So do you remember the song Say You, Say Me, All Night Long, the classic Endless Love or my favorite Hello? These are the masterpieces of the great song writer Lionel Richie, who is making his comeback doing a country album laced with special duets with the likes of Blake Shelton and Shania Twain.
I remember the Hello video distinctively as the clay is molded in his head and face. A little creep huh? Well I was young then, but not know then that those were the hits I would know for years to come.
The article in Billboard talks about this songwriter singer and how after all of these years coming back. Why he wants to come back doing duets with other stars basically taking the 'shine' off of himself. Gail Mitchell asks the question, "Why doesn't Lionel just do Lionel?" Lionel Richie discusses wishing he had done this a long time ago and it wasn't necessarily a purpose behind it, he just wanted to do it. His new manager says, "We just want to get Lionel back in people's living rooms again.
