Someone need to produce a full length documentary on The Commodores.
I think it deserves a miniseries. Thanks for watching the channel!
True

Totally agreed ... on the streaming video.
HIGH ON SUNSHINE and FANCY DANCER are two of my favorite underrated Commodores song.
Gotta go with Zoom and Just to be close to you, Thanks for supporting the channel CW
Heck yeah!!!
Excellent video. Lionel Richie is one of the most gifted songwriters of my generation and a class act.
He sure is no doubt about it!
I love the Commodores and Lionel Richie. Incredible music they made and I'm still listening to the Commodores now in 2022. I'm from Lesotho located in Southern Africa.
I loved the Commodores. They were one of the biggest groups around when I was in high school, from Machine Gun to Brick House. Later on I said about Lionel Richie...If he never does another album, he will always be able to make millions writhing songs.
Can't believe that The Commodores are not in The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame 🤔
Long overdue doggone it!!!
The Commodores were like brothers,media broke up a great musical relationship.
🎶🎶🎶🥰👑🥰🎼🎼🎼✋🤙من أجمل وأحلا وأفضل وأروع أغاني الزمن الجميل والفن الراقي والصوت المميز والجيل الذهبي لي لاينل ريتشي ولها ذكريات جميلة جدا جدا 🎉🎉
Ove Lionel Richi, he is so talented such a good singer. I have his records and also the Commodores too. I love them also. And always will love them all.
I love the commodores I start listening to the group in 1976 and over 30 years I play easy every Sunday thanks for this incredible group
Thank you so much for this Bio. I have always loved Lionel Richie. The intro and his historical perspective regarding T University was very interesting. I am 65 and grew up listening to all of Mr. Richie’s music. For my generation his words of reflection bring such sadness to my soul, but at the same time lighten my heart because he was an enormous success, beloved by many!
RAnn Thank you so much for supporting the channel
Either way with the commodores or solo either way they are all so gufted. Very smart all of them. I just cant say enough really.
There's definitely a Hillbilly connection between us
"Lionel Richie," and that's for certain. 🌹😊
Agreed, just listen to the song "Stuck on you" ua-cam.com/video/LwQwErZGQzg/v-deo.html
The opening act for the Jackson 5 back in the early 1970s. That had to be very interesting seeing that young talent developing at that age.
Is it possible for a reunion tour? Get JT Taylor back with Kool and Gang too? That would be a great summer outdoor concert! at night!
EC Thanks for supporting the channel. Lionel is set to tour with Earth Wind, & Fire this year. Not a bad show, thanks again!

He mentions that he didn't wanted to leave the Commodores but the press hounded him saying why is a guy like him with the Commodores and it was a stab in the heart not just for Richie but for the band members they even asked him if he was gonna do a solo record not a solo career, they were going to take a break but when Hello and All Night Long hit...
Motown was pushing him to go solo for a while, so it wasn't necessarily the guys in the group asking him if he wanted to make a solo song. The media played a huge role in dividing them. Once Motown decided to make the Commodores a pop group instead of a funk act, Lionel got all of the attention, which tore the group apart. Never the same after that.
@@MzJanuary But Nightshift won them their first Grammy
@@brianpratts Yes but that was their only post Lionel Richie hit.
@@brianpratts
Lionel won Grammys without them as well,
and he had multiple solo hits.
The Commodores only had
“Nightshift” after he left.
So,he didn’t need them to begin with.
@@jaylene.turner6524 ....actually, he did. He wouldn't have stepped out on his own
Great video and one of the most informative. Please post more especially about his solo career too.

BACK IN 1983 WHEN MOTOWN HAD THE 25 ANNIVERSARY LIONEL RICHIE DID NOT PERFORM W/ COMMORDORES AT THE REUNION
You should have stayed with the band ❤️ sweet love
Around music since I was a kid almost managed two different groups The Commodores Rock in a matter of speaking apparently from the beginning and you spiced it up I believe everybody involved would have made a lot more money as THE COMMODORES
I agree. Some artists made it big solo. James Brown, Bobby Brown, Dianna Ross, Beyonce. Correct me if I am wrong, but Lionel Richie did not have such huge solo success.
I am from Alabama, about 35 minutes from Tuskegee. The rumor I heard was that the song Endless Love killed the Commodores. During the production of that song Diana told him how the label got behind her and her career skyrocketed after leaving Supremes, not to mention how much more financially lucrative it is as a solo artist. Check out my other Lionel Richie video These Songs and let me know what you think.

@@asafaust8869 ....you're funny🤪

The Commodores are now being SNUBBED by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for 2022…while RICHIE is being nominated as a SOLO ARTIST. No offense, but I hope he DOESN’T get in….until THE COMMODORES as a GROUP are inducted. THEN put him in as a SOLO artist LATER.
Exactly. He started with the Commodores, the group as a whole needs to be inducted before Lionel by himself.
1000% percent makes no sense how they did rest of group
@@MrMichael19631963 ...All you guys make perfect sense!
I've always felt that way, since they broke up.
As for the rock hall of shame, maybe their holding a grudge?
The Commodores, burst onto the scene with funky anti Hollywood lyrics.
In some songs, they were always laying down positive messages though.
Before Lionel was made lead singer permanently.
Some of those in the position to make those decisions.
Probably have very thin skin....Just Saying?
Going solo is NOT "EASY". The whole show is YOU. With a group you get breaks. Solo it's all YOU. It's a HARD job.
I get it not "Easy" that's pretty funny. Thanks for watching! Check out the Lionel Richie These Songs video.ua-cam.com/video/LwQwErZGQzg/v-deo.html

Obviously it went downhill for ritchie really fast once he left the commodores
Downhill for Richie? How so? kindly elaborate
@@martinmonna6785 Sure, richie NEVER had another musical top hit once had the moronic idea to leave the commodores. Same thing happpend with Sting when left the police.
He was the Commodores.
It was time for him to leave,
and do his own thing.
Glad he’s finally going into the
Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.
Lionel Richie leaving the Commodores was akin to Jeffrey Osborne leaving LTD
@@bradnobl
And Michael Jackson leaving his family,
Jody Watley leaving Shalamar,
etc.
Shut up you don’t know what you’re talking about
No his solo music sucks he should’ve stay with band
@@MrMichael19631963
He had several hits.
The Commodores only had one after he left,
so they suffered.
He didn’t.
NOW LIONEL RICHIE STAY FAR AWAY FROM FROM BLACK FOLKS AS POSSIBLE
Sad but true, Lionel Richie today and Lionel Richie in 1976 are like two different people 🤔
