"Hello" - Lionel Richie



One of my favorite songs, "Hello" is a song by Lionel Richie.Taken as a third single from Richie's multi-platinum album "Can't Slow Down", the song was released in 1984 and reached number one on three Billboard music charts: the prop chart, the R&B chart and the adult contemporary chart. The song also went to number one in the UK Singles Chart.

The song is memorable for the line "Hello, is it me you're looking for?". The guitar solo on the song was played by session guitarist Louie Shelton. The music video features the story of Richie as an art teacher having a seemingly unrequited love for a blind student, until he discovers she shares the same feelings as demonstrated by the discovery that she is sculpting a likeness of his head.

It's a beautiful song, very melodious and an interesting yet sweet video. Have a look :D
