Beginning with their first hit in 1974 and lasting well
into the '80s, Daryl Hall and John Oates' smooth, catchy
take on Philly soul brought them enormous success,
including six number one singles and six platinum albums.
Hall & Oates' music was remarkably well-constructed and
produced; at their best, their songs were filled with
strong hooks and melodies that adhered to soul traditions
without being a slave to them by incorporating elements of
new wave and hard rock.
On their first records – "Whole Oates" (1972), "Abandoned
Luncheonette" (1973), "War Babies" (1974) – the duo were
establishing their sound, working with producers like Arif
Mardin and Todd Rundgren and removing much of their folk
influences. At the beginning of 1974, the duo relocated
from Phil More...

Beat the Lyrics | Reviewer: JT
------ About the song Fall in Philadelphia performed by Hall & Oates
The beat is good and the lyrics are funny, especially for someone like me who grew up in Philly. But there's a lot of good things not touched on. Still, love the song and I thank my mother for introducing me to it. I give it 5/5 stars!
So Close | Reviewer: sandy
------ About the song So Close performed by Hall & Oates
This song is exactly how I feel.. This song is about me and how I feel about my husband.. So many times I could have called while out and didnt.. I feel sooo far away all the time!
Also, you can see and hear it the its the lyrical work of Jon Bon Jovi. By the way he is the hottest man on the planet!
Rich Girl, Bitch Girl.... | Reviewer: carmela llarinas
------ About the song Rich Girl performed by Hall & Oates
Soooo true...it pricks me? Nope, am a gud girl!
This song really sends me over the moon and is tops on my playlist. But hey guys, when will you conquer Manila again? Seeing you in the flesh sends me to ecstasy.
This is my favorite H & O song. It shows their early jazz influences. It sweetly tells the story of Darryl's frustrations at having his woman out of town so often. This song kind of inspired me to name my oldest daughter. The way Darryl hangs on Sar-ah just sorta stuck the name in my head. Funny how stuff happens isn't it?

Hall & Oates Rules Forever!!!! | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Say It Isn't So performed by Hall & Oates
This song is one of the most melodic and haunting of Hall & Oates' songs, and one of my top 3 favorite H&O songs of all time. What can I say - they're still the best group of the 80's hands down!!!
Rich girl | Reviewer: Candy Oli
------ About the song Rich Girl performed by Hall & Oates
I feel like I am when I didnt have anything when I was younger. My father sat us all a nest egg but my Mother is trying to take everything away from me now. I am her only child that never got into trouble or did anything wrong.
I know as of today.. My Daddy is looking down protecting me.
Hall's vocal talents in combination with honest lyrics continue to address the human nature of desire and the power of seduction. Intoxicating in the 80s as well as now; it is timeless.

H&O: The greatest song writers of all time! | Reviewer: Brett J. Grifo
------ About the song I Can't Go For That (No Can Do) performed by Hall & Oates
To put it simply, Hall & Oates' "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" is the greatest song ever written. It inspires me as a song writer to pull out my guitar (plus mic stand) and write lyrics that come straight from the heart. The line <Don't even think about it say No Go> has been discussed endlessly at my H&O fan club meetings and on our H&O message boards. It is so deep we still can't come to an agreement on what they meant! The <say No Go> part, in particular, gives me chills! And what about the word <almost> in the line <I'll do almost anything that you want me to>? I haven't even been able to start trying to get my mind around that one! Incredible. This type of pure, unadulterated genius is undoubtedly lacking in today's music. Simply put -- Ever stop listening to Hall & Oates? I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)!
