-Our Intro Song "Feel the Love" From Alex's band
open.spotify.c...
There's no guilt in my appreciation of Hall & Oates. I love em.
but maybe there should be a little guilt. i'd feel guilty if i liked them. just sayin'...
Live from Daryl’s House here on RUclips. You’re welcome.
@@geedubh9058 yup
@GorgonTheHybrid Not a bit. Good music is good music. 'Nuff Said.
absolutely 100% this. They are the soundtrack to a lot of high school memories (along with a lot of other 80s music). Unlike a lot of that other music, I can listen to Hall & Oates and not feel the cringe.
Andy & Alex also need to listen to Daryl Hall's solo hit "Dreamtime."
If you ever get the chance, I think you'd like, "Live from Darryl's House."
It's a show where Darryl Hall has other artists come to his house and jam with his band, performing some of the artist's songs and some H&O tunes.
He's had everybody who's anybody on there, they play amazing versions of the tunes they work, they eat good food, and everybody seems to have a good time.
@@SaverioP Definitely more Rock music at his house. Sammy Hagar was a great episode
The O'Jays episode is amazing. I have watched it several times. Joe Walsh, CeeLo Green, Rob Thomas, Cheap Trick....all really good visits. Daryl's house band is top-notch
This
One of the best episodes IMO is with Tommy Shaw.
Live From Darryl's House is absolute must-see for any rock/music fan. From Guster to Ben Folds to more known artists like Sammy Hagar...he and his band elevate for all of them. The Joe Walsh episode might be the absolute best
One on One is an absolute must. It will hit you in all of your hypnotic and sensual feelings.
That's the One.
YES!! They should play the video of that - Daryl’s hair is EVERYTHING! (LOL!!) as is this song!!!
Hall & Oates rarely disappoints.
Kiss On My List is incredible
Great song!
Absolutely!
The best! 🎉
Alex finally sluffs off his 80's hate for good.
he just didnt understand. The 80s were every bit as legit as any other era. Artists didnt cheap out with synths they effectively used them as a compliment to the music. A bad song is not made better by synth it still has to be well written
Since Alex liked this, he might actually like Hall's solo piece "Dreamtime." Something I never thought I'd say.
Sloughs off 😉Sorry, hard as I try, I can't help myself....
Seeing Alex jamming out to this song, I can see him at the dance club in the 80's. Alex you were born too late it was a magical time.
Ceelo Green at Daryl Halls House song I cant go for that. will blow you away
Yes very good!
So good!
Yes!
I was a 70s hard rocker and initially dismissed Hall and Oates as "too mellow" and not my cup of tea, but as music changed in the 80s, that '82 album with "Man Eater" and "One on One" converted me to a fan. It motivated me to explore their older stuff. I loved this the first time it came on the radio!
I've been like that with a few artists I dismissed as a teen in the 80s trying to keep my man card...Duran Duran, Hall and Oates, Psychedelic Furs, Depeche Mode, all bands that I was required to dislike back then that I either secretly listened to or found out I liked later in life.
@@dougman23 I was just like that as a teen in the 70s. I secretly liked Bread, and I didn't appreciate Carole King until years later.
I'm eternally grateful to my Gen X parents for raising me on their music
Anything that Daryl hall is involved with is stellar. His voice!
He sure in the top 20 male singers imho.
Absolutely! I recommend their version of "Everytime You Go Away". Paul Young made it a hit, but it's actually their song-- and Daryl's voice is incredible on it!
Great reaction! “Kiss on My List” has to be your next Hall and Oates pick. It’s amazing.
Kiss on my List is my favorite 🎉 Out of Touch second 🎉🎉🎉
@@patrick3926 both are just so good.
I sometimes forget how great Daryl Hall's vocals are. He's on top of his game on this song.
I know this isn’t considered to be from H&O’s best period, but this is such a wonderful, near-perfect slice of 80’s pop.
WHAT! H&O was top stuff 1984-85.
That's highly debatable. Some people might prefer their '70s stuff. But this is from the era where they just had hit after hit...
