Love it! I know there were a few mixes of this song in 1977, but I've never heard one with a drum shuffle...could easily be Bernard Purdy or Jeff Porcaro laying down this track - Mario, just fantastic. Love the harmonies in the backing vox, IIRC they were unison on the original. Give Andy Seymore a nice smooth vocal and he'll make it even smoother! Love the vintage key patches Darren, the guitar solo was spot on and a nice grounded bass. Better than the original, in my humble....
@@chaschampion777 Cool, didn't catch that (the comments were coming in faster than I could type, lol) I think it's a cool version with the shuffle. Lionel Ritchie meets Steely Dan...
@svengilson oh, for sure, and I hope I didn't sound snobby. Bonham and a number of groove masters came to mind immediately but no doubt that was another of Mario's masterclasses👍
Darren, I know that Singit Live is a business for you and your team, but to your fans around the world you and the band are a bright spot each week, a distraction from the mess that the world is in at this point. Thank you!
@@singitliveworldamen, Darren...i always look fwd to ya'lls videos as we say in the deep South in the USA! God bless yall...for real! I look fwd to the surprise song youll cover...and the surprise lineup youll use. But every single time...its a awesome song with a always badass lineup! Andy and Nikki and of course Darren are my favorites...but thats just if i was forced to pick...lol! Seriously, i hope this finds you and the band with a smile. Musically yours-JK
@@AndySeymour hey brothah, this is your stateside friend from GA. Its been a min since you have fronted the BAND...but worth the wait! I hope Lionel sees this and pays u a deserved compliment. Also compliments to the blue jacket...holy moly! Ive worn one similar when my band did a 100% Elvis tribute and i had a blue cumberbund and bowtie, yes sir!!!!!! Anyway...hope you are doing well! My father recently passed so life is quite different without him now. Anyway...look fwd to hearing you again with Darren and the band soon! Cheers my musical soul brothah!
@@JK-js2td Hey man! Nice to hear from you. I'm sorry to hear about your Father's passing. Speak about him with friends and family, and he'll live on forever. My jacket in this video is denim; it's just difficult to see. I wonder if they make a denim cumberbund? Heh heh 😀
Ladies and gentlemen that was the incomparable @AndySeymour making your Saturday easy as a Sunday morning... Another polished performance from the @Singitlive team 🎤🎶👏👌❤🙏
Who needs Lionel Ritchie when you have a fabulous singer like Andy Seymour. Great rendition Andy. You look marvelous too. Great band accompanying you as well. Love you all ❤
This band always has me closing my eyes and taking a trip back in times to my youth😌. Usually it feels so good my eye's fill with tears 🥲. A feeling that no money can buy or medication can reproduce 😌. How I do miss those days ❤
Andy's interpretation of this Lionel Richie smash is well done, highlights Andy's talent and shows why SingIt Live is so well respected, no matter what day of the week it is wherever you are on planet earth!
When you got some great guitarists on board, it would be a sin if you didn't ask them to 'show off'. Some fans really love these. But seriously, it depends on the arrangement, whether the lead guitarist need to 'shine' or not, like in this case. Compared to Darren's former channel now, at least we are lucky to see so many great guitar solos here at SIL, and that in part makes this channel stand out to discerning fans. Moreover, one needs to have chops to 'show off' convincingly.
@@AndySeymour how about more Motown, I suggested you and Nikki cover the Marvin and Tammi songbook! "Ain't no mountain high enough" for you and Nikki :)
Extensively easy on my ears. Haven't seen this dude for awhile, but so dig his voice and his vibe. Well done, gentlemen. Nothing but love for you guys.
I'm always pleased when Andy Seymour sings with you guys! He's got the voice, the personality and the moves! Background vocals are great. Everything was a work of art. Lionel Ritchie can't be beat on this song, but you guys came mighty close
Perfection! It was nice seeing all guys playing and providing back up singing together. Andy, please don't make us wait too long to hear those glorious vocal cords again. What a pleasure it is to sit back, close the eyes, and just be taken away with the melody.
Andy is always welcome in my place...what a smoooooth professional singer is he....what a backing group and production...really Easy on the ears even for an old deaf fella in Brisbane.
How does this even happen? One of my favorite cover bands on CZcams doing a Lionel Richie/Commodores song within 2 weeks of my seeing Lionel in concert!🤯😎
Thank you Sing It Live for another great performance of a classic song. Always thought this song was very underrated. I love the part from 2:21 - through the guitar solo. With much appreciation! 😊
Gentleman that was so smooth, like silk. Andy is a national treasure! Thanks for sharing him with the world and keeping this beautiful music alive! It’s Friday evening on the other side of the earth and you made it special. Greetings and best wishes from Cape Cod!
I forgot how great that song was. We all burned out on slow Lionel Richie ballads back in the day, but forgot there was a reason they were such big hits. And it always makes me happy every time I see that mikepulled down in front of Mario! Sing it!
The song, the singer and the band......makin' it look easy. Superlative Andy Seymour. It's Friday night here in NYC but Sunday came early this weekend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
One of my favorite songs. Every time, without fail, it brings back a flood of memories and feelings. This is an absolutely brilliant recording. Thank you.
@@AndySeymour Cheers to you Andy. Always appreciate your talent. "Just the Two of Us" was the first time I heard you. Have loved every song since. Plus, it is always a hit with the ladies.
I adore Mario Marino' drumming. He makes it look so very simple, but please take my word for it when i say that shuffle groove is far from simple. Absolutely brilliant!
Oh yay!! I've missed Andy and his suave way!! You are all incredible artists! Finally got to see a video right off the beat!! Thank you for the music SIL!!!! Brilliant! ❤
Mr. Andy, love hearing your soulful take on Lionel Richie, and the band is smooth like the Commodores. Mr. Darren, great job. I really look forward to Sing It Live videos every Friday. Be blessed from Virginia, USA.
Incrível apresentação de Andy Seymour, um Lord britânico na postura, lindo arranjo. Instrumental perfeito, idem back vocals. SINGIT Congratulations!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
How does anybody do it any better? Just great cover through and through. I look forward to Friday evenings every week, starting my weekend off perfectly every time! Y'all are the best !
Andy is my guy! That gift of a voice is superb. It was cool seeing everyone join in the harmonies for what is pure 70's magic. Great choice Darren! Best wishes from Calgary Alberta Canada at the Foothills of the Majestic Canadian Rocky Mountains!

