What an epic song and an epic video. I love Lionel Richie. He has many great songs and this is one of them. And somehow he doesn't seem to get older when the years pass by!!!!
I love this song! It is just so happy and uplifting, it makes me want to do as they doing in the video and dance on the ceiling. XD Much respect for Lionel, he's a true legend!
Great song, I miss music like this, music like this reminds me of an era when everyone was happy, joyful and carefree and I'd give anything to go back to that era again.
songs like this make me miss the 1980's but what is so funny is that certain songs remind of certain times in your life, like dancing on the ceiling reminds me when I first started JR. High School,
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
Oh, what a Feeling!....Night Time at the Myrtle Beach Pavilion in Myrtle Beach, SC 1988, Yeah!!! Bring Back the Good 'ol Days and the 80's!! 2000's, you can stick where the sun don't shine! LOL ....If i had a working Time Machine, C-ya, wouldn't wanna B ya! =)

wow, I havent heard this song since the late 80's and early 90's, never thought I would find it again, thanks for posting. Many memories growing up with music like this back then, good times and I miss them alot.
Billboard's #39 song of '86. Lionel hit #2 pop, #3 AC, #6 soul, in Billboard. Cameos by Cheech Marin, and, Rodney Dangerfield. God bless ya, brother Lionel, and, Merry Christmas!
@fullmoon4399 the room was a set where everything is fixed including the camera, and they just rotate it so gravity ends up working in the direction they want it to, then they superimpose the crowd in post production - just my guess
@TechnologicalUK Fair play, man. This music is effing awesome, and this is coming from someone who grew up in the 80s.....nothing comes close these days : D
This wasn't the first music video to feature dancing on the ceiling scenes. In 1984, the Canadian group M+M (formerly known as Martha and the Muffins) had a hit called "Black Stations, White Stations" - which featured the lead singer, along with one or two other band members - and even a dog - dancing on the ceiling in at least 2 or 3 scenes.
@danielraysir -I remember watching a show about how this is done, if you have ever been to Universal Studios, they actually show you-or at least they did a long time ago when I went last. The entire room actually rotates-of course everything else is bolted down, etc. You don't see it rotating of course, but it is.
God is watching Us to see if we have the guts & Power of his son, to Fight The GOOD Fight...... May God continue to Bless these Great Americas.... PEACE WILL ALWAYS HAVE A PRICE!!!! Im willing to pay that Great Price for Freedom Liberty & the Pursuit of PEACE!!!!
yeah Can we Please go back to those PEACEFUL TIMES!!!!! Someone has to have the balls to Nuke these Terriorists.. After all AMERICA WAS ATTACKED FIRST You start the fight , We will finish it!!! NUKE THE BASTERDS ,
THEY ARE WORST THAN HITLER, BRING OUR SOLDIERS HOME FLATTENED IT!!!!n Their A........
If I recall correctly, Lionel was working on a song called "Dancing On The Ceiling" at the time of Oscars where won for "Say You, Say Me" from WHITE NIGHTS.
Stanley Donen, who was directing the Oscar telecast, also directed ROYAL WEDDING, which featured the number with Fred Astaire dancing on the ceiling. He worked the same magic directing Lionel's video.
