"Oh Jackie" by Tiffany from her second album Hold an Old Friend's Hand was only released in Japan in May 1989.

Other territories received the singles "Hold an Old Friend's Hand" and "It's the Lover (Not the Love)" within a similar time period, but neither performed well due to declining popularity in the west.

George Tobin is an American musical artist and record producer who has produced albums for a long list of musical artists including Robert John, Smokey Robinson, Kim Carnes, Kicking Harold, and PC Quest. He is best known, however, for discovering, managing, and producing the teenage singer Tiffany and showcasing her in malls across the country. From the 1980s, Tobin owned a large recording studio complex in North Hollywood, California, which was frequently rented by people making demo tapes and radio commercials. Tiffany was recording a demo at the studio at age 12 when Tobin heard her and decided that she could be a star; soon, he was managing and producing her. Under Tobin's management, Tiffany released two very successful albums, and toured for two years with New Kids on the Block. Although Tiffany separated from Tobin's management in 1989, the two briefly reunited to record the 1993 album Dreams Never Die which Tobin produced. Ultimately, the album only saw release in Asia before Tiffany and Tobin went their separate ways again.

"Radio Romance" is a song by American pop singer Tiffany, released as the second single from her second album, Hold an Old Friend's Hand (1988), in the US and first from the album in the UK and Australia. By early 1989 radio was changing and the genres played were switching to hip hop and R&B music. There was less room for young pop acts such as Tiffany. As a result, "Radio Romance" failed to achieve the success of her previous singles. It made the Top 40 in the US and managed to become a hit in the UK, where it reached #13. To promote the single in the US, Tiffany performed the song on the Mickey Mouse Club and The Arsenio Hall Show.