I actually mentioned it a day before he or anyone else did🙃

And neither Purdy nor Porcaro shuffled while also singing!

Great rendition of a classic Lionel track. Had the privilege of seeing Mr Richie in concert in June 2023. 💚

Just when I think I can't love Andy Seymour any more - that blue jacket and those smooth sound ... ooohh aaggh.
Carol, 🤣🤣
The Master is back on the microphone….smooth as silk and with brilliant arrangement to match…SIL delivering yet again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Agreed, and delivered with lots and lots and lot of cheese! 👍
The incomparable Andy Seymour and Darren's Sing It Live band make Saturday mornings (in Australia) also so very easy.
The "understated" (no showing off) guitar was perfect.
True👏👏👏👏👏👏

Andy is one of the guys that has made these bands great. Class and persona. Young entertainers - watch and learn. This is what you want to emulate. A+
Thank you for a seriously cool compliment! 🙏😀

Nice to see *Andy* back in the basement
Lovely mellow background vocals, and wonderful _Thomas McClary_ guitar solo by *Shaun* 👍🏿
Thanks mate 🙏
That final note guitar dude played at the end of the solo held so long it almost reached Joe Satriani. Excellent work to all of you.
Andy! Lord I love your soul. Way to bring it Brother. And Shaun, so so nice on the guitar. Gentlemen, so easy.
Cheers bud!
Perfection! It was nice seeing all guys playing and providing back up singing together. Andy, please don't make us wait too long to hear those glorious vocal cords again. What a pleasure it is to sit back, close the eyes, and just be taken away with the melody.

This band is exquisite. Mr.Seymour IS ANOTHER LEVEL. Talent. Voice. Mannerisms. STAGE PRESENCE. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Has IT !!!!!
Germany Saturday 01:22 and I think hell is this singer from down under talented!
Very nice vocals…..all around! And, I liked how the guitar player stayed faithful to that tone & feel of the iconic, soulful solo! 👏🥃👍
Brings back memories of the early 90's, and Faith No More's cover. Nice soul feel.....
J'adore ! Ça transporte le cœur merci M. Andy et messieurs les musiciens ! Gratitude pour ce moment d'exception !
Ok this was pure class...and back to '70's classics. Thank you for listening to me...😁
