80s Music/song title/artist

Question
Can you think of the hit song (probably 80's)  that had the line "saaaay whaaaat" in it.  The line was delivered by a female several times during the song, but I am otherwise blanking on the details.  I have been racking my brain trying to come up with the answer.  It for sure is not Love Rollercoaster by The Ohio Players from the mid 70's, which also features the line "Say what?"  Please let me know if you can come up with anything.  Thanks!

Answer
Dear Mike,

It also took me almost a week trying to come up with anything out of your vague clue. I failed to come up with something believable, I'm sorry. This one's a long shot but it's the first thing that came out of my mind when I finished reading your letter. UNDERCOVER ANGEL by ALAN O'DAY. There's a familiar line in the song which went I SAY WHAT!.... but it was blurted out by the artist not by a female. Remember it's a long shot...

Maraming salamat po!!

Expertise

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
