Duet Tuesday

In this edition of Duet Tuesday, I am featuring two music legends - Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney - as they perform "Say Say Say."


"Say Say Say" has a meaningful history for both Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney.

The song was written by Paul McCartney and performed by Jackson and McCartney.  

"Say Say Say," as a song from McCartney's 1982 album, Tug of War, was released in 1983.

"Say Say Say" was a year shy of the iconic duet "The Girl Is Mine" for Michael Jackson's Thriller album.

(A full background behind "The Girl Is Mine" can be found on Wikipedia.)

"Say Say Say" honors -
- No. 1 in the U.S., Canada, Norway, and Sweden
- No. 2 in the UK
- Top 10 in Australia, Austria, New Zealand, The Netherlands, Switzerland, and 20 other countries
