“Nightshift” is a 1985 hit song by the Commodores and title track from the album of the same name. The song was a tribute to Jackie Wilson and Marvin Gaye, two famous R&B musicians who had died in 1984.

This song was the first hit attained by the Commodores following Lionel Richie’s departure from the group. It was also their biggest hit after Richie’s departure, peaking at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and rising to number one on the Hot Black Singles chart, as well as number three in the UK Singles Chart.

Although the band was against the label’s decision to release it as a single, it won a Grammy Award in 1985 for Best Vocal R&B Performance by a Duo/Group. The song features the lead vocal from drummer Walter Orange, whose lead appeared years before on the hugely popular “Brick House”.

The Commodores re-recorded a version dedicated to Michael Jackson in 2010.

This one has a good pose and the outfit looks really good.

mmm…not too sure about this one, it does not really look like MJ. I think it’s facial features, it’s not as precise as the top model. However, if anyone does go, please send us picture. Spread Love. If we were in New York we would have been there already.
