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.

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!

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 😍🙂🤣

This is the best version ever. I wish someone would remaster this and put it out.

And Diana Ross stole the show and the spotlight

DIANA ROSS IS SO BEAUTIFUL

Beautiful voices. This was a performance of perfection!!

No auto tunes….perfection

Diana is Beautiful...

One of the Greatest Love Songs Ever...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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.

The tenderness in their voices ... it’s so believable like they truly are in love with each other...❤️💜❣️

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!!!!!!!!

Amazing talent by both of these LEGENDS!!!

So Beautiful Diana!

Diana and Lionel did the damn thang!!!

The greatness is overwhelming

i really love this song

Perfection..

Wow artists like that don't exist this day

Long time ago but still just as beautiful.

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 !

Such a magnificent love song! So magical and glorious!

❤❤Beautiful!

Los Angeles was an incredible city in the 80s

How I wish Michael Jackson and Diana Ross made a duet with this song

2 Motown greats!

People were much much happier in the 1980s than now

Diana Ross uma ótima cantora.

Fantastic revival of so beautiful song and moment!

Motown Royalty❤

I wish they would sing this together again. 😭 Thank you so much for posting it.

I love Diana

is it only me who watch this video in 2018??

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

You will always be, my endless love. 🥰😳🥹😭

So beautiful. A classic song and moment in time.

Such a declaration for the one you love!

Johnny Carson was so great 👍 ❤

thanks

Great live version. One of the few songs that outdid the movie 👍🏽👍🏽

Melt every time I hear it. It will be a sad world when they are no longer with us...

Duo perfecto!!! En todas las presentaciones en vivo Diana Ross se luce, su voz perfecta y bella como ella!!

Beautiful song 😭😭😭

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.......

Thx again.. all the best.. God bless U forever.. all my love 💓💘❤💕♥💗💓💘❤💕

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?

Aww❤❤"Endless Love." 🍓

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.

❤ 💝 ❤ 💝 🌹 💝 ❤ love this song!!!

Finally found your version with the live audio. Too many copies on KZfaq that dubbed in the recording!

What a timeless song by two Legends....love them both...

Ross You 2020

una joya este vídeo

I hear this song On Mei 2023, who else still hear this wonderful song until now. what a wonderful Lionel Richie and Dian Ross.

Thx a million.. God bless U.. all the best.. lots of love..!🌹🌷⚘💐🙏🙏🙏🙏

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This was beautiful. I don’t know what Lionel did but Ross has never performed this song with him again. He’s called her out a few times on it but I always wondered what happened.

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

Love the part where they're out of character and make eye contact and pull each other closer @6:01

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 : )

Watching it in 2019

RIP MARY AND FLORENCE

Lionel way to close...,,She is magic! I love her!

Lionel이 이 노래 살렸다

🌻

Este audio rescata mejor las voces, ahora parece que solo son agudos.

Does anyone else see the awkwardness in this performance?

this should have won best song and not arthurs!

Johnny Carson literally introduced lionel before mss ross. Holy fuck,!

3:09

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.

Who's the actor at 2:32?

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

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.

Ms ross burned daggers at lionel for singing first. Takes the last word.

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

Sorry. The chem isn't there. Ofc cause Di' was married. Absolutely lovable song, though.

Luther coming on a little strong lol

My god she was high as a kite, poor Lionel.

Why was Lionel so low in the mix? Great performances, but he was barely audible.

That's Michael Jackson's mom singing with Lionel Richie.
