    To get things started, a magnificent tune from Lionel Richie’s magical years with Commodores: a funky, jazzy groove that set dancefloors alight in 1978 when it appeared on their Natural Highalbum. So, so cool, guys.

    Who was the world’s best-selling country singer in the 80s? You could argue it was Lionel Richie, who delivered one of his best mellow songs in 1984. Its unforgettable guitar hook and perfectly relaxed vocal attracted fans who would not normally have bought R&B songs – and R&B fans who would not normally have enjoyed country. And it sounded entirel...

    By 1981, Commodores were known on the singles market as a group that delivered slow love songs. But “Lady (You Bring Me Up)” was a reminder that these guys were good groovers throughout their career, even if ballads buttered their bread. Try to watch the amusingly retro video of the song, which finds Lionel Richie in a soccer goal while girls peppe...

    From 1983’s all-conquering Can’t Slow Down, “Running With The Night” was co-written with Lionel Richie’s regular collaborator/producer James Anthony Carmichael, and Cynthia Weil, who’d composed numerous pop classics such as “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’” and “Looking Through The Eyes Of Love.” This sound epitomizes early 80s US pop radio: moody,...

    Another song from Can’t Slow Down, and a No.1 hit almost everywhere it was released as a single – which was pretty much everywhere. One of Lionel’s strengths is his ability to deliver a track like this totally sincerely in a world that prefers to be knowing and cynical. The result is a smash like ”Hello”.

    Released in 1982, and taken from Lionel Richie’s self-titled debut solo album, the mesmerizing “Truly” made No.1 in the US, helped by Lionel’s sincere performance at the piano in the promotional film clip.

    Recorded with the group Alabama, “Deep River Woman” again explored Lionel Richie’s love of country sounds, creating this harmonious delight that became a 1986 country smash – because Lionel makes a success of anything he turns his talent to.

    Lionel Richie is so hot to trot that the floor is not enough for him! A wacky track, full of joy, “Dancing On The Ceiling” was a smash hit in ’86, boosted by a hugely expensive video directed by Stanley Donen, who’d directed Fred Astaire dancing on a ceiling in the 1951 movie Royal Wedding. If you look up and see footprints on your plasterwork, Lio...

    One of the amazing tracks that made Lionel Richie’s brilliant ballad style famous, this 1977 smash was released by Commodores at the start of spring and was still gaining airplay at the end of summer. A glorious glowing sound, as relaxed as a sleeping cat, Lionel’s fabulous vocal is perfectly supported by Thomas McClary’s guitar solo. Lionel releas...

    From 1986’s Dancing On The Ceiling, this subtle, deeply mellow US Top 10 single about tackling relationship problems features a delicate shadow vocal by Marva King of Prince’s New Power Generation, supporting Lionel Richie’s distinctive lead.
