71-yr-old white guy here: You've missed out, young man! I was in my late 20s when the Commodores came out with this song, & on Saturday nights I'd be slow-dancing with some fine lady when this song was playing- it made 'em melt EVERY TIME- Lionel had a voice that made panties drop all over the WORLD!! I could tell by the look on your face that you enjoy it now as much as I did back in the day!! Stay well!
Love me some Lionel Richie....listen to "Sail On", "Lady", "Still" and "Oh No"...that's some smooth, buttery love right there!

Oh, yeah. Lionel Richie is one of the very best artists out there. I used to use his songs in teaching English as a second language, for many reasons. I think Sail On is one of his best.

Yep my all time fav too....check out Sail On with Tim McGraw on Lionel’s Tuskegee album...soooo good!!!!
Lionel was in the Commodores from day one. This group had a lot of number one hits from the 70 s. You'll have to check out more songs. I use to dance to alot of them at the Discos in the 70 s.
"I'm easy like Sunday morning..." Chokes me up, man.
When you said "new group, the Commodores" it was clear you had no idea what was coming. I'm sure most of us were saying "wait for it"! I was already tearing up and then, "Wait! That's Lionel Ritchie!" Like, what's he doing here? Oh man, this is one of my favorite reactions ever. Right up there with "whoever this singer is, he's really good" about Freddy Mercury. Love you JV! You make my day. Congrats on 50k subs! Don't be shocked when it's hundreds of thousands. Your honesty, innocence and vulnerability are rare qualities in today's society. That's what keeps us coming back.

@@Tuesdays_Gone their school mates made fun of them unmercifully! No, it wasn't the kkk, it was their fellow black students. It took quite a while for them to gel and as soon as they did, they drove up to Wish bone Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama where Terry Woodford And Clayton Ivy cut some HOT FUNK called Machine Gun. That blasted the doors open and the rest was history!
Ahhhhhh yes. They are from Tuskegee Alabama. My university was just down the road. They were huge. Try Brick House.

When going thru my divorce in 1980/81, The commodores song "Still" made me cry a lot but it got me thru it. My ex passed away and never knew this was my song to him about our marriage. This was a great band and a great song reaction. Easy, is such a chill song.

This is my daddy’s favorite group! ❤️❤️❤️
As a white kid growing up in the 70's in country, bluegrass area, I listened to a lot of music the Commadores and Lionel Ritchie were one of my favorites, Lionel is absolute "LEGEND".
The Commodores' last hit came after Lionel Richie left the group. It is called Nightshift and is a tribute song to those soul artists who had passed as of that time.
More greats by the Commodores: "Zoom," "Sail On" "Sweet Love."

"(She's a) Brick House," "Sail On," "Still," " Lady (You Bring Me Up)" and "Three Times a Lady" are other great songs by the Commodores.
Sail on!
I am surprised when young people say they have never heard theses songs. I grew up with them as part my life.
I get such a buzz watching you love these old tune's. 👍🇬🇧
Great in the Commodores, or as a solo singer , so many songs fantastic .🤗
"Car Wash" by Rose Royce; a must. A funky, uptempo dance-monster. If you aren't movin' to "Car Wash," your car's gonna be dirty forever. The movie is an all-time classic as well. The rapper Daddy Rich got his name from that movie.

The Commodores are fabulous! In keeping with the vib you need to check out Midnight Train to Georgia by Gradys Knight and the Pips! You’ll love them too! Keep on doin’ what you’re doin’ and Peace Out!
Another song I remember hearing together with this one way back when is "Use Ta Be My Girl" by The O'Jays.
"Just to be close to you" Play it for your fav lady. And you're welcome Jayvee.
Found this on the Commodores: Commodores is an American funk and soul band, which was at its peak in the late 1970s through the mid 1980s. In 1977 the Commodores released "Easy," which became the group's biggest hit yet, reaching No. 4 in the US, followed by "Brick House," also top 5, both from their album The Commodores. The group reached No. 1 in 1978 with "Three Times a Lady." In 1979 the Commodores scored another top-five ballad, "Sail On," before reaching the top of the charts once again with another ballad, "Still." In 1982, Lionel Richie left to pursue a solo career Thanks for your reaction, Jay..... Take care and be well. Peace.

