Endless Love – The Deco
The Deco The Deco, Abington Square, Northampton NN1 4AEAlmost 40 years ago, Lionel Richie & Diana Ross released Endless Love.
A song which Billboard voted as the number 1 Duet of all time and stayed in the charts for a staggering 27 weeks. It has since become synonymous with couples, lovers and enjoyed by millions of people around the globe to this very day.
However…. what no one could have foreseen is that since it’s original recording, these two icons of popular music would never perform the song together again!
Yes!….Incredibly for 40 years Lionel Richie has been asking Ms Ross to share that magic moment with him once more…. but as yet she has declined.
