THIS GETS ME EMOTIONAL..| Lionel Richie - Hello (Official Music Video) REACTION

[@scm021374]

I love this song. He also has a really nice duet with Diana Ross called "Endless love". You should check it out also.

[@BillGraper]

"Endless Love" was the #3 song of the entire 80's decade! "Hello" was also a #1 hit. Great stuff!!!

[@User_vfjp_927_baltimore_sc]

The fact that she's blind pulls at your heart strings ! Very emotional and beautiful ✌❤

[@User_vfjp_927_baltimore_sc]

I can't believe you won't give me a heart when I paid a whole year in advance!

[@jaysonnovelero2933]

Nice start for a Lionel Richie song.. He had a lot of great hits when he was in the Commodores, and also when he goes solo.. You should react to more of his songs like All Night Long, Say You Say Me, Stuck on You, Dancing on the Ceiling, Truly, My Love or his song Endless Love with Diana Ross.. ❤️

[@jlmurray9988]

NO WAY!!! That’s way passed his prime. How about, “Still”? Wanted to hear more of you, dude.

[@lisadavie5282]

The BEST!

[@baronvonsatan]

@@jlmurray9988 *past *also you're wrong-- that album was when he blew UP

[@jlmurray9988]

@@baronvonsatan Thanks for the correction. He split & went solo after CITA … THIS IS YOUR LIFE, is my fave. I was 16 or 17. I know all of those songs. AND Rufus! Chaka Khan ? Kahn? Earth, Wind & Fire, Ohio Players. I’m very familiar with the crossover and non crossover music. Bought it all … first on vinyl, then cassette. AND had the vinyl of the Tom Tom Club. Wanna dance?

[@rattata30]

I think you have a beautiful soul. One can tell in your eyes😮

[@iguanaman08]

I'm old enough to remember this song coming out. Was such a big hit back then. Everyone was talking about it.

[@BardOfAndromeda]

Same here - I was ten and I remember it spending a whopping 6 weeks at No.1 in the UK. In 1984, one of the biggest-selling years ever :D

[@iguanaman08]

@@BardOfAndromeda I was 10 in 1984 also. There was no escape from it in the UK. Remember being at school and your friends shouting "heeello!!

[@rodneyballardsr5250]

A great songwriter. Lionel Richie shot off when he left The Commodores!!

[@stacymoore9836]

Lionel Richie ruled the 80’s. He wrote his songs. Also Kenny Rogers songs.

[@dawnpritchard4222]

Beautiful song!!!!!

[@joansmith1195]

"Hello" is a very emotional and beautiful song. Always makes me cry and I don't know why.

[@noblewelch5855]

I have to admit that I accidentally found your station and I'm so glad I did. So many songs l have forgotten, including this one. Keep up the great work. Also try going to your one hit wonder songs and do some more " Outfield" because they actually had several popular songs. Thanks for the memories so far!

[@Desktopchart750]

"Stuck On You" is a must

[@apriluvn]

I love Lionel, from his days with The Commodores and ultimately with his solo career. Such an amazing voice.

[@user-DJDreamworld]

TRULY - LIONEL RICHIE

[@aks4204]

Lionel sings/writes such beautiful song. His voice is amazing.

[@Thailandescapades]

Such a tearful song and so much reminds me on my late mam

[@CrashCourseFarm]

"Say you, say me" ... amazing song

[@pauldavis7260]

Hello!!! Lol Love a bit of Lionel seen him in concert absolutely brilliant. Obviously got some well known songs but one of my favourites is Stuck on you.

[@conniegordon2465]

Beautiful song, and Lionel Richie does the best job singing it. It's perfect for him. He is wonderfully talented and known in the music industry to be a great songwriter.

[@nicolette2866]

So romantic yet sad

[@mezellenjohnson2753]

This is one of my top 10 favourites. His voice is wonderful and so emotional and smooth. I have loved this since I first heard it on the radio and when I got a good paying job I brought the album on cassette. I now listen to it on KZbin when I need soothing after a panic attack or I'm feeling very anxious. This doesn't make me cry as my husband plays this sometimes for me as he says it makes him think of me. I love your reaction to this and I agree with everything you said. Take care and stay safe please my friends God bless you all love hugs and peace to everyone Mary-Ellen UK

[@mangerinegirl]

I have an entire playlist of songs that calm me down during a panic attack. Music is a wonderful thing, isn’t it?

[@mezellenjohnson2753]

@@mangerinegirl I listen to music all the time, though it's not to everyone's taste it keeps me going. I have so many songs to chose from so I listen to different ones most days. I am bedridden so it's a comfort when pain gets me down. God bless you sweetheart, love hugs and peace Mary-Ellen UK

[@mangerinegirl]

@@mezellenjohnson2753 All the same to you!

[@LauraBunny]

I adore you, Jovaughn...really - but you made me giggle a bit with your observation of Lionel's crush not turning around to give him the time of day everywhere he creeped on her...did you not realize she was blind? That's why he's so aggressive at the end...because he's blown away that she was able to envision his face in her mind. Keep up the good work, ya cutie sweetheart! 💘

[@dr.westwood]

The irony of her being blind gets lost on a lot of people.

