    I knew Lionel when he was in the start of his career playing fraternity houses on football weekends at Auburn and U of Alabama. I crossed paths with him again when the Commodores played the stadium at 6 Flags over Georgia. Lastly, I drove a truck on the Dancing on the Ceiling tour. Lionel is a class act and a wonderful human being. Much respect!

      Fantastic! That's so cool. Fraternity row in the SEC is a wonderful time had by all. Some mega stars are just genuine souls. He and McGraw sound great.

      I saw the Commodores in Meridian, Mississippi, at the Temple Theater in the early 80s. Lord I love his voice! I commented as much on the 25th anniversary of the song for Africa We Are the World on here. He or someone said thank you. He’s a small town boy who made great! I wish he’d write and perform more now.

      Thank you for mentioning the song writing… it is often overlooked. The most talented singer/instrumentalist is almost nothing without a great song. Musicians come and go ( I know… I’ve probably only got 10 years left myself or-a few more…) but great songs remain. We’ve had some for decades and some for centuries.

I actually have blood relative's of different race and reguardless of what skin color or accent/slang or language you are or speak thats the way human race was made different! If you have been offended by someone else that's your own problem to deal with and move forward you seem like your basing facts on years ago about history or stereotypes who the hell that's living can go back and change that no one you can only focus on the present and future history is something you learn from but don't stay in it! I can take whatever and dish it out too i just don't project negativity online saying these people in this area are like this you don't know everybody in the world so you can't pass judgment then play victim and accuss a whole group of population in one area is a one way!

    Absolutely loved this. This song takes me back to my high school years. The late 70's can't be beat. I notice when two artists get together to sing a song together, they exponentially improve it. The same is true for the song Man on the Moon when Bruce Springsteen joined REM or when Earth Wind and Fire sings with Chicago. This was so amazing to have Lionel Richie and Tim McGraw singing together.

Lionels show was a tribute to him with all his country friends. Many of them have recorded songs that he has written over the years. He is an excellent song writer and singer. It was an awesome and entertaining show. We had a blast that weekend!

    My mom loved Lionel Richie! After she passed I started listening to him and singing his songs for her and I can understand why she loved him!
    Surprised I haven't seen this video before now, too! Awesome stuff!