i LOVE MUSIC FROM ALL GENERES, I HAVE TO SAY THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME.
(Posting this comment under multiple videos to increase your chances of seeing it lol 😉) Your reactions can, genuinely, ALWAYS put a smile on my face. Its so fun to see someone discover AND appreciate, too, my favorite bands and voices I've loved and grew up on my entire life. I've taken that for granted until now.... .... so it comes to this. I have a fun suggestion and it involves another NEW ARTIST who also has a "once in a lifetime voice"!!!!! I want to know which "Sherry" song is your favorite from these 3 artists Steve Perry-Oh Sherrie 1984 Stevie Wonder-My Cherie Amore 1969 And my I introduce you to, Frankie Vali and the four seasons-Sherry 1962 Thanks hope you enjoy!!!!

I was a junior in high school when this song came out. Damn, I’m old. Great memories. His writing and performing is so heartfelt. By the way, Nicole Richie, his daughter. His friend couldn’t take care of their baby daughter and Richie let her stay with him and his family. He loved this child enough to make her his and adopted her. Sweet guy!

Lol here. That's like the story of the two young girls leafing through albums in a British record store and one of them discovers a Beatles album and says to the other, "look, Paul was in a group before Wings".
I went to an all girls private school in Hawaii and one of my favorite teachers in senior year had went to college with the members of the commodores (idk if it was a couple or all of them). They came in concert and she took me and a couple of her other favorite students to the concert and took us backstage to meet the group. Great memory. Love you Mrs T!

I KNEW you were going to pleasantly surprised to see Lionel! lol! Try their song "Brickhouse". Seems your getting into disco age music. THIS song was a gret song to waltz to. A few other disco era songs are "Everytime you go away" and "Oh Girl" by Paul Young
You had to have heard this song, it's everywhere, and anyone taking piano lessons make this one of their recital songs.
I have always loved Lionel Richey and the Commodores! What a voice! What a songwriter. Penned sone of the greatest songs ever. I enjoy your reactions! You are a bright light during dark time! Thank you!
Lionel Richie started with The Commodores and then became a solo, this album was their first and just skyrocketed in the charts in the 70s! I was very lucky to see them in person twice. In person they were just as good as they were on their albums. And the show they put on while singing all those songs was unforgettable
I Lionel Ritchie! He's by far one of the most talented men that's ever lived! Not only does he sing and play the piano, but he's one of the most prolific song writers that ever lived. He also has what's almost a magical ability to give his songs a "hook." A line in the song, usually the chorus, that just draws the listener in; making the song, itself, easier to remember the lyrics, but it also just makes you want to listen to it again and again. (The Bee Gees also have that ability, as well.) It's definitely a rare one. Thanks for your wonderful reaction. I'm glad you enjoyed this one, too.
Lionel Ritchie was a complete musician; he's a masterpiece
Absolutely one of the smoothest songs ever...always makes me smile, all the good feels on this one
This song is soooooo smooth. You picked a great first song of theirs. Love
I was fortunate to see The Commodores in concert during their heyday. The whole band was all glitzed up and the 1000's of attendees were all wearing Light-Up glow Necklaces. Great memory.
Great song! Takes me back to High School dances. The Commodores were really big back in the late seventies. Another great ballad is 'Three Times a Lady', and then there's 'Brick House' where they get down and funky and rock out! A personal favorite is a funky rocker instrumental called "Machine Gun" which sounds a lot like Billy Preston who you should also check out sometime (Nothing from Nothing, Space Race, Will it Go Round in Circles). Thanks for listening. Peace from SF
This is such a smooth song. And his voice is so soulful. The nostalgia takes us back. There is a comforting vibe to his voice that takes me back to my dad's vibe when he was around.
They have a lot of good stuff. Check out their song "Sail On"
This is one of my all time favorite songs! I was able to see Lionel in concert in June 2019. When I heard the first notes of Easy, I teared up. Incredible experience. By the way, my favorite Commodores album is Natural High. Give it a listen!
You see, this is what we grew up with, REAL music, talented artists, hit makers. you Definitely have to do more Commodores!!
What a great song and an amazingly talented group of artists. Great choice!
My very first concert. 8th grade. Yes, Sail On is awesome too.
He is so good, that's why he is still performing to-day.Your Mom & Aunt's would know this.

