Also, must have been the first Michael Jackson lead since pre 1979 not to be A Listed. No wonder Kylie beat him!

But how do you know it wasn't A-listed subsequently?

You Rock My World was A-listed the following week

It was also the most played on MTV and VH1, plus support from Radio 2 (Kylie was snubbed there).

Forgot MJ - You Rock My World was as recent as 2001!

Tune of the Weekend is Anderson .Paak & Cordae - A Good Day

I kinda guessed with the date it was released at the same time as the Kylie song.

Not even totally sure that would've been playlisted (@Sempachorra can probably confirm)
