Released from their album, Hot on the Tracks, it would become one of their biggest hits, spending two weeks at the top of the Hot Soul Singles chart and becoming their second Billboard Hot 100 top ten, peaking at number seven. The song was written and sung by Lionel Richie.
Omg how young Lionel Richie looks ....
ReplyDeleteGreat song. We've never seen the Commodores but did see Lionel Richie a couple of times. Great show. How are you doing?

ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteI'm with John, this is new to me, too. I can't believe this is the first time hearing this old song. I loved the Commadores, too. Like you, I can't believe February is just about gone. It went fast, didn't it? Thanks for spreading the love through mewsic this month and I'm sorry I wasn't able to make it every day. Have a good weekend, my dear!