Kiss on my List and Private Eyes are bangers
No guilt to be had! Method of Modern Love off the same album. BANGER!
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E..........LOL Talk about phrasing that sticks in your head.
@@carlgibbons5777exactly! 40 years later, and it’s still rattling around freely in my head.
" Smoking guns, hot to the touch, would cool down if we didn't use them so much" Woooeee, what a great line!
For me, it's Darryl's voice that always elevates them to a level worthy of celebrating. Sung by anyone else, they'd just be ok-good.
Check out Live From Daryl’s House to hear some damn good versions with other artists.
I had front row seats for this tour and I even got a guitar pick from John Oates. Back when you had to sleep on the sidewalk for hours if not days to get your tickets before Ticket Master. Hall and Oates owned the 80s !!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I remember!! ... back when life was a bit safer and waay waaay funner!!! 😊😊😊
The sound engineer for this album was so good. Perfect balance.
The great Bob Clearmountain of Born in the USA (Springsteen) and Reckless (Bryan Adams) fame. He was scorching hot in the mid-80s.
"Jay Burnett and Bob Clearmountain"
say no more......
Those slushy 80s keyboard patches in the intro tho. But hey, everybody was using them. In my band we had fights with our keyboardist not to use that crap.
thanks
I never thought about the production but you are right. Their recordings are wonderful.
You're missing out by not watching Live From Daryl's House. I loved the rendition of "I Can't Go For That" featuring CeeLo Green.
Another banger by Hall & Oates!
A perfect car sing along song! They owned the 80's!
1984 the year I graduated! The 80’s were the best, if only I could go back for just 1 day…who am I kidding, just to go back!!! 😍🤩 Listening to music from the 80’s I can picture where I was, what I was doing & oddly, smells…albeit seconds but they pop up 🤷♀️
I also graduated in '84 but have never been able to get into any 80's music. My musical soul will always remain in the late 60's & 70's❤
This was a big hit on MTV in 1984. You guys should watch the video along with the song because that is how we were introduced to the song when it was released. Anything you review from that era should include the video.
That's ridiculous. I was introduced to the song on the radio. To this day I've never seen the video, and I love the song. And they loved the song without seeing the video.
Now listen to the extended version with the “Dance On Your Knees” intro. The legendary Bob Clearmountain is the album producer.
Yep. I had bought the album, and the first song "Dance On Your Knees" dovetails so well into "Out of Touch", I got used to listening to them together, it always sounds slightly jarring and awkward when the "Out of Touch" single starts. I always thought it should have been released with both together as the single.
Philly blue eyed soul !
There was a period when Hall & Oates had so many hits in a short amount of time, they did build up resentment from all the success. It's nice that we can examine their music a song at a time and appreciate them more. Personally, I like this one but LOVE "I Can't Go For That". This is more of an A for me. Continuing in the 80's H&O era, I'd love the guys' take on "Method of Modern Love".
When I started watching you guys four or five years ago, I never thought you would love Hall & Oates, even though it’s great music! They had one hit after another. Definitely some of the most catchy music on the planet.
Great song. These guys were in a league of their own for a duo. You need to check out “Adult Education” next.
not better then Gheech and Chong .😃😃😃
@@sln104 - Oh wow! Now _that_ is a song that's been completely off my 📡, and for a very long time, too!
Thank you for bringing it back!
😀👍
@@markvanderstelt8999 Credit to Cheech and Chong also.
@@mightyV444 You’re welcome. The 70’s and 80’s were the best!
@@sln104 - You are not wrong about that!
😊👍
A very 80s sounding Hall & Oats song, but I'm more surprised to see Alex sharing it!
I loved Hall & Oates when I was in high school. But liked the older stuff more than the 80's pop songs. Give me Sara Smile anytime.
I was a rock fan but love all great music. Diverse palate. Hall & Oates were HUGE!! Love quite a few of their songs.
I can put A Flock of Seagulls right next to Creedence no prob!
