That's not one of the Police's better songs, so I'll vote for George Michael.

If it doesn't pick back up in a minute I'll cut the needed votes back down to three for the rest of the night, and cast the deciding vote myself.
I will be right back.

George Michael moves on. -------------------------------------------------- The Police, like Madonna seem to be liked by the random seeding generator. For this match I'm putting the voting back up to 4, depending on how fast it goes it may or may not be the last of the night. The Police - King Of Pain"King of Pain" is a song by The Police, originally released on their 1983 album Synchronicity. It was released as a worldwide single by A&M Records. It was the second single from Synchronicity in the US and the fourth single in the UK. Reaching #3 in the US charts in October 1983, the single is The Police's most successful US single (together with "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic") after "Every Breath You Take" based on chart position. In the UK, it reached #17 in the charts in January 1984. Interestingly, "King of Pain" was the only single from the Synchronicity that did not have an accompanying music video. Vs. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean"Billie Jean" is a 1983 hit single from Michael Jackson's Thriller album. A number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100, the song was also the number-one R&B single for nine weeks in the United States and is widely acknowledged as one of Jackson's most critically acclaimed songs. It was voted best single of the year in The Village Voice Pazz & Jop critics' poll, and received two Grammy Awards in 1984 in the categories Best Male R&B Vocal Performance and Best New Rhythm & Blues Song. It was nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, along with "Beat It", at the Grammy Awards of 1984. In 2005, Blender magazine recognized "Billie Jean" as the greatest song since 1980.[1] On March 6, 2006, "Billie Jean" was re-released as a single as part of Visionary - The Video Singles box set. It went on to become the highest charting UK Visionary single, reaching #11 on the UK Top 40. Largely because of the impact of the video, and the live performance in which Jackson dons a black fedora, a sparkly black jacket and a single white sequin glove while performing his most famous dance step the moonwalk, and the overall haunting nature of the song itself, "Billie Jean" is regarded by some as his signature song.

MJ moves on unsurprisingly. ---------------------------------------------------- I got a feeling I know who's goin' down here: Huey Lewis & The News - Hip To Be Square"Hip To Be Square" is the title of a 1986 single by Huey Lewis & the News written by Bill Gibson, Sean Hopper, & Huey Lewis. The song landed at #3 at the Billboard Hot 100. The song was featured in the film American Psycho during a scene in which Patrick Bateman dances to the song and brutually murders a colleague with an axe. It was originally featured on the accompanying soundtrack, but shortly after it was released, the CD was pulled from the shelves and the song was removed before being reissued, but a small number had already been sold. Reports suggested that Huey Lewis had objected to the context in which his song was used in the film and demanded it be removed from the CD.[1][2] In reality, there was no objection over the context. Although the film's production team had paid for the rights to use the song in the film, the rights to include it on the soundtrack were overlooked. When the soundtrack was released with the song on it, Huey Lewis had it withdrawn, as the soundtrack rights had not been secured.[3] Vs. New Kids On The Block - Covergirl"Cover Girl" is a 1989 single from New Kids on the Block. The fifth single from their multi-platinum second album Hangin' Tough, it peaked at #2 on The Hot 100 Singles Chart in October. "Cover Girl" was one of two New Kids on the Block songs in the top ten in October 1989, the other was "Didn't I (Blow Your Mind)".

Hip to be Square.
As for the Police, rather have them out this early then having them somewhere in the higher rounds because of weak competition.
