Product Description
"Easy" is a song by the Commodores for the Motown label, from their fifth studio album, Commodores. Group member Lionel Richie wrote "Easy" with the intention of it becoming another crossover hit for the group given the success of a previous single, "Just to Be Close to You", which spent two weeks at number one on the US Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart (now known as the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart) and peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976.[2]
Released in March 1977, "Easy" reached number one on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart and number four on the Billboard Hot 100. The success of "Easy" paved the way for similar Lionel Richie-composed hit ballads such as "Three Times a Lady" and "Still", and also for Richie's later solo hits.
Commodores é uma banda de soul dos EUA, liderada por Lionel Richie até 1983. Destacam-se músicas como para "Still", "Machine Gun", Easy e "Three Times A Lady". Em 1968, os colegas de escola Milan Williams, Ronald LaPread, Willian King Jr.,Thomas McClary e Walter Clyde Orange juntam-se a Lionel Richie e formam os "Commodores". Logo no início da carreira, a banda participou de uma audição onde foram escolhidos para abrir a turnê do grupo formado pelos irmãos de Michael Jackson, os Jackson 5. Dois anos depois de percorrer o mundo com a turnê dos Jackson 5, os Commodores lançam seu primeiro álbum.
