Say You, Say Me

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Say You, Say Me" is a song recorded by Lionel Richie. It hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on December 21 in 1985. The Academy Award winning song was featured on the soundtrack of the movie White Nights featuring Mikhail Baryshnikov and Gregory Hines. However, the song is not available on the movie soundtrack album. Motown Records did not want Lionel's first single since the Can't Slow Down album to appear on another record label. It also does not appear on the subsequent album release Dancing on the Ceiling, but does appear on several greatest hits releases.
