(More customer reviews)I recently brought this DVD...and I fell in LOVE with it. My only regret is that I did not buy this sooner!!
I have not seen these videos since the late '80s - early '90s, and they really had me reminiscing. Looking over this collection, it was plain to see why Lionel Richie was the one of the hottest pop acts of the 1980s, where his only competition was Michael Jackson and Prince - good musical company to be in!! Even though today many people may dismiss Lionel's material as being too pop-oriented, I have yet to come across one person who can honestly say that they never brought any of his music!
This is like taking a trip through my late teens and early twenties all over again...I can remember all of these videos and being so moved by the "Hello" video, I had to cry. And I had the same reaction when I saw it again for the first time in God knows how many years!! The only videos I never really cared for were "Dancing On The Ceiling" (hey, I'm sorry!!) and "Penny Lover", but all the others are off the hook, especially "All Night Long" (where you see a young Lela Rochon-Fuqua dancing with Lionel), "Running With The Night" (this always reminded me of MJ's "Smooth Criminal" video), "Do It To Me" (I love this video...it is STEAMY, STEAMY, STEAMY!), "Se La" and "My Destiny". Also in the "Love, Oh Love" video, be on the lookout for a young Nicole Richie.
The one mistake that was made with this collection was the omission of "My Love", one of my favorite Lionel solo songs...which can ONLY be seen if you have a DVD-ROM in your computer and you are hooked up to the web >:-( NOT FAIR!! That was the only thing that prevented me from giving this 5 stars. But other than that, this is an extremely enjoyable DVD. Yeah, as I watch it over and over again, it reminds me just why I love Lionel, and why I can't wait for his new CD to drop next month. For the Richie fan, this DVD is a MUST to own.