Jayvee. I LOVE this song. In 1977 I was just retired from the U.S., Air Force - and my family had just broke up, Yes, was sad. I tried to hold it together - but no luck. Haven't heard this song for decades - still evokes bad memories for me. I'm a loyal fan Jayvee. You've got it together.
Thank God you're wising up and experiencing all this incredible music.
One of my favorite songs of the era along with Sail On and 3 times a Lady
Brick House is one of my favorites from The Commodores. Their cassettes played on repeat in my car stereo back in the late 70s.
This is classic! I loved it as a kid and I still love it today! Never gets old!!
I love this ❤️ song!! ☺☮️
Give Sail On a listen. I think you'll enjoy it!
Heard this a thousand times in '77. Never got old.
Would love to see your reaction to Sail On, It's my favorite Commodores song, Perfection !
Have to say I used to listen to this with my dad, Christopher Cross and some of the other old school grooves from the real singer songwriters...teared up tonight with the power of music. Thank you brother
Love this song. Takes me back to 4th grade. Always loved this. They have so many good hits.
First group entertainment I ever saw in Concert when I was 18 yrs old and I’m 62 now 🥰 I was so excited to go see them a memory I will never forget ☺️
Another favorite of mine's. Lionel Ritchie another brilliant genius songwriter and lyricist in music history
You remind me of my son when I introduce him to a new band/ group from my teenage years! He loves it when I call him to let him listen to "grown folks music"
The Commodors♥️♥️ Lionel Richie oh man one of the most prolific singers, songwriters musician♥️♥️♥️
I've loved this song since the first time I heard it. It's very soulful and touching. Would love for this song to be back on the airwaves.
Nice! Do Sail On next.
I knew your reaction to seeing Lionel would be fantastic to see and oh boy it was definitely that Jayvee. I loved him in the Commodootrs and I love his songs solo. My favourite with the group is Once, Twice Three times a Lady and my solo is Hello. I think he has a smooth and rich voice which shows his emotions, and the words come across so clearly, a great singer. I am still chuckling over your reactions sweetheart, so honest and genuine, you're great my friend. Take care and stay safe please everyone, love and hugs and peace to you all Mary-Ellen UK
Love the Commodores and Lionel Richie. There were a few years there where he was just pumping out the hits. I'm not sure which year it was, but at the American Music Awards, he was winning everything. Incredibly talented singer/songwriter.
I'm so glad that you are reacting to The Commodores. R&B throughout the 70's was exceptional. I kindly request that you react to "Sweet Love", released by The Commodores in 1975. It's actually not a love song per se, but simply a song about love, and how sweet it genuinely is. Best wishes from San Diego.😊
Amazing song! You'll never go wrong with the Commadores 🎶💙🎤
oh the music, So happy all this music formed part of my 60yrs of life.
this song is perfect for you. it's like your personality.
Lionel Richie was in the Commodores for over a decade before going solo in the eighties. He had a very successful solo career but some of my favorite music from him is from his work with the Commodores. The group was formed when the members met as freshmen while attending Tuskegee Institute in 1968. They have so many great songs like, Still, Zoom, Brick House, etc.
Saw Lionel in concert a few years ago....stood at the stage and danced for 2 hours....great night!
One of a kind voice
Yup that's Lionel Ritchie lol and this takes me right back to jr high lol brick house was a huge hit for them. Thx for the song...♡
These guys were so great together...Lionel Richie put the right songs together and they collectively were magnificent!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
That was awesome. I loved the look on your face when you realized that Lionel Richie was singing.. Not only does he play piano but he plays a mean sax .. We had so many great bands back in the day .. I wish we had that kind of music today...
Yes, Lionel Richie was a member of the Commodores. Such a great tune. 1977 was a great year for great music.
Love this song! He’s a cool dude with a great voice!!
This one sure brings back great memories! 1977 was the year I graduated hi school. This was the ultimate cruisin' tune...great for road trips!! And for slow dancing! At least one Commodores 8-track tapes was a necessity in everyone's car tape case!! Enjoyed the reaction! Thanks!!
Commodores had a number of slow tempo hits and also did funk and dance music like Lady (You Bring Me Up).
I graduated 1979, I remember this song playing at school dances.
This one, and Still... my favorites of theirs! That being said, they don’t have a bad song!