@@RideAcrossTheRiver I love everything from James Taylor to Zep to Return To Forever and Vivaldi lol I started piano lessons at 8, drums at 12 and ended up a singer
Synth drums plus synthesizers. Quintessential 80's 👌
80s had trained genius musicians, new technology, and pop melodies. Incredible era.
please react to Hall and Oates "Family Man" 1982, the extended version 5:44
Or listen to the original version of Family Man by Mike Oldfield (best known for Tubular Bells) and featuring Maggie Reilly on vocals.
I swear this song comes on the radio and I just can't skip it. Ever.
A&A, you'll love their "Kiss on My List" !!!!
YEEEEAAAAH!!!!!!!❤
The best! 🎉
An "instant classic" in 1984, became a #1 smash on the billboard charts!
Yeah, for the 1980's I'd hit "One On One", "Private Eyes", "Kiss On My List" and even their cover of "You've Lost That Loving Feeling".
Brilliant song. Great reaction, as always
A great pop song is a great pop song, no matter who does it.
Everyone should go watch the music video for this song, it's fantastic
Loved your reaction to this song; Hall & Oates are the soundtrack of my teens & early 20’s. They were at the top of their game & the band was phenomenal. I use to hate brussel sprouts too; now I cook them in the oven with garlic & onion powder & lightly toss them in olive oil; yum!
Also, check out early Daryl Hall solo work: "Dreamtime" off of his 1986 album "Three Hearts In The Happy Ending Machine." Much deeper, cut-wise, is Hall's sublime performance of the song "North Star" off of Robert Fripp's 1979 album "Exposure." VERY worthwhile!
A lot of people missed the 80s listening to 70s music. Once you explore the 80s alternative music (which is completely different from alternative music now)
You discover not just pop but New Wave, two tone, ska, rockabilly revival, funk, fusion, soul, synth pop, sophisti pop, punk etc, you’ll see everything was original and each band had their own style. It was generally more harmonic and more melodic and complex than subsequent music. It was the renaissance of pop music.
Well I have seen it all. Alex is gone from his least favorite decade of music to Sharing the definition of 80s pop on a music share Monday.
I grew up in the 80s, but I totally understand why Alex doesnt like the late 80s overproduction. Its not the music, its the sound. This song, being 1984, just makes the cut. By 1985, production values were starting to make music sound piercing, shrill and sterile. Its not about the music, it's the way the snare drum and guitars sound. The Big Bam Boom album is produced damn good. Their next album, Ooh Yeah is an overproduction mess. The production is so over the top, it ruins the music. I can tell that underneath all that crap production, there is a good song " Rocket To God" as an example . Had that song came out in 1982, it would have been fantastic. "Missed Opportunity" and " everything your heart desires", same thing - fire the producer, and would have been great. Bon Jovi is a band I would have loved, had the producers stripped it down. First BonJovi is well produced, then 1985 came along, and of course everything had to start sounding shrill. Traveling Wilburys and Tom Pettys Full Moon Fever are examples of what late 80s production should have sounded like - organic and very close to the actual sounds of the instruments. Robert Palmers Bad Case of Loving You from 79, sounds great. Take that same song, with the 1989 remix on his Addictions greatest hits remixed album, and suddenly the song just sucks.
Kudos Alex, yes you have grown your appreciation of 80s music. Y'all got to do "One on One" next, as it has a peculiar feel.
Hall and Oates are so woven into the fabric of my childhood. I can pretty much classify any 70s or 80s band as either “Mom’s music” or “Dad’s music.” There’s some overlap, but Hall & Oates is 100% my dad. He appreciated really solid production… Steely Dan, Supertramp, ABBA, Hall & Oates
Love Hall & Oates from across the pond in the UK. Happy memories 😁
"Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid" is a must. And a version of it with John from Goo Goo Dolls on Live from Daryl's House is phenomenal
Out of touch is my 3rd favorite of Hall & Oats, i always pair it with Method of Modern love (my 2nd, first place is she's gone) they are both ear candy to me. Would love to see you take a listen to Method.
