Say Say Say, released in 1983, was written and performed by which two artists?
Say It Isn't So (Hall &amp; Oates song) "Say It Isn't So" is a song by American duo Daryl Hall & John Oates written by Daryl Hall. It was released by RCA Records in October 1983 as the first of two new singles from their compilation album "Rock 'n Soul Part 1", released that same year (see 1983 in music). The song was remixed as a "special extended dance mix" by John "Jellybean" Benitez, which topped "Billboard" magazine's Hot Dance Club Play chart. The song peaked at number 2 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 for four weeks, coincidentally behind "Say Say Say" by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson.
Joy (Marvin Gaye song) "Joy" is a 1983 single released by Marvin Gaye, the final single issued from his "Midnight Love" album. The song, which was built around a funk vibe, was inspired by Gaye's religious background, which had also inspired songs such as "God is Love", "Everybody Needs Love" and "Praise". Gaye introduced the song as a tribute to his father during his 1983 concert tour.