[@mrsheatherteske]

The song gets me too. Yes it's relatable and makes you feel as if you're there with him as he sings it

[@AmaanStorm]

This song reminds me of my mum because she loved Lionel Richies music. I was a four year old child when this song was first around and my mum went through a really bad time at the time. I used to see her cry a lot and as a really young child I felt helpless and couldn't understand her pain despite knowing that she was hurting. When I'd hear this song and I would cry buckets. Even though the lyrics have no connection, the song reminds me of my mum and I always get emotional thinking about her going through so much pain and not being able to help at the time. Music can be incredibly powerful.

[@skinmeister1]

“Stuck On You” is another great Lionel Ritchie solo tune to check out next… such a great artist!

[@andycarr5876]

100% your right it’s a perfect song and definitely my favourite Lionel Richie song… Love the videos 👍🏾

[@gpreactions3194]

The song is beautifully sung, but that sculpture at the end... Great reaction xx

[@susanstavrou4232]

This guy is an absolute legend and a gentleman

[@richdoe48]

One of the best songs ever imo.

[@lollylula6399]

I love Lionel Richie! In the Commodores and solo. You don't need auto-tune, just practice & practicing confidence in singing in front of people 🙌🏼

[@stevemariman8769]

If I listen to this song, I will cry. There are some others like that too. The music sounds so good though, so I always listen, and cry!

[@angelahall332]

There are so many goo Lionel songs. For another slow song try "Stuck on You" for more upbeat try "All night Long" You can't go wrong with any of his songs. He is an amazing song writer as well.

[@loramacrae-lopes6293]

My favorite of his. Love Three Times A Lady and Still as well.

[@mangerinegirl]

Oh man, I had so many emotions watching you react to this. The song does always choke me up, it’s beautiful and Lionel sounds so earnest in his longing. But also you kept cracking me up with your comments, especially that final “hello” that was definitely so aggressive in the video. I always used to laugh at the scene where he calls her and starts singing, then just drops the phone like he’s done and she’s still listening on her end like “Hello? Are you there?” Meanwhile he’s just singing to the camera like she doesn’t exist. 😂 It’s a cute idea for a video but there are a few scenes that don’t make sense to me. I’m glad you enjoyed this one! Love your singing at the end too!

[@nathansnider6525]

I love more people hearing this song. Great reaction!!!

[@lisac9930]

I don't think she was ignoring him; it just looks like he's singing, at the same time, w/everything else going on. I used to be SO ADDICTED to that video; don't think there is a number great enough, to say just how many times I've seen it. 👍👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 SUCH A BEAUTIFULLY AMAZING SONG & Lionel sang it, to it's PERFECTION!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@sphericstudios]

"For nine years running, from 1978 to 1986, nine different Lionel Richie compositions occupied the number one chart position, spending a total of 34 weeks in the top spot" ... amazing. The 'Hello' video is considered a bit kitsch now, but the song remains unassailable.

[@chrislorditch6100]

I love Lionel Richie! You should listen to “Still”

[@marthaz]

Legendary songwriter and performer 💞 Guess what? You have already heard 2 songs Lionel wrote - "Lady" sung by Kenny Rogers and he co-wrote "We Are The World" (USA for Africa). ☺️ His voice is really highlighted in duet with Dianna Ross, "Endless Love" 👍

[@Anguille2]

This was my song when I was hoping to be loved back by some girls. Love it. An everlasting favourite. One of the perfect songs.

[@chamberlainwonder369]

This is a powerful song with a powerful video clip

[@MelodyIN465]

Very moving song. I’d like to please recommend his song, “My Love”, it’s a beautiful song and brings back so many mixed memories, bittersweet I guess you’d say. Of a time that was both hopeful and hopeless and a turning point in my life where I made some impulsive, naive, choices that I felt pressured to make, that spun my life off into another direction and that still haunt me to this day. That song was played a lot back in the day and it was a favorite of mine and hearing it now can bring back so many different emotions both happy and sad. I have long since gotten myself away from the bad situation I’d created for myself by trusting the wrong person. I’m 66 and I’m now alone in life yet I’m happier then I was back then when I was young and not alone. “My Love” remains a very meaningful song to me about a path not taken, although I try not to dwell on “what if”? A great one by him with the Commodores is “Easy” also brings back memories from another place and time. Sorry all, I didn’t mean to “write a book” and bore everyone, “My Love” just stirs a lot of emotion in me, even today, I guess I didn’t even realize just how much. Have a good day all.

[@janetperson7915]

I highly recommend "Oh No." The emotion in his voice and the beautiful phrasing; I think you would love it. Love your channel. 💚

[@bkm2797]

Ha Ha, Lionel had his beautiful song Hello maybe before Adele was even born. This whole album is excellent!

[@janiemarshall7928]

J, please react to "Zoom " by the Commodores, and "Sail On" (not sure if it's by the Commodores, or Lionel Richie during his solo career. Both are beautiful, Lionel has had a very successful career (he was the ish in the day), so underrated as an artist. Oh my gosh, please react to both Lionel Richie/Kenny Rogers (both singing) "Lady " together. FYI: Lionel wrote the song "Lady" for Kenny. 🤎🤎🤎🖤🖤🖤

"Hello" is from Lionel Richie's second solo album in 1984. Before that he was with "The Commodores". Their most successful period was in the late 1970s & early 1980s when Lionel Richie was the co-lead singer. The band's biggest hit singles are "Easy", "Three Times A Lady", "Sweet Love", "Just To Be Close To You", "Still", "Oh No", "Lady (You Bring Me Up)", "Sail On", "Nightshift", "Brick House", "Fancy Dancer", "Lady (You Bring Me Up)", "Too Hot ta Trot" etc.
