Even if it would be Richie it would be a mistake. As I said whoever choose the singles, that could be everyone. Do you think if it would be Richie's decision it would make it any better?

I personally think it's the record company's choice. At least I read somehwere that Jon originally wanted to publish Just Older as a single instead of Say it isn't so or Thank you but the record company didn't want it. Just Older would have been the far better choice.
