That' a good question john.

Curiosity aroused, took on board your point and did some digging.

I was unable to find an obvious direct way of single title pub date searching. Even entering a known song's title in the search engine box, although it finds the title, it doesn't list its associated pub date anywhere noticeably apparent I can see.

Selecting newest and genre then visually searching for the title from the presented pages' listings is the fastest way available I can determine too, and kinda' works OK pragmatically from just a few presented pages for most genres as long as the genre isn't Rock or Country. But the method is a kludge and an inarguably laborious way to have to search for the publication date of any singular specific title.
