@@mokumboi19 Looks like we're dealing in semantics. Simon and Garfunkel are listed as the top selling folk-rock duo. Hall and Oates are listed as the top selling rock duo of all time.
@@davidellis7786 Best I can tell, they are around 30 million albums worldwide. Obviously, almost all of that is in the US. From what I can find, The Carpenters are the #3 selling duo, Brooks & Dunn #4.
❤Hard to overstate how huge these guys were…absolutely ruled the charts in the early eighties. Live at Daryl’s House also a great show if you want to explore all kinds of great artists. Yes Amber…both of ya’ll were blushing. 🎉 Your genuine smiles there were priceless.
This is definitely one of the most R&B tunes delivered by Hall & Oates. I think you’d love their rendition of You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling. And now that you are appreciating Hall & Oates, you should really revisit She’s Gone … I think you’ll enjoy it much more now.
Hall & Oats we’re my favorite songsters in the 70s and 80s! They certainly were the blue eyed soul brothers! Every song had rhyme and soul a definite what do you say VIBE!
I think I would describe Daryl Hall's voice as "soulfully mellow", "jazzy-smooth", or "tempered funk", it depends on the nature of the song arrangement that he is singing over. Whatever a particular track requires of his voice, Hall has a knack for supplying exactly what the song needs to take it to that next level in the stratosphere. He and his bandmates were a perfect fit, that's why their music was always so darn good! :)
Imo this is one of the sexiest songs ever written. Hall n Oates are definitely in my top five all time fav groups. There’s really nothing like them. Soooo much talent on every end. And Hall is just a born song writer
Darryl has a sultry quality to his voice. and the harmony with John is sublime. Every song they had was a hit. And the variety of their music, never-ending. I don't think they ever had a bad song. "Adult Education" is gr8 and "Maneater".
Daryl Hall wrote this song for their 11th studio album H20 In 1983. The beautiful drum beat, saxophone, along with synthesizer and blended harmonies make for a sure hit. The lyrics incorporate various sport metaphors to describe seduction. So clever. Vocals over the moons, standard for Hall and Oates. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
@@NoName-fx9zi Maybe you should listen to your imagination Daryl Holmes John Oates doesn't good but there's a version from daryl's house hes got some good looking blonde and d*** nice sounds good doing it your imagination at Darrell's house
His voice is a legit unique instrument. His voice is a gift. If you want to see a revealing vid watch the “Live at Daryl’s house” clip with Smokey Robinson/Daryl Hall singing “Sara Smile” and then morphing into “Ooh baby baby”. The soul is seamless between those two legendary soul singers and those two legendary songs.
Hamish from the original Average White Band line up may have a better falsetto range than Daryl Hall. Check out the AWB's song Cloudy, from their live Person to Person album. Hamish shows his amazing range!! Terrific live song too!
Mentioned before, but Daryl Hall still is very active in the music scene. He invites artist to his house and they jam out. It's called live at Daryl's House.
Daryl Hall has one of the most sultry voices in popular music. It is so distinctive and sultry. I think his and John Oates' voices blend so well. Check out their hit Possession Obsession, one of those rare hits led by John. I love them, they are the best of "blue-eyed soul"! ❤❤
John Oates's vocals shouldn't be discounted either! I always tell people to check out their cover of "You Lost That Lovin' Feeling", he sounds so smooth!
The higher registers that Daryl Hall is singing at in this song is called FALSETTO, boys & girls. And he has always had an amazing ability to slide into it easily from lower octaves. I gotta create a Hall & Oates playlist on my Spotify now. Thanks, y’all!
Saw their live performance a few times. If you can believe it they are even better in person. They add some extra spice to their music. Great duo! Ultra-talented.
One of their best slow jams, for sure. Hall & Oates' voices always blended so beautifully. I hope you'll react to their single 'Wait For Me' or maybe 'Go Solo'. Thanks for the video.
