Endless Love, the title track to the movie, became one of the biggest hits of the 80's spending 9 we...moreeks at #1 in America in the summer of 1981. It also spent 7 weeks at number 1 on the R&B charts and 3 weeks atop the Adult Contemporary chart. At the time, it spent more weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 then any other duet,Motown song, or an original soundtrack single. It also became a number one single in Australia for 4 weeks and a Canadian #1 for six. It was a top ten hit in the UK. Written and produced by Lionel Richie, it was his first hit song away from the Commodores and was nominated for an Oscar for Best Song. The movie starring Brooke Shields and future stars Tom Cruise, Jamie Gertz, and James Spader was a box office flop. Oddly "Dreaming of You", the second duet by Ross and Richie on the soundtrack was never released as a single. I know of no official music video for the song, so I posted this. Luther Vandross and Mariah Carey would later record their own hit version in 1994.
