Richard Noel Marx nació el 16 de septiembre de 1963 en Chicago, Illinois, en una familia con fuerte inclinación musical. Su padre, Dick Marx, era un arreglista y compositor talentoso, y su madre, Ruth Marx, una cantante profesional. Desde una edad temprana, Richard estuvo inmerso en un ambiente lleno de música, lo cual influyó profundamente en su carrera posterior.
Richard comenzó a mostrar interés por la música desde niño. A los cinco años, ya cantaba jingles para comerciales de televisión, muchos de los cuales fueron compuestos por su padre. Estas experiencias tempranas en el estudio de grabación sentaron las bases para su fascinante carrera.
A los 17 años, Richard Marx envió una cinta de demostración a Lionel Richie, quien se interesó de inmediato en su talento. Richie lo invitó a Los Ángeles para trabajar como corista y compositor. En esa ciudad, Richard Marx continuó perfeccionando sus habilidades y componiendo música para otros artistas, incluyendo a Kenny Rogers y Freddie Jackson.
En 1987, Richard lanzó su álbum debut homónimo, "Richard Marx". Este álbum fue un éxito rotundo, alcanzando el puesto número 8 en el Billboard 200 y generando cuatro sencillos exitosos: "Don't Mean Nothing", "Should've Known Better", "Endless Summer Nights" y "Hold On to the Nights". Sus letras sentimentales y melodías cautivadoras le ganaron seguidores en todo el mundo.

Stranger in the mirror, I was just somebody else
Stumblin' through the night, so lost that I didn't even know myself
You came out of nowhere just in time
One more minute, I'd have lost my mind
And it was somethin' 'bout the way you looked at me
Shut the door on everything I used to be
I found myself in your arms
Now, I don't wanna know a world without you, love
Nothin' but you could ever be enough, yeah
You were the one, you were the one all along
Think about the years I was livin', half asleep, yeah
Goin' through the motions, drownin' in an ocean
That felt forever deep
Yeah, and you came out of nowhere just in time (oh, just in time)
I was days away from goin' blind
And it was somethin' 'bout the way you looked at me
Shut the door on everything I used to be
I found myself in your arms (found myself in your arms)
Now, I don't wanna know a world without you, love
Nothin' but you could ever be enough, yeah
You were the one, you were the one all along
It was always, it was always, it was always you
It was always, it was always, it was always you (it was always you)
It was always, it was always, it was always you (oh-whoa, yeah-yeah)
It was always, it was always, it was always you
And it was somethin' 'bout the way you looked at me ('bout the way)
Shut the door on everything I used to be
I found myself in your arms (found myself in your arms)
Now, I don't wanna know a world without you, love
Nothin' but you could ever be enough, yeah
You were the one, you were the one all along (you were the one, yeah-yeah)
It was always, it was always, it was always you
It was always, it was always, it was always you
It was always, it was always, it was always you (it was always you)
It was always, it was always you