Aren't you so much happier after hearing a H&O song??? That's what I like from them. They are so good that make you happier anytime 🙂 Same thing with Huey Lewis & the News, in a complete different style. I really love these 80's bands, so much. Regards from Chile!! 🙂 Happy New Year!!!
I've been a huge Hall & Oates fan from their beginning. So good live. In addition to their vocals, the musicianship is off the charts! You could do a lot of videos on Hall & Oates!
"Everytime You Go Away", with powerful lead vocals by Hall, who wrote it. British singer Paul Young had a Billboard Number 1 hit with a cover of the song in 1985. Though the Hall and Oates original (recorded in a Memphis-soul style) was never released as a single, it remains a fan favorite on the duo's greatest hits albums, and was featured on their Apollo Theater album in 1985, and is frequently featured in their live set to this day.
Yay, so glad you guys did this one! J, I saw you start for that pause button but then you waited a minute, good for you! And Amber, I could see you melting (just like I do when I hear this....great video too, eh?)
The bass guitar is the unsung hero in this song. The choices the bass player is making are gorgeous especially in the chorus. My favorite part to listen to in this song.
Hall and Oats is a songwriting powerhouse! They have so many Top 10 hits it's crazy! Finally saw them in Chicago a few years back, with Tears For Fears as the opening act. It was just an amazing and great double bill!
I was just waiting for Jordan's reaction to that first falsetto note😃. His joy of hearing those notes is like the joy Amber has hearing the horn section in songs.😄 I know you love the song "Me and Mrs. Jones", and they have an awesome cover of that song you might want to check out.
It's called Natural...his upper octave bis no nasal, first note is not jarring or loud, he doesn't have to be loud to maintain it either. Totally smooth, it's as natural as his speaking voice!
When I was a young lady back in the day, I loved old school funk, R&B, Disco and absolutely loved Daryl Hall & John Oates. I wasn't too into rock or anything else so I didn't understand why they stood out to me. Of course after I began working in radio I finally understood why I loved them so much. Finally understood what genres meant. They were my kind of music. Still love them to this day.
Heard this song hundreds of times. Never knew it was called “One on One”. Always thought he was just saying “want I want I wanna play that game tonight”
Number one all time duo. Their string of hits is amazeballs! Pay close attention to the background harmonies,,, Not too mention ball the songs they wrote for others. Every Time U Go, by Paul Young, as an example...
Daryl Hall has one of the best voices of the 80's, hands down! SUCH SOUL!!!! As a 70's & 80's music junkie, you know all of their music is good when I own their greatest hits album.
One of the sexiest songs of the 80s. Some memories right there. And, yes, I did have Daryl Hall's haircut -- which makes me smile... and laugh! The things you could do with mousse back then!
Hall is one of the greatest lyricist of the 20th century. There is a hidden quality to his writing. Note that the words he uses, the end and beginning syllables slide together. You don't need to rearrange your lips to get to the next sound: "One on One I wanna" and "I'll pay the devil to replace her, she's gone, she's gone" and countless other combinations smoothly transition the lips and tongue from word to word. Pure poetry and genius from a syllabic point of view..
There is a 12inch single extended mix of this, that makes the song even better, the drum machine has a lot more bass groove and the mix allows the song more space to breathe
I have that version and you're absolutely right about the drum and bass groove - great call! Truthfully, H20 is a criminally underrated album of theirs, especially some of the non-hits like "Guessing Games" and "At Tension."
This band is EXCELLENT. You just don't get how exceptionally talented every single band member is, especially Daryl Hall. The best way to describe his voice is simply this... the perfect blue-eyed soul voice just like you said, Amber. There are so many great blue-eyed soul singers, but my top 3 are: 1)Daryl Hall 2) Michael McDonald and 3) Michael Bolton.

