Stuck on You” is a song written by and originally recorded by Lionel Richie. It was the fourth single released from his second studio album Can’t Slow Down released on May 1, 1984, by Motown, and achieved chart success, particularly in the U.S. and the UK, where it peaked at number three and number 12, respectively. “Stuck on You” reached number one on the Adult Contemporary chart, Richie’s seventh chart topper.

The song marks Lionel Richie’s country music debut, and indeed, “Stuck on You” peaked at number 24 on the country chart. As such, the single’s cover photo shows Richie wearing a cowboy hat.

The song appears in a 2022 TV commercial for Pringles during NBC’s coverage of Super Bowl LVI on February 13, 2022.

The song differs from Richie’s other compositions, as it displays a country pop influence rather than R&B.

Other covers and sampling

Another cover was recorded by British reggae singer Trevor Walters in 1984 (only 3 months after the original). This version was Walters’ biggest hit in his home country peaking inside the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart. In fact, it was so successful that it peaked higher than Richie’s original.
