For the intro sequence of the episode, Choir! Choir! Choir! leaders Daveed Goldman and Nobu Adilman were tasked with the challenge of teaching a group of American Idol contestants a composition of Richie’s 1983 hit “Hello” in a half hour. As Richie arrives at the American Idolaudition building he is delightfully surprised by a group singing a beautiful rendition of his song.
