As I write, tears are running down my cheeks. I met my husband to be 42 years ago and when we were at a dance, he held me close and sang to me as the place was filled with the strains of Three time a Lady. That was the first time he said I love you! He still tells me everyday after 38 years of marriage. My heart fills with joy, love and tears at the memory you have given us Lionel. Bless you my friend.
So many warm loving moments, thanks to Lionel. He was my favorite singer back then and remains so now. I felt like I was reading our story when I read yours. May you have many more. God bless you.
I just found out he wrote this song about his mother. I can't stop crying now, listening to this. Thank you for writing this. I love and miss you, Mom.
One of my husband nd I favorite song. I'm so sad because this song is just a part of our memories. Five years ago he passed away. I'm now alone listening this song. 💕
I was 18 in 1978 when this came out. My first true love sang this to me while we danced. Brings back a bittersweet memory and my heart can still feel the weight of those words. Puts me way back to that very moment. I was so happy then. Thank you Lionel Richie for a moment in time and a feeling I don't every want to forget.
I think this song could be about any woman that made an impact in your life, it doesn’t really have to be about a wife or a girlfriend but it could be about them too. I’m lucky a had a lot of great aunts in my life.
I dedicate this song to the father of my children. He is fighting to survive stage four pancreatic cancer, and we have not been permitted to talk nor visit with him by his Wife. Therefore, I shall continue, in the power of prayer for Almighty God to touch and heal this body with supernatural healing. I can't imagine him not living, in this world, therefore, I am praying interceding for a miracle. His name is Sammie L. Mitchell, Sr.
If you listening with these kind of songs until now and accidentally read my comment. Don't forget that God have a purpose and He always love you. There are so many gifts I want to give to you. Peace, love, joy, happiness are all presents I am sending your way
I cry everytime i hear this song, as well as 95% of all his other songs, they touch the heart and soul and the very deepest folds of our inner emotions, Thanks Lionel, ur one of the greats!
I would of like very much to tellmy wife in words rather than in song this song simplify her mentally spiritually emotionally phisically and gracefully strong which gives me the strenth to carry on she passed on almost 2 mths ago
yes three times a lady, I remember in 1980, my daughter and husband was up stairs singing this song along with Lionel Richie and tape it them singing and my daughter was about 6yrs old the was in 1980, its 2017, now and she is 43, an told her that when she get married I was going to play it in her wedding day thanks Mr. Richie for that song love you niceness... dolores d.
Lionel, man. Just want to say, you forever soothe my savage soul . Always putting my aching bleeding heart at ease. Always knowing what keeps my Blackfoot Cherokee white ask from going postal.
Never knew this was written by him about his wonderful mother... Beautifully written. I hear it and understand it in so much of a different way. I hear it now for my mom... May they RIP.
Em 1978 estava no ensino médio e os colegas da minha sala cantavam essa música p mim por chamar-me Zuleide....Three times zuleide, era assim que eles cantavam....brincadeiras à parte, música linda e traz muitas lembranças da juventude.
Hi.this song reminds me of my High school days...that was back in 1978..threw 1982...when love was true love...and prom.nights...it was so nice back then...l miss all that...thank you ..for the memories...☺
É impressionante como o mundo ,as pessoas mudam, a poesia se acaba ,e só fica a saudade ,de poetas e cantores, como Lioneal e muitos outros, quê bom existir esse resgate, e muitos jovens de bom gosto hoje ,ficam admirados quando escutam ,essas pérolas em forma de melodias,baladas e canções , e compara com as músicas de hoje .e mudam as suas visões ,e só escutam essas obras raras ,obrigado a esses heróis do bom saudável resgate .
Such a superb modern day poet: with imitable flair and polish: a creative gift that soars beyond the heavens: to conjure up such exquisite phases, vivid, picturesque, striking and so very explicative that they stay written on yourr brain waves. What could depict a "laid back", calm unruffled, imperturbable person as gorgeously as the phrase "Easy like Sunday Morning". And what could describe a beautiful, gracious, elegant, stylish, polished woman as all encompassing as the phrase "Three times a Lady". One is left speechless!!!!!!! And a kind, uber generous, sweet, gentle man judging from the show on which I see him. But please do write some more songs, Mr. Lionel.
My husband and I ,played this at our engagement party and at our wedding,it was our song I have all Lionel s albums,adorable just luv him luv teresa and peter we ve been married 38years.
Beatiful Song My Sweetheart ❤❤ MY Music .Fez essa música para a mãe dele. Saudades vida Minha mãe. Não consigo parar de chutar. ❤❤❤ 2024....... Alguém ouvindo essa música Linda ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Mil Vezes Linda 😘🥰 música 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Just watched a video of him saying he wrote this song for his mother. I had to listen to it all over again from that perspective. Always a beautiful song.
Great song, magnificent I would say, written by Lionel Richie, it is part of his private collection, a song that has its origins in his family, precisely in the appreciations and considerations of his father towards his mother, three times lady to be one great lady, great mother and great friend.Beautiful voice, unique and deep ; clear, simple and harmonious words. It can be considered as a declaration of love ? Definitely yes, authentic, sensitive with a touch of depth and sweetness.....it's like a caress....beautiful!!!! Thank you for this find here… Thank you .😊😊😊.
A song I dedicate to myself. I usually sing when I'm at a high or at a low...reminds me, I'm 3 times a lady. Once in a lifetime edition. This song humbles and elevates me at the same time.
Amazing song. Even more moving when we think it was written for his mother. Hope the end of the rainbow my mom and I shared take many, many years to get.
WOW . I remember working at the American consulate , and The Vice President singing that song, I learned by him that it was referring in his song to his grandmother . 1979-1980 . Lovelly memorie . God bless you Lionel
My dear dad died on the 16th of April this year and I'm a very sceptic person. But I woken up one morning hearing this song faintley with no idea where it was coming from and I hope it was my dad. May sound silly but I hope. Beautiful song xx
Você compartilhou meus sonhos, minhas alegrias, minhas dores Você fez minha vida valer a pena E se eu tivesse que viver minha vida toda novamente Eu gastaria cada e todo momento com você.
incredible, so laid back, so touching, so smooth, so appropriate in the love song genere, the Girls cry unashamed, the boys remember their first loves, and surely their best, and obviously wasted opportunities and lost times. Put this song on and the dance floor even today, in 2016, and it is full of old, not so old, and new young loves just appreciating a moving song, just simple and straight to the heart
Had the pleasure to see Lionel last week at the 02 London.without a doubt the best singer I've ever seen the man is a legend a genius a gentleman worth every penny thanks Lionel 😊😊😊😊
Love this song . It was an old favorite with me and my partner then it was played at my 101 year old Grans funeral. G.B.N.F Gran you were and always will be three times a lady and i love you. xxxx
One of my first boyfriends used to play this to me. At 21, he was five years older than I & we met at a friend's barbeque, in the summer of 1983. He decided almost immediately that he loved me, but at 16, my life was just starting. He studied accountancy at Aberdeen University but, with just one year to go, he decided to clear out his room & move home (to be with me). He was at my parents' home every morning at 8am, or before & never left me 'til late at night. He was very loving & never, "tried it on", physically. However, the schedule he was insisting we kept gave this 16-yr-old barely any time to think. And so, after just a number of weeks, I had to tell him that it was over. He was such a nice guy but also felt it no problem (despite often arriving for the day in the early morning) to tell me that I needed to wash my hair as I was "too pretty" to have unkempt hair & to not yet have my make-up on. He eventually said goodbye but with a letter, entrusted to my mother saying he'd never get over me & to change my mind, accompanied a piece of jewelery. He eventually became a policeman. I have not seen him in years but somehow feel complicet in his giving up a career in accountacy & told my husband this. He, wisely said that he had made his own choice in life, I didn't strong arm him into it. To have 3 sisters, he was remarkably clumsy with females. I still wonder about Martin Wills & wish him well. I'm sure he knows who this is.
As I write, tears are running down my cheeks. I met my husband to be 42 years ago and when we were at a dance, he held me close and sang to me as the place was filled with the strains of Three time a Lady. That was the first time he said I love you! He still tells me everyday after 38 years of marriage. My heart fills with joy, love and tears at the memory you have given us Lionel. Bless you my friend.
So beautiful story!
So many warm loving moments, thanks to Lionel. He was my favorite singer back then and remains so now.
I felt like I was reading our story when I read yours. May you have many more. God bless you.
Nobody can sing this song like Lionel , God bless you my friend
Essa música marcou muito a Minha Vida 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I just found out he wrote this song about his mother.
I can't stop crying now, listening to this.
Thank you for writing this.
I love and miss you, Mom.
I am so glad I lived when Lionel Ritchie did, he is just awesome. A true musical legend.
Me too.
One of my husband nd I favorite song. I'm so sad because this song is just a part of our memories. Five years ago he passed away. I'm now alone listening this song. 💕

Ann Korn does he still?

Moro no Estado do Pará. Brasil. Escuto Lionel desde jovem. Hoje com 56 anos.
I think this song could be about any woman that made an impact in your life, it doesn’t really have to be about a wife or a girlfriend but it could be about them too. I’m lucky a had a lot of great aunts in my life.
I have said it numerous times about Mr.Lionel Richie he is truly 1 of the greatest song writers of this era !! Bar none !!
My Handsome Lionel Richie, thats all I can say, over the years I tried to meet him in person but only his show I get to see him in life, God bless him

I cry everytime i hear this song, as well as 95% of all his other songs, they touch the heart and soul and the very deepest folds of our inner emotions, Thanks Lionel, ur one of the greats!
They still do touch the heart and soul. I lost my wife almost years ago and his songs remind me of her. Great memories.
I would of like very much to tellmy wife in words rather than in song this song simplify her mentally spiritually emotionally phisically and gracefully strong which gives me the strenth to carry on she passed on almost 2 mths ago
