To Listen to Lionel Richie singing Three Times A Lady (with English Lyrics), please click links below : • • The Commodors - Three times a Lady L... • This Waltz song was written by Commodores lead singer Lionel Richie, who explained in a 1979 interview with Blues Soul magazine: I wrote it back in 1978 and it was a very personal meaning to me. • I attended the 37th wedding anniversary of my parents and my father made a speech about how much he loved my mother and appreciated the way she had stood beside him for 37 years. • Richie's father toasted his mother, Alberta, saying She's a great lady, she's a great mother, and she's a great friend. • It was beautiful and I started to think about my own life and how my wife (Brenda) stands by me, how she does so many things without being asked or thanked. • So, I wrote 'Three Times A Lady' as a dedication to my wife and my mother. • This was a breakthrough song for the Commodores and for Lionel Richie as a songwriter. • It crossed over to pop, easy listening and even country formats, setting the stage for further Commodores hits and Richie's massive solo success. • In the same Blues Soul interview, Richie said: The song has given me so much personal satisfaction. • I think it is every songwriter's dream to be totally accepted. • And from the masses of awards that the song has won, it seems that the whole world really does love that song. It's a great feeling. • The Commodores were more of a funk band before their massive success with sentimental love songs like this one. • They had more hits in a similar style with Still and Sail On, and Richie followed the formula all the way to the bank with solo hits like Truly, Hello, Stuck On You and Penny Lover. • In the UK, this was #1 for five weeks. It was the biggest UK hit for Motown Records. • Lionel Richie sang Three Times A Lady throughout his solo career, performing it more than any other song from the Commodores era. • The original Commodores' version of the song was included as the final track on Lionel Richie's greatest hits compilation album Back To Front, released in 1992. • • GEAR USED : • Guitar : Fender FC-20 1982 Classical Guitar • Guitar String: D'addario XT normal tension nylon string (XTC45) • Camera: Canon EOS Rebel T6i • Microphone: MOVO VXR10 Universal Cardioid Microphone • Microphone Stand: ATLAS IED Microphone Stand PB15EB • Guitar Stand: OnStage XCG4 Black Tripod Single Guitar Stand • Guitar Tuning: Standard Tuning • If you enjoy my performance, please SUBSCRIBE for coming new videos and hit that LIKE button to help more people see it. • Thanks for watching and listening !
