Review - :
{$Lionel Richie}'s eighth studio album as a solo artist is led by {&"I Call It Love,"} a lightly buoyant and bittersweet single produced by Swedish hitmakers {$Stargate}, the same team that helped boost {$Ne-Yo}'s {^In My Own Words}. It's an ideal match, one that should've been made more than once. Too much of {^Coming Home} is merely pleasant -- particularly the {\adult contemporary} fare, with the exception of {&"I Love You"} -- or too conscious of remaining with the times. While the likes of {&"Why"} and {&"Up All Night"} involved {$Richie}'s songwriting in some capacity, just about any twentysomething vocalist could be fronting them; the same goes for the {$Jermaine Dupri}-produced {&"What You Are."} The stab at emotionally cleansing {\reggae} of the {$Bob Marley} variety, {&"Stand Down,"} comes up short as well. That said, at least half the album should satisfy {$Richie}'s longtime followers. [A Japanese version included bonus tracks.] ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide
