People often don't realize how closely related country, soul, and R&B are until a song like this blends them so seamlessly. They're distinct musical styles that developed in parallel cultures. Two separate cultures that lived side by side but separately for hundreds of years developed their own music, but the proximity of the two cultures meant that they borrowed from eachother until the lines blurred significantly. You can hear soul in older country and you can hear R&B in newer country just like you hear country in this song.

When I was 16, I went to a Commodores concert. A friend was going with me as well. Because we were minors, the only way she could go was if an adult went with us. So my mom went with us. It was general admission, so we got there early so we could sit in the front row. My friend was absolutely gorgeous. She got the attention of the stage manager who invited us to meet the band. We met everyone but Lionel Richie. When we had to leave, William King (one of the Commodores, in this video he’s playing the piano/keyboard), wanted to make sure we got to the car safely. It was around 2 in the morning & he walked us to the car. Gave us all a hug & a kiss on the cheek. I’ve never forgotten his kindness.

One of my favorite bands from childhood. My older cousin (3 yrs older) introduced me to all the great classic R&B groups/artists. The Commodores were one of her favorites (mine too) & whatever new record she bought, she would play it for me, & then I'd go out to buy my own copy of the single or album. We both had awesome collections- Commodores, Earth Wind & Fire, The GAP Band, Lakeside, Cameo, etc. The Commodores were the one group I listened to the most, as I was a huge fan of Lionel Richie's song writing talent. The man can write love songs like no one's business - every one guaranteed to be featured at weddings everywhere. Sail On & EASY are my top two favorites, followed by Three Times A Lady, STILL, & Nightshift. Please go further down this rabbit hole. Oh, I almost forgot - Brickhouse will get ya movin' & groovin' in your seat. Every time DJ's would put that song on; whether it was the radio or at a the local nightclub/disco - it always got everyone up on their feet as soon as they heard that opening beat drop, Lionel's "UH!", the horns joining in, & the cat call whistle. That was the signal to get up & dance - LOL!

Their costumes were so bright and their moves so smooth, we could see them even though we were so far from the stage. I got a red Commodores t-shirt that I wore to death. I wish so much that I still had it. This song is beautiful. My favorite if you haven't played it already is: "Too Hot to Trot". If you haven't played it , I would love if you could play it for me.

One of the great break up/divorce songs of all time. "I know it's a shame, but I'm givin' you back your name". Classic. This, "We Just Disagree" by Dave Mason, and "Separate Lives" by Phil Collins and Marilyn Martin are my three favorites of all time. IMO Lionel Ritchiie is the greatest writer of love songs in the R&R era. Listen to him doing "Still", "My Love", "Ballerina Girl", "You Are", "Easy", "Penny Lover", "Zoom", "Three Times A Lady", "Lady", "Stuck On You", and "Say You, Say Me".

I looked through the comments to see if anybody felt the same as I do about that line. It’s one of the more clever lines I can think of in any song. Givin you back your name. That’s just a brilliant phrase.

I have many favorite Lionel songs outside the Commodores. "Love Will Find A Way" is one by Lionel I just love.

@@hmmmyeahnahdoh823 But I do like "Love Will Find A Way" better than those. Music is personal and is it ok that I like that particular song better. Not sure where your going. Love Will Find a Way is my personal favorite and that is all I was stating. Nothing more, Nothing less. Was not asking them to react to it.

Not just my favorite Commodores song but one of my favs period. Slippery When Wet, Machine Gun, Are You Happy, and This Is Your Life are tunes I also enjoy.

These guys could break the verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus pattern without you even realizing it. And it was a huge hit!

Loved, loved, loved, this track when it came out in '79, and I still love it to this day. Funny thing it, this song is probably one of the smoothest ways to kick your romantic partner to the curb...LMBO!!! Much respect to the classic lineup of the Commodores.

I love this song! Another song with the same feal to it for me is Sailing by Christopher Cross. Follow that one with Ships by Barry Manilow and you have part of the playlist I put on when driving down the PCH in the summer. I'm feeling the California vibe just thinking about it! And Amber... That shirt? Is that Bigfoot riding Nessie?? I love it!!!

I loved this song when I was a kid before I even understood what the song was about, and today I still love it. One of my all-time favorite songs by anyone. Glad you enjoyed it!

If y’all liked this one, you’d like “Oh No” also by The Commodores.
