Sasha - If you believe
View this Thread in Original format

I was looking through winamp's electronica/dance video collection and I came accros this song. This song is anything but electronica. It's more like something David Bedingfield would sing. Is this another case of Oakenfolditis?

Turns out they did, or at least came close to it. Alexander Coe (The Sasha we all know) has rights to the name outside of Germany, not in the country (there he has to use 'DJ Sasha' instead). Sasha the pop star has to use Sasha Alexander for US release (which is still confusing, since 'Alexander' is Coe's first name).

Here's an article I dug up:

Thanks....interesting article

On the winamp website the name "Sasha" is used instead of "Sasha Alexander." Not sure if it's just an error from the Nullsoft team....

Why is it called "Sasha Alexander" if the German Sasha's real name is not Alexander? :conf: :whip:
Mr. Pink

he should just change his name completely.

if there's already one sascha, that's enough.

God forbid we have two Britney's:wtf:

"It was a complete mess," Coe said. "He was sending white labels out to these records stores with just the name Sasha on them, and it was this horrible, cheesy pop music. The guy has definitely tried to capitalize off my name. I've worked very hard to build my name. For some cheesy pop artist to use it is nonsense."
