This is the lesson on how to sing a duet. Each performer working with and respecting the other's strengths and allowing their turn on stage. It isn't just stunning to listen to, it's also beautiful to watch.
I read an interview with Lionel Richie recently in which he said that one of the greatest career regrets he has is that he did not work more with Ms. Ross. He spoke of having confidence that he had written a good song, but being overwhelmed when they took an afternoon out of both their busy tour schedules to record the song by what she brought to the song with her interpretation & what her performance inspired in him. This was the only time they ever performed the song publicly & he counts it as one his carrier's greatest moments. They are both so talented & you can see how enthralled he is with her vocals & how thrilled she is to share such a great song with its writer. It is a breathtaking moment & just from this performance, anyone can see why these two artists became & remain superstars!
Wow, thank you for this. I’ve always been a fan of ms. Ross but this song was my favourite. Thanks for taking the time to share this interesting story.
I definitely think they should have done a couple of duet albums together. Their voices blend beautifully, this and 'Dreaming of You' is proof of that 🎶 ❤
Yes Diana was the star of that show . She and Lionel should have took the stage and got that Oscar. Yes Lionel wrote it . But there is no doubt he would have taken her hand and walked up to that stage with the audience standing in thunderous applause!!!!!!!!
Always been nuts about Ms. Ross. If you follow her career, she NEVER hits a false note....perfect pitch, perfect timing, perfect improvisation, perfect phrasing, perfect mannerisms. Extremely disciplined. And she makes it all look effortless. Just love her work. Richie's superb but she elevated this performance to something sublime.
With such poor quality you can STILL feel the power in the performance and just unbelievable chemistry between them both ! I keep returning to watch this every now and then and its just better every time !
This is one of my favorite songs so I'm learning it on the piano right now, and even though I've practiced like 100 times today I'm still not tired of the song, hence why I'm here :) lol
Thank you. I haven’t seen this in years. It should have won the Oscar and multiple-Grammys it was nominated for.....it is timeless. Do we even remember what song won?
This song (and _For Your Eyes Only_ ... which was also an all time classic movie song), lost to the theme song from _Arthur_ ,one of the all time all time tragedies at the Oscars.
HERE ARE THE LYRICS FOR ALL TO ENJOY : My love, there's only you in my life The only thing that's bright My first love, You're every breath that I take You're every step I make And I, I want to share All my love with you No one else will do And your eyes, your eyes, your eyes They tell me how much you care Ooh yes, You will always be My endless love Two hearts, Two hearts that beat as one Our lives have just begun Forever (Oh) I'll hold you close in my arms I can't resist your charms And love, oh love I'll be a fool, for you I'm sure You know I don't mind (Oh) You know I don't mind 'Cause you, You mean the world to me (Oh) I know I know I've found, I've found in you My endless love Ohh Boom, boom, Boom, boom, boom boom, boom, Boom, boom, boom boom Oh, and love oh, love I'll be that fool for you I'm sure, You know I don't mind Oh you know I don't mind And, yes You'll be the only one 'Cause no one can deny This love I have inside And I'll give it all to you My love, my love, my love My endless love.......
Thanks! There is another version out there with added audio from studio version, but this one is legit. Please do find this audio source to have an upgraded audio version : )
Yeah, I just saw it before this video. I was like, sh**, are they lip-syncing? And I got halfway through and saw the video edit, and was like f***. LoL. This is much better.
I LOVE Diana Ross. I LOVE Lionel Richie. I DETEST Endless Love. It is a dirge that just goes on and on forever, endlessly. I've never understood why it became such a massive hit
This is the strangest comment ever... Have you never been in love or do you dislike love? This song came out years before I was even born but it's one of my favorite songs ever!!
The fact they lost the Oscar that year is the biggest upset in Oscar history. They were straight robbed. Lionel should have two Oscars for best song. Smh but of course those white men making the decisions weren’t going to give him two very deserving Oscars. Just like they didn’t give Chadwick the Oscar this year even though he swept every other award this season. Another huge upset.
First off her name is DIANA ROSS. Second MISS ROSS was not married at the time. Thirdly who the F:ck is “DI” And finally, they had chemistry. Listen to their voices.
Huh?!!! High on life, maybe. Besides, Lionel is the one wearing sunglasses. Maybe they’re to hide how dilated his pupils are, eh? Cocaine: It’s a hell of a drug!
I love anything Lionel Richie. I wasn’t blown away by Diana Ross.i hated how she took over the song and sang louder and stronger so that she overblown. It doesn’t show it here but, on my CD I can’t even him for her over singing. She went on to perform this song as a single for many appearances. She wasn’t a gracious singer at all. Just my opinion okay.
Diana Ross ate this she proved her live voice was the real deal and she's a Goddess
This is the lesson on how to sing a duet. Each performer working with and respecting the other's strengths and allowing their turn on stage. It isn't just stunning to listen to, it's also beautiful to watch.
And Diana Ross stole the show and the spotlight
This is how love songs should sound, not the trash of today. Classy and timeless are these two.
Diana Ross is so beautiful...I remember this so clearly. Lionel was all up in Diana's face 🤣.... Lionel was clearly mesmerized like the rest of us 😍🙂🤣
How funny…I agree….Lionel clearly could barely contain himself….Diana is so stunning
He was so enthralled with her it was cringe because it was not mutual lol
@@PhonyPhoniPhonéshe loves Lionel. They’ve been greatest if true friends for decades. They adore each other, and it’s easy to see why.
@@jameslborg thanks for clarifying
She rocks the end of this song, such a great job. She just sounds so so good. Best duet ever

