I was a rockin' HS senior when Can't Slow Down was at its peak, and hated it until I realized that that tape and Van Halen's 1984 were completely ace despite the cheese and were furthermore causing me to have an intense sexual attraction to Stephanie C., my grade-rival and nerdy girl friend since 5th grade. Never thought of her as cute before I saw her in a bathing suit awkwardly singing along to "All Night Long (All Night)," and then became a little obsessed with her. The power of pop music!
Um, and suddenly revelatory breasts.

Too bad the Quiet Storm genre disappeared. It was soooooo much better than today's R&B...

there must be thousands of fucking threads dealing with crap like Killing Joke Mountain Goats Sonic Youth The Fall etc....or whatever amateurish shit is preferred around here....
yet somebody better not dare attempt to begin another Lionel Ritchie thread because it will only be locked....
then that somebody will be referred to a thread that doesn't even have the same premise....
POV or whatever that shit is....as far as I can tell, it seems a little different than this defend the indefensible shit....actually I wouldn't even defend the guy...
yet here we are at I LOVE MUSIC
more like I LOVE MEDIOCRITY

I've been listening to and watching LR on Youtube. Quite compelling! I started wondering about finding a LR hits CD.
The video for 'All Night Long' is wonderful, and the track itself is at least interesting.

Can't Slow Down is an excellent album, and the video for "All Night Long (All Night)"--very important, that parenthetical "(All Night)"--is excellent both as a time capsule (i.e. the clothes) and as a way of promulgating Lionel's guy-next-door-who-wants-to-unite-the-world vibe. Also, once when I was DJ'ing in Tracer Hand's basement I followed P!nk's "Get the Party Started" with "All Night Long (All Night)"--again, that parenthetical "(All Night)" is what makes that title for me--and it rocked the motherfucking house. So for that alone he and it would be classic. -- M Matos (M Matos)
Imagine - Tracer Hand had a basement big enough for a LR-style disco!!
― the pinefox, Monday, 4 August 2008 13:16 (fifteen years ago) link
What I also like about that video: the chastity - the way LR is interested in Community rather than in his own desires.