"Say It Isn't So"
Brussels sprouts done right are indeed the bomb. You ain't wrong there, Alex!
Next for Hall & Oates: "Private Eyes", "Say It Isn't So", "Kiss On My List", "Wait For Me", "So Close"
Wait for Me is one of my faves, too!
totally underrated H&O song!
SUCH a great song! YES! one of my all time favorites by them. MORE, MORE, MORE! and I also love this jacket as well.
This was their last #1 hit. I love this song. I was just sixteen when this was released.
Out of Touch my fav H & O song by far, love it!
I saw them early 80s and they were bloody great. Will have to look it up, 82/3? Whatever, the sax player wandered about in the audience whilst playing. Pretty cool.
What did we do for fun? Go to a gig, always, first and last. Plus b/f and brother owned a record shop. What fun we had. Free tickets, merch, album artwork. Sigh. Great daze.
Hall and Oates always on the party mix tape.
“Sara Smile” (in case you have not done it). You hit it with The Eagles’ catchiness.
in the 80's they were just bangers, everything was just sooooooo good!
Hall & Oates again! They're okay for what they do, but no reason to revisit them again considering all the great music you guys still haven't sampled, especially classic songs you haven't heard from bands you already love. Deep Purple: "Strange Kind Of Woman", "My Woman From Tokyo"; Heart: "Kick It Out", "Cook With Fire"; The Cars: "You're All I've Got Tonight" (Elliot Easton guitar banger...so much guitar!); Santana: "She's Not There" (yes, Zombies cover), "No One To Depend On"; The Guess Who: "No Time" (fuzzy guitars galore); Paul McCartney: "Helen Wheels" (non-album single from the Band On The Run sessions); David Gilmour: "There's No Way Out Of Here"; Creedence Clearwater Revival: "Midnight Special"; Velvet Underground: "Sweet Jane", "Cool It Down"; Sex Pistols: "Pretty Vacant"; Nirvana: "Come As You Are", "All Apologies"; Buzzcocks: “What Do I Get?”, “Everybody’s Happy Nowadays”; The Clash: “Guns On The Roof”, “Safe European Home”; Neil Young “When You Dance I Can Really Love”, “Revolution Blues”; Steely Dan: "Don't Take Me Alive".
I understand what you are saying about Taylor Swift, but she has literally never written a song this good in her life.
I’m shaking off this comment 🤗
will we be playing Tayor Swift in 40 years.. doubt it. Her music is basically a franchise, made by teams of people.. disposable content
Lol
Totally different audience. My 5 year old granddaughter is a die hard fan, along with thousands of other little girls. Her music is not my thing but she is a great role model for little girls....compared to any other female artists of today.
Are you Gay??
One of those songs that triggers the feelings and the memory. Time goes by so fast
Little things- like the title repeat over and over going to the fade out. Hall songs it uniquely different EVERY single time- changing it up so that it never ever gets old- makes SUCH a difference.
"You found your sweet chili brussels sprouts" lmao love it
I sure was lucky to be in high school when all of these great songs came out!
Got this cassette for christmas '84. Their most underrated track....more muscular than given credit for....momentous.
Big Bam Boom was one of the first albums I bought when I got my record player. Still have it :). Any song on that record feels great to listen to and brings me right back.
Dance on your knees!
Great choice guys! As a guy who graduated HS in 1983, I can say that Hall & Oates were 1 of the 4 giants of music at this point (Van Halen, Journey & Foreigner).
"Big Bam Boom" is a killer album!
Hall & Oats Big Bam Boom is quintessential 1980s! Especially Out of Touch and Method of Modern Love.
You should check out J. D. Souther's _Silver Blue_ from his album _Black Pearl_ . Not the Linda Ronstadt version of his song with him doing her backup vocal, but his solo version. His acoustic guitar is haunting.
Guys... they murdered the 80's.
