Diana Ross – Chain Reaction Remixes
“Chain Reaction” is a song by Diana Ross, written by the Bee Gees, who also provided the backing vocals for the single. The track was released on the album Eaten Alive in 1985 and as a single the following year.
The single became her first number 1 single in the UK since I’m Still Waiting in 1971. The song also reached number 1 in Australia and was the top selling single of the year (1986) in that country. The song fared less well in the USA where it initially peaked at number 95 on the Billboard Hot 100 late in 1985. A few months later, a remixed version of the song was issued as a single (Ross performed this version of the song on the American Music Awards, which she hosted that year). The new version re-entered the chart and performed better, but with the diminished momentum, it stalled at number 66.
