    Music was so much more about romance & storytelling in the 80's. My generation was so lucky.

      Sarah holland And they were all movie soundtrack worthy. As a guy I had a difficult time telling my friends I enjoyed this music. I enjoy all genres, but a little embarrassed for listening to “romance” music.

      I'm 42, and I can see that "mainstream" formats such as radio and TV have changed focus a lot since the old days. But in 2020, you can find music in SO MANY more places. There are still many talented young artists singing beautiful songs. You just have to know where to look in this day and age. Turn your gaze from the focus of mass media and zoom out...way out. There are thousands and thousands of artists online now that the age of physical album sales is breathing it's last breath.

    India, I just love your reactions. I have a story about Lionel that you might like. About 18 - 20 years ago my wife and I bought tickets to his concert. it was outdoors in an arena that was sold out. All 15,000 people waited and waited as the time for the start of the concert came and went. Over two hours passed and still nothing. One of many amazing facts about that night is that less than 500 people gave up and left. Lionel's management would come out every 30-45 min with explanations and updates. As it turned out; his plane had to fly around a storm to get to us, Finally a Greyhound bus pulled up and musicians poured out. The last one out was Lionel, smiling and happy to be safe on the ground. Lionel walked up to the mic and he was visibly moved. He said that it made him so sad that he was so late. He was very up-front with the audience that he had less than 30 min to play, then he had to run back and catch another plane. He begged all of us to keep our ticket stubs and no mater what he would come back as soon as it could be arranged. He then proceeded to give the best 25 min concert I've ever been to. His voice is totally on point, and he is a wonderful entertainer. The crowd was crazy the whole time. It was short but magical. He reminded everyone to keep the stubs. Then he was gone. About 6 weeks later it was announced that Lionel was on his way back, and had booked the brand new Basketball Arena in town. The announcement came with instructions... You could either just use your ticket stub for admission to the bigger, better show, or if you took your stub to the arena days before the show you could get a pass to bring a friend (date, mom, friend)! The next concert, Lionel flew in the day before so that there could be no issues this time. The "real" concert was an incredible 2.5 hours long! Mr. Richie is a class act and a great human being. What an incredible show and an incredible performer.

      What a wonderful story, I just love to hear about artist that love there fans enough to not only want to see them but give them their money’s worth for their ticket! I remember the first time I saw Luther Vandross live in the mid 80’s he came out and rocked three big hits back to back, and told the fans “ I’m not gonna mess with your ticket money!” And Adele loves her fans too , she had 3 sold out shows in Phoenix in the middle of her 25 Tour in 2016 and couldn’t play one of those nights from sickness, she came back and did the show on the last night of her tour months later!

    Had a mad crush on a college friend back in the day. We were at the dance club in 1986 and I had them play this song and asked her to dance. Sang this song along in her ear and kissed her at the end. We spent the next 7 years together until it heartbreakingly ended. Still think she was the one I was looking for. Never found one like her since.

    The Lady who played Laura is Laura Carrington who was on General Hospital in the 1980's. Over the years it was a common practice for Soap Opera Actors to make cameo Appearances in Videos. From The Young & The Restless, Days Of Our Lives, Guiding Light, and All My Children many have appeared in them.

He was also the Assistant for the "Original" production o Dreamgirls to Michael Peters and both would sadly die of AIDS

    Over 20 years ago Lionel came to London on tour and a couple guy friends suggested we go as a group to see him. We girls said yes as a kind of joke as we though he was really cheesey, but his intro on to stage was 'Hello' and it started with an extended score. We all got the chills as the lights went down and the music built up with his silhouette appearing. AMAZING SHOW and that will teach us to be so judgemental!!!

    I have always liked Lionel Richie. What really reinforced my respect for him was when he helped Shania Twain come back to singing after her bitter breakup. He just kept nudging, not pushing her to try. They finally worked to record My Love, in a bedroom of his bungalow in the Bahamas. He showed her that she still had a gift that she could and needed to share. He is a class act.

    Lionel had an amazing live set at Glastonbury, but it was taken down on youtube a while ago. Now there are only clips of people filming it from the crowd on their phones.

    I've loved this song since the 80s. But I've never seen the video before.
    Always loved Lionel Ritchie songs. I guess I found out about him through Kenny Rogers. And the fact that some of his songs were played on country radio.

    The stalker theme seems to be popular in the 80s. Other hits from that era with lyrics reflecting that include "Private Eyes" by Hall & Oates and "Every Breath You Take" by The Police.

      Back when "No" meant "try harder". Great time to be alive!🤣
