Lionel is a true visonary. He truly believed in the cause of We are The World when he co-wrote it. And this song just rips you down to your raw emotions if truly listend to. a tear rolled down my face.
never heard def leppard's version n dnt think i need 2 lionel richie is enough 4 me.... a truly beautiful song, anything sung by Lionel richie is always beautiful
This is the first time I've heard this version and all I can say is that It's OK at best........Def Leppard made the song perfect. Just too bad it never made it to the top. One of my favorites.
Nice try but rarely is a cover as good or better than the original....this is just another failed cover in my opinion. You can't take out the guitar in this song! That is what made the song!
personally. i absolutly love both versions. but lionels has such emotion and power when it comes into the last chors.. and i think that does it for me.
It is very hard to do songs better then the original artist. I loved Def Leppards version. Yet something just feels right when lionel richie sings it.
I never post any comments on here, but anyone who thinks that Lionel's version is better than Leppards is crazy! Not even close! Everyone thinks of "Pour Some Sugar on Me" when the they think of Leppard, but they are so much more than that! Listen to them as musicians in their version, , , unbelievable song! One of their best!
"In memory there is no hidden place" sure right about dat i never taught i'll heard this one again once since i was 10 and that was it until now. thks kleintobi13
Yes, I agree, I love this song too! I never knew that Lionel Ritchie sang this until I read a comment on the Def Leppard video. I think I do like it a bit better.
i agree that Def Leppard did a better version if Lionel Richie mentioned it on a radio interview, but he has an R&B feel to it! Def Leppard sings it like appropriate for intimate moments
i remember lionel co-wrote "we are the world" for usa for africa with michael jackson. lionel believed in the cause, where michael was just involved for his own overblown ego
Not sure if you know this but Def Lepard wrote this song in 2003, their version is like most originals better, check it out :o) Joe Elliots voice is well suited to it.
I'm sure if you know this Def Leppard didnt write it they did a cover of it on X read the back cover W.Hector & S. Robson it's on there for me it's hard to read I love this song by D.L. but I know they didnt write it sorry D.F. Fan.
@jinkazamamonkey Def didn't write this at all, it was written by Wayne Hector& Steve Robson. It's the only song on 'X' that isn't credited to the band (but you could argue X was a pop-produced detour anyway). Don't get me wrong I love me some Lepp tho!
def leppard,s version is soooooo much better its the bomb !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I am a huge Def Lepp fan - Def Lepp unfortantely didnt write this ( Songwriters: Robson, S; Hector, W)
- It has been the only song that they have done as the original recording release of this song -I do like Lionel's version also.

I agree. I LOVE both versions. It's hard to decided which one I prefer.
Lionel's voice is so haunting in this. His version sounds more tearful.
Def Leppard's version is sad but with a hopeful feel to it.