One of the sexiest songs of all time with no vulgar lyrics and no one humping anything in the video
I grew up in the 80s and 90s and both were MONSTER decades for music. Hall and Oates were AMAZING
Hall & Oates are terribly under appreciated.
Hall & Oates are the top selling duo of all time. Such great harmonies and musicianship.
Pretty sure they are 2nd, but Simon & Garfunkel are definitely the #1 selling duo by Billboard.

Still dominating till forever 😊
Daryl's Voice Description..........Nothing short of SOULFUL!! He even describes their music as Rock 'N Soul!!
Daryl Hall's voice floats from note to note like a hummingbird darts from flower to flower. In the high register, he is spontaneous, but never random.
*Joanne/Asia* Yeah,I Think they Loosely Call it his "False"
Ok....poetic lady
Daryl Hall is easily one of the greatest, yet most underrated voices of the late 70s/early 80s.
I agree!
I hope your 2023 has had a great start so far
Daryl Hall has got such a great voice. And you can always hear those classic soul influences coming through.
Criminally underrated vocalist.
DH: effortless, deceptively simple and smooth as butter.......
Took over where Barry Gibb left off!
I love Hall & Oates! Private Eyes and Maneater are some of my favorites from my childhood!
Here’s your smile for today! 😊

Those 70s greats are still hanging in there! Kep it going, guys and galls!
Oh that was awesome
They are such great live performers

His voice is smooth as butter....absolutely love Hall & Oats!

“Am I blushing” best line ever!
Blue eyed soul at it's best. Their version of 'you've lost that loving feeling' is my favourite one. Peace out.
Hall & Oats we’re my favorite songsters in the 70s and 80s! They certainly were the blue eyed soul brothers! Every song had rhyme and soul a definite what do you say VIBE!
Just an FYI, Darryl Hall despises the term "blue eyed soul". There is an in-depth interview with him about that and his explanation is quite eloquent.
@@TritoneChris ….send me a link to that… actually it’s a complement!

My favorite Hall and Oates song, hands down. Way too smooth with such a nasty groove!
Great song that gets overlooked ❤
Way too often. Watching Daryl do this song live on that tour was awesome! He took that song to another level in conceert!
Hall had the best hair in the 80's in Rock and Roll, and Oates had the best moustache!
One of the best groups of the 80's. Great time to grow up.
Hamish from the original Average White Band line up may have a better falsetto range than Daryl Hall. Check out the AWB's song Cloudy, from their live Person to Person album. Hamish shows his amazing range!! Terrific live song too!
My favorite Hall and Oates song. There is nothing better than slow dancing to this!
My favorite song also. I was fortunate to see them years ago in Germany when I was in the Air Force.
The "musicians" of today could learn a thing or two from Hall and Oates; a beautiful message of sensuality without the use of one vulgarity.
I was just typing something similar when i saw this comment!
Love Hall and Oates
One on One has always been my favorite song of theirs. 😊

Hall and Oats original version of EVERY TIME YOU GO AWAY As Soon As Possible!!!

So silky smooth....he goes off on amazing vocal riffs and makes it look like it's no big deal.

Made it look like the most natural thing in the world to make the changes so smoooothly, too. His vocal riffs are legendary, IMHO.
No shit sherlock 😄
yeah he is a rare artist that can use falsetto without really sounding falsetto because he hits it so sharp. Just crazy good.
Daryl Hall has the kind of voice that makes a good girl wanna go bad.
🎯 🎯🎯
And a bad girl wanna stay bad….
My favorite duo
Saw their live performance a few times. If you can believe it they are even better in person. They add some extra spice to their music. Great duo! Ultra-talented.
I agree. Saw them at Budokan in the 80's. Wonderful show!
Agree - saw them in a nice small theater, blown away. Oates' voice shockingly good.
agreed. my parents took me to see them in person as a kid
One of their best slow jams, for sure. Hall & Oates' voices always blended so beautifully. I hope you'll react to their single 'Wait For Me' or maybe 'Go Solo'. Thanks for the video.

Daryl's voice is at times, almost ethereal. It floats, he's got soul.
I karaoke'd this a few years back. A mother-beautiful song. The sax solo is the most beautiful in rock.
It's smooth timeless felt an sang with such soul an heart an with this effortless control of his voice
I am STILL a huge fan of Hall & Oates ❤ did you ever react to their song “Maneater” or “Family Man”? Two more for the list 😂
Hope they do, great songs
