Lionel Richie - Coming Home

You can hear Lionel Richie's new album in its entirity here -

http://www.clearchannelmu...chienewOD/

Sounds pretty good. Mellow and contemporary, although nothing really stands out.

To me, Lionel was over once he started singing that pop crap. I want the old Lionel when he was funkin' with the Commodores.

One thing about Lionel, he covers all the bases:

I want someone: Reason to Believe,
I found someone: I Love You & What You Are (younger gen)
I lost someone: Out of My Head & Why (younger gen),

For those between "I found someone" and "I lost someone": I Call it Love

He's even got the fill-in-the-blank personal anthem: I'm Coming Home and an anthem for the world: Stand Down.

He knows the formula that works.

Didn't want to mention: All Around the World, it's a scary reminder that another Dancin on the Ceiling could happen. If Lionel's not bridled, he can get too happy. Hope that one's not contagious.

Thing about Lionel is that people like him and will always welcome him back. I like him and I'm glad the CD has strong tracks on it. The stronger ones are not the ones that jump out and grab you and that's probably because he knows how to write what already feels like a timeless classic. You just welcome it in, the way you do him. So, yes. He will make a comeback. No question.

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