I saw hall and Oates and tears for fears in Boston. Ive been to too many concerts. Ive seen so many bands. This was by far the best one I’ve ever seen. These two groups were complete representations of their generation. Like no other. Look up… tears for fears -“creep” cover. Its quite good
I do think you two are doing the right thing by getting your first impressions by listening to just the songs' audio, however, there are songs like this one where I warmly recommend to also check out the very entertaining video clip!
😊👍
Still my favourite H&O song today, closely followed by 'I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)' 😍
love the faces and head bobs and sways. FEELIN the music
GOOOOOOOOD MORNING A&A FAMILY! ☮️💟♾️
Good Morning, John!!!
Hi John!
@@allisonreed7682 Hi Allison!
Soundtrack of my childhood. Epic song.
Darryl Hall did a series called Live at Darryl’s House for a while where he would have a different guest musician every episode and they would take turns doing each other’s songs. He had C-Lo Greene on one and I’ll tell you what, you haven’t lived until you’ve heard Darryl Hall singing “Fuck You.”
This was their last song to hit # 1 on the billboard hot 100, from 1984. It may have gotten overlooked but its a great song from a great year.1984 was a watershed year for music with Purple Rain, Born in the USA, Tina Turner's resurgence and Madonna dropping Like a Virgin
I think Van Halen had a pretty popular album that year as well. What was it called again...
And Cyndi Lauper's She's So Unusual album.
@@kroft67991984🤪🤫👾
@@Historian212 1984 was a great year for music
We were so jaded back in the 80’s. So much good music.
I saw Hall and Oates in the late 90’s, acoustic night. It was the best concert I have ever been to, and I have gone to over 50 in my lifetime. They are incredible!
(Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid) Iss also pretty AWESOME!!! Just a thought!!!
This song is AMAZING and definitely one of my favorites from Hall & Oates; another favorite of mine is the hidden gem "Italian Girls"
My fave of theirs ❤❤❤
I have a new- found appreciation for Hall and Oates after hearing this. I was listening to The Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, lots of Prog and Acid Rock when this came out. But my parents listened to this pop radio station in the mornings when they were getting ready for work. I heard this song one morning, and to my surprise as this was " too easy rock for me", I started singing to it. This particular version you played is much clearer than what I heard on their radio and is longer. What an incredible production.
This really needed the "Dance on Your Knees" intro
Was thinking same thing Andy brought up about Alex’s 80s change of tune lol
Great polyrhythms and syncopation on this whole album form a984 (since they brought in Arthur Baker, the remixer for Afrika Bambaatta as a “mix consultant.”
You want peak pop and catchy? You’ve got to give a listen to their Kiss On My List! It’s definitely a BANGER!
My favorite Hall & Oates song!
Hall has an incredible voice, but it’s Oates’s songwriting thats super under appreciated…dude came out with incredible melodic lines and guitar parts
TRUST ME on this my music lovin' brothers,, Most music critics (& myself) consider THIS their best album,, Hall & Oates "Abandoned Luncheonette"..A true MUST hear!! 🔥❤️
This was my favorite song when it came out. Would watch MTV hoping it would come on. No music on demand for a kid back then
Another of my favorites from H&O!! Thank you guys!! 🙂
Blue Eyed Soul. Every one of their records was air tight perfection! Please do "Method of Modern Love"
This song gives me so much nostalgia. It was also perfect for Vice City.
such a great song
You really need to hit Do What You Want, Be What You Are, one of their earliest hits.
If you guys are going to run ads/have sponsors, keep them in line with the channel like you just did with the Guitar Academy. It just fits!!!
The intro "Dance on your knees" is a must when playing this track. 1st 2 tracks on the album are basically one track as they segue brilliantly and the intro is only 1& 1/2 minutes long. Excellent album incidentally. ... You need to hear "Some things are better left unsaid" from this same album. Probably best track on the album ... which is saying something as every track is brilliant ! Don't say noone recommended it and why did it take so long to finally hear it if you wait months before you do ? The fade out goes very low...but ... listen to the very final seconds ...that scream !! It's a powerful track.
Yes! Was waiting for this! ❤ Thank you!!! 😄
