Radio show in 1959. After having won a place on the show, Scott and other young performers became regular guests on the show. During the show's run, the young singer came to the attention of Epic Records, and Scott made her recording debut (singing as Linda Sampson) with the single, "In-Between Teen".
Though still in high school, in 1961 she signed with Canadian-American Records, which had struck gold with the Santo & Johnny's "Sleep Walk". The label changed her performing name to Linda Scott, producing and releasing the hit "I've Told Every Little Star," a standard written by Oscar Hammerstein II and Jerome Kern for their 1932 production Music In The Air. The track sold over one million copies, earning Scott a gold disc.

Genres: Thriller,When things go wrong And there's no one around to me I look at you, star of blue And my troubles disappear.
Blue star When I am blue all I do is look at you For I've seen to find peace of mind And I never get lonely When you shine from above.
With you always up there I don't dare to have a care For I want to show that your glow lets me know that I'm not blue, blue star.
