Lately I've been surprised whenever I hear Potsie singing on HD reruns. I never noticed it much when I was a kid. I always used to think, I'd rather hear the original Bobby Darin version, or whatever other singer he was imitating.
But he's really got a great voice. "Put your head on my shoulder" sounded great in the ep where Joanie fell in love with him. I even like the covers like "Splish Splash."
"Pumps Your Blood" is good too. That's a hard song to sing well. Basically any original song he did sounded really good.
I don't think it really worked to make him a "nerd" when he had such musical talent at the same time. Those two elements didn't really complement each other.