Absolutely ! 2 amazing talents who have.respect nd love for each other.
I definitely think they should have done a couple of duet albums together. Their voices blend beautifully, this and 'Dreaming of You' is proof of that 🎶 ❤
Uno de los duetos más maravillosos que he escuchado y definitivamente la mejor versión de éste temal
This is the best version ever. I wish someone would remaster this and put it out.
Yes Diana was the star of that show . She and Lionel should have took the stage and got that Oscar. Yes Lionel wrote it . But there is no doubt he would have taken her hand and walked up to that stage with the audience standing in thunderous applause!!!!!!!!
❤❤❤
2 Motown greats!
DIANA ROSS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
No auto tunes….perfection

Extremely disciplined. And she makes it all look effortless. Just love her work. Richie's superb but she elevated this performance to something sublime.
Diana is Beautiful...
Beautiful voices. This was a performance of perfection!!
The tenderness in their voices ... it’s so believable like they truly are in love with each other...❤️💜❣️
Diana and Lionel did the damn thang!!!
Such a magnificent love song! So magical and glorious!
One of the Greatest Love Songs Ever...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
So Beautiful Diana!
Wow artists like that don't exist this day
I luv this song & they both did it justice. Hats off!!❤
Amazing talent by both of these LEGENDS!!!
Los Angeles was an incredible city in the 80s
The greatness is overwhelming
i really love this song
Perfection..
Long time ago but still just as beautiful.
I wish they would sing this together again. 😭 Thank you so much for posting it.
With such poor quality you can STILL feel the power in the performance and just unbelievable chemistry between them both !
I keep returning to watch this every now and then and its just better every time !
So beautiful. A classic song and moment in time.
Such a declaration for the one you love!
Melt every time I hear it. It will be a sad world when they are no longer with us...
Fantastic revival of so beautiful song and moment!
Diana Ross uma ótima cantora.
Duo perfecto!!! En todas las presentaciones en vivo Diana Ross se luce, su voz perfecta y bella como ella!!
I love Diana
This is one of my favorite songs so I'm learning it on the piano right now, and even though I've practiced like 100 times today I'm still not tired of the song, hence why I'm here :) lol
What a timeless song by two Legends....love them both...
Thx again.. all the best.. God bless U forever.. all my love 💓💘❤💕♥💗💓💘❤💕
Thx a million.. God bless U.. all the best.. lots of love..!🌹🌷⚘💐🙏🙏🙏🙏
Aww❤❤"Endless Love." 🍓
Great live version. One of the few songs that outdid the movie 👍🏽👍🏽
Finally found your version with the live audio. Too many copies on RUclips that dubbed in the recording!
People were much much happier in the 1980s than now
Beautiful song 😭😭😭
Thank you. I haven’t seen this in years. It should have won the Oscar and multiple-Grammys it was nominated for.....it is timeless. Do we even remember what song won?
I so agre with u
Arthur's Theme from Christopher Cross won that year
Oscar and Grammy voters didn't care for Diana Ross ......... nominated many times but never won!!
yet, Lionel Richie won many!
This song (and _For Your Eyes Only_ ... which was also an all time classic movie song), lost to the theme song from _Arthur_ ,one of the all time all time tragedies at the Oscars.
Simply Stunning!
My All time Fav.
TY 4 sharring This vid.
How I wish Michael Jackson and Diana Ross made a duet with this song
❤❤Beautiful!
HERE ARE THE LYRICS FOR ALL TO ENJOY :
My love, there's only you in my life
The only thing that's bright
My first love,
You're every breath that I take
You're every step I make
And I, I want to share
All my love with you
No one else will do
And your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Ooh yes,
You will always be
My endless love
Two hearts,
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun
Forever (Oh)
I'll hold you close in my arms
I can't resist your charms
And love, oh love
I'll be a fool, for you I'm sure
You know I don't mind (Oh)
You know I don't mind
'Cause you,
You mean the world to me (Oh)
I know I know
I've found, I've found in you
My endless love
Ohh
Boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom boom, boom,
Boom, boom, boom boom
Oh, and love oh, love
I'll be that fool for you I'm sure,
You know I don't mind
Oh you know I don't mind
And, yes
You'll be the only one
'Cause no one can deny
This love I have inside
And I'll give it all to you
My love, my love, my love
My endless love.......
❤ 💝 ❤ 💝 🌹 💝 ❤ love this song!!!

