      I really dig "Penny Lover" as well. There were a few years when Lionel Richie was so prolific, hit after hit after hit. He had those creative juices flowing in overdrive.

    Oh, yeah. Lionel Richie is one of the very best artists out there. I used to use his songs in teaching English as a second language, for many reasons. I think Sail On is one of his best.

    • @lauriee5200
      @lauriee5200 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    When you said "new group, the Commodores" it was clear you had no idea what was coming. I'm sure most of us were saying "wait for it"! I was already tearing up and then, "Wait! That's Lionel Ritchie!" Like, what's he doing here? Oh man, this is one of my favorite reactions ever. Right up there with "whoever this singer is, he's really good" about Freddy Mercury.
    Love you JV! You make my day. Congrats on 50k subs! Don't be shocked when it's hundreds of thousands. Your honesty, innocence and vulnerability are rare qualities in today's society. That's what keeps us coming back.

    When going thru my divorce in 1980/81, The commodores song "Still" made me cry a lot but it got me thru it. My ex passed away and never knew this was my song to him about our marriage. This was a great band and a great song reaction. Easy, is such a chill song.

It took quite a while for them to gel and as soon as they did, they drove up to Wish bone Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama where Terry Woodford And Clayton Ivy cut some HOT FUNK called Machine Gun. That blasted the doors open and the rest was history!

    "Car Wash" by Rose Royce; a must. A funky, uptempo dance-monster. If you aren't movin' to "Car Wash," your car's gonna be dirty forever. The movie is an all-time classic as well. The rapper Daddy Rich got his name from that movie.

    I went to an all girls private school in Hawaii and one of my favorite teachers in senior year had went to college with the members of the commodores (idk if it was a couple or all of them).
    They came in concert and she took me and a couple of her other favorite students to the concert and took us backstage to meet the group.
    Great memory. Love you Mrs T!

    Your reactions can, genuinely, ALWAYS put a smile on my face. Its so fun to see someone discover AND appreciate, too, my favorite bands and voices I've loved and grew up on my entire life. I've taken that for granted until now....
    .... so it comes to this. I have a fun suggestion and it involves another NEW ARTIST who also has a "once in a lifetime voice"!!!!!
    I want to know which "Sherry" song is your favorite from these 3 artists
    Steve Perry-Oh Sherrie 1984
    Stevie Wonder-My Cherie Amore 1969
    And my I introduce you to, Frankie Vali and the four seasons-Sherry 1962
    Thanks hope you enjoy!!!!

    Found this on the Commodores:
    Commodores is an American funk and soul band, which was at its peak in the late 1970s through the mid 1980s. In 1977 the Commodores released "Easy,"
    which became the group's biggest hit yet, reaching No. 4 in the US,
    followed by "Brick House," also top 5, both from their album The Commodores. The group reached No. 1 in 1978 with "Three Times a Lady."
    In 1979 the Commodores scored another top-five ballad, "Sail On,"
    before reaching the top of the charts once again with another ballad, "Still."
    In 1982, Lionel Richie left to pursue a solo career
    Thanks for your reaction, Jay..... Take care and be well. Peace.

  • @budmaynard5952
    @budmaynard5952 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Great song! Takes me back to High School dances. The Commodores were really big back in the late seventies. Another great ballad is 'Three Times a Lady', and then there's 'Brick House' where they get down and funky and rock out! A personal favorite is a funky rocker instrumental called "Machine Gun" which sounds a lot like Billy Preston who you should also check out sometime (Nothing from Nothing, Space Race, Will it Go Round in Circles). Thanks for listening.
    Peace from SF

    Lionel Richie started with The Commodores and then became a solo, this album was their first and just skyrocketed in the charts in the 70s! I was very lucky to see them in person twice. In person they were just as good as they were on their albums. And the show they put on while singing all those songs was unforgettable

    I knew your reaction to seeing Lionel would be fantastic to see and oh boy it was definitely that Jayvee. I loved him in the Commodootrs and I love his songs solo. My favourite with the group is Once, Twice Three times a Lady and my solo is Hello. I think he has a smooth and rich voice which shows his emotions, and the words come across so clearly, a great singer. I am still chuckling over your reactions sweetheart, so honest and genuine, you're great my friend. Take care and stay safe please everyone, love and hugs and peace to you all Mary-Ellen UK

    Jayvee. I LOVE this song. In 1977 I was just retired from the U.S., Air Force - and my family had just broke up, Yes, was sad. I tried to hold it together - but no luck. Haven't heard this song for decades - still evokes bad memories for me. I'm a loyal fan Jayvee. You've got it together.

    I remember hearing this on the radio with my first boyfriend back when I was 16 and him saying " yeah I'm easy too, but I don't sing about it." Still makes me laugh.

    I just discovered your channel. Seeing you react to this was like hearing it for the first time again. I grew up on this music. The Commodores are legends. As you said, they had it all. Every one of them was incredibly talented.

    one of the best songs to come out in the 70s. I'm so glad I was a little kid and got to hear this on the radio. Just pure essence, pure talent.

    You had to have heard this song, it's everywhere, and anyone taking piano lessons make this one of their recital songs.

    That was awesome. I loved the look on your face when you realized that Lionel Richie was singing.. Not only does he play piano but he plays a mean sax .. We had so many great bands back in the day .. I wish we had that kind of music today...

    When you said "new group", I knew that you did not know Lionel Ritchie was in the Commodores ...loved your reaction when you saw him!! Love your reactions to the old music when you hear how good it is ... I was lucky enough to be there at the time. Watching you enjoy this great music is heartwarming and fun. Keep up the great work - you make a lot of us very happy! Thank you.

    Lol here. That's like the story of the two young girls leafing through albums in a British record store and one of them discovers a Beatles album and says to the other, "look, Paul was in a group before Wings".

    Love the Commodores and Lionel Richie. There were a few years there where he was just pumping out the hits. I'm not sure which year it was, but at the American Music Awards, he was winning everything.
    Incredibly talented singer/songwriter.
