Say Say Say (Waiting 4 U)

Hi-Tack

Gusto

WE SAY

This was one of the buzz records at Popkomm and now it looks set to be the biggest of the dance records releasing in that January period when dance hits often break through. It's playlisted at Radio 1 and it's Scott Mills' record of the week, capping specialist support from Jules, Galaxy, Party Capital, Friday Night Kiss and numerous regional jocks. So looking like another smash for Michael Jackson (as is the dance version of Man In The Mirror, coming out February on All Around The World).
