Lionel Richie, Blake Shelton – ‘You Are’ Video

Lionel Richie says there was as much laughter as there was music in the studio where he recorded his platinum-selling album, Tuskegee. And when you're doing a duet with Blake Shelton, that's pretty much inevitable. "I didn't realize how funny Blake is!" the music icon tells The Boot.

Blake and Lionel blend their powerful voices on the classic "You Are" for the project, which features some of Lionel's biggest hits remade as country duets. (See Tuskegee's full track list below.) They take us behind-the-scenes of the recording session in the video below.
