The Commodores most successful period was in the late 1970s and 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. Lionel Ritchie went on to have a big solo career.
Awesome to see you find the Commodores. They were a favorite of mine in Junior High and High School. To grow up with these bands....you just don't realize the impact they have on your life at the time until many years down the road and you hear them again! Thanks for the memories!
Great group- I had the red album. Their harmonies - beautiful. Love the lyrics. The outfits - slick & nice to look at! This old lady loving that you reviewed this. Haven't heard it in years!
I was about 10 at the height of their popularity. I was already a rock fan and couldn't help but like the Commodores, Kool and the Gang, Donna Summer, etc. - my sister was a disco freak and even took me to a movie called "Thank God it's Friday". Glad I never owned any bell bottoms, lol.
I agree with Still as one of their best. You really need to give this one a reaction next. Sail On is about a man telling his wife he's leaving. Still is about a man telling her he loves her Still.
That is a GREAT song. Love it. Lionel Richie is amazing. Again, look at the band members playing those instruments. You just don't see that these days. Definitely need to give Still a listen. Great song.
I can't tell where your playlists are but as far as the Bee Gees go you need to check out Massachucets because Robin does most of the vocals in that one! Love your reactions!!!!!
Here's a suggestion and make sure to mention me " BetterCent LLC" but this is one of my Favorites Commodores "Zoom" that's the joint..yup I said "joint" lol 😆 God bless you brother.

As a teen of the 70, it is interesting that people are now discovering the excellence the music. Quality of American really dropped off after 1985. Change my mind...
Please please please PLEASE react to Roadrunner by the Modern Lovers. One of the greatest songs ever written and I can’t find a single reaction video about it. YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!!
Hey Devin, have you ever reacted to Cab Callaway and the dance routine from the Nicholas Brothers? I like your videos because you are able to recognize real talent. I would like to see your reaction to Stormy Weather in color - The Nicholas Brothers and Cab Calloway | Colorized with DeOldify - RU-vid
Ok, Devin, IM BEGGING!!!!!! PLEASE! PRETTYPLEASE! REACT TO “TUPELO HONEY” By Van Morrison, one of the most beautiful songs of the 70s, KEEP IT ALIVE PLEASE
You should do a reaction to Lauren Daigle (who is a Christian) on her hit “Say You”. She sounds exactly like Adele, such a beautiful voice. Love Lionel Ritchie and the Commodores. Grew up on their music.
Hey Devin, You have to go check out Simply Red! Fantastic singer leading the band, Mick Hucknall. React to "Holding Back the Years", "Stars", "Money's too tight to Mention". You will love those songs!