I hear this song On Mei 2023, who else still hear this wonderful song until now. what a wonderful Lionel Richie and Dian Ross.
is it only me who watch this video in 2018??
nope. I saw it here the first time today too. Although, i know the song since early 90s.
I got you beat. 2019, bitches!
2020
And again watching in 2020 🤣
Here in 2020!
thanks
Motown Royalty❤
You will always be, my endless love. 🥰😳🥹😭
Thanks! There is another version out there with added audio from studio version, but this one is legit.
Please do find this audio source to have an upgraded audio version : )
That´s true! I´ve seached for this version and finally got it mentionning "Academy Awards"! Sorry for my English rs
Yeah, I just saw it before this video. I was like, sh**, are they lip-syncing? And I got halfway through and saw the video edit, and was like f***. LoL. This is much better.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the part where they're out of character and make eye contact and pull each other closer @6:01
Watching it in 2019
Me too
RIP MARY AND FLORENCE
Johnny Carson was so great 👍 ❤
I think Diana is a beautiful woman
& very classy . Lionel looks like hes in luv.😂❤ Still.
🌻
Ross You 2020
Este audio rescata mejor las voces, ahora parece que solo son agudos.
Love this version and it’s the original but Luther just had a way better voice Lionel and made this song go to another level
Lionel way to close...,,She is magic! I love her!
Lionel이 이 노래 살렸다
Who's the actor at 2:32?
Howard Rollins
@@itsnice2meetu294 Thanks.
3:09
Johnny Carson literally introduced lionel before mss ross. Holy fuck,!
Does anyone else see the awkwardness in this performance?
I LOVE Diana Ross. I LOVE Lionel Richie. I DETEST Endless Love. It is a dirge that just goes on and on forever, endlessly. I've never understood why it became such a massive hit
its a beautiful song
Because it's a beautiful song..duh 🙄
So sad, this is one of the most incredibly beautiful and timeless songs ever written.
This is the strangest comment ever... Have you never been in love or do you dislike love? This song came out years before I was even born but it's one of my favorite songs ever!!
this should have won best song and not arthurs!
The fact they lost the Oscar that year is the biggest upset in Oscar history. They were straight robbed. Lionel should have two Oscars for best song.

Just like they didn’t give Chadwick the Oscar this year even though he swept every other award this season. Another huge upset.
Absolutely about Lionel and Chadwick!!!!!
I think it was Miss Ross that was snubbed.
Sorry. The chem isn't there. Ofc cause Di' was married. Absolutely lovable song, though.
@Bequanis Looby: I think Diana was not married that time!
First off her name is DIANA ROSS.
Second MISS ROSS was not married at the time.
Thirdly who the F:ck is “DI”
And finally, they had chemistry. Listen to their voices.
💜🤍
My god she was high as a kite, poor Lionel.
Huh?!!! High on life, maybe.
Besides, Lionel is the one wearing sunglasses. Maybe they’re to hide how dilated his pupils are, eh?

Just my opinion okay.
Why was Lionel so low in the mix?
Great performances, but he was barely audible.
Ms ross burned daggers at lionel for singing first. Takes the last word.
Luther coming on a little strong lol
Hatch Man Do you mean Lionel ?
That's Michael Jackson's mom singing with Lionel Richie.
That's Michael Jackson's greatest love
@josephsmith4147 it is so apparent what you and trump have in common nativity stupidity.
