Out of H&O's many wonderful songs, "So Close" has some of my favorite lyrics. "Dropped a coin in the jukebox / Not the phone on the wall"... "There's a restless look in your eyes tonight / Are you lookin' for some way out of here". Powerful. And both the acoustic and electric versions of this song are great.
H&O are as great live as recorded. Marvin Gaye "Distant Lover "Live ,will knock your knickers off , Luther Vandross , could sing a commercial jingle and it would do the same.
I bet everybody listening to this song knows exactly where they were. , Who they were with and when 💯🌹They first heard this song so close, yet so far away!! It truly is such a poetic expression of love❤
You’d be wrong, but it’s still a great song that brings up a ton of memories. Anyone who has ever loved someone who left because they needed something else/more can relate to this song. It also speaks to the timeless question of why can’t live between two people just be enough?
Wow! Look ve all of it! Organ solo power guitars, and of course this tear jerker! And Daryl, that looks no nooooooooooote at the end. Aren’t you glad your Mother had you “panting like a dog” to build your Vocal Support System! As you know, I too late ve❤️So Close and an “ alternate version lurks!🎶🎼🎹🎤❤️😎🌴
This slower, unplugged version is much better than the album version. I would be willing to bet the producer wanted the album version, but Hall and Oates probably prefer this version. Simply amazing.
Hey Paulla my Love ! - We were so close - Yet so far away !We were good together - Really good ! Why did the same fate that thrust us together - Two hurting people - Who eventually found the love we had been searching for in each other ! - Just to tear us apart - Again ? I never remarried ! - You were the one ! Thankyou for sharing this beautiful song - As you see it means alot ! - Thankyou!
Two people from opposite sides of the world meet... nothing in common. We understand each other... Love... finds us and throws us together different but alike...Giving the other what they need...My life...
the love that showed up 43 years ago.........for me...promised to love me for ever......my father performed the ceremony.. the I do we vowed to each other.........forever the love we felt..... who does that anymore?? the close.........love looks for.....
I MET HIM ON THE BEACH. . not In high school....He had a job and could mARRY ME...... he did.....took me to the place I never dreamed I would go ....but I did ......He loved me...........and still does............ the one after 43 years is still here.....
Nice look Daryl. But I don't understand the song. That's okay though, because this has nothing to do with me. I wonder if the person that you first had the idea to sing this song for, did she understand what you were trying to say, or imply?
If this was a message, or a hint, then I guess there's no pleasing you, cause I have done nothing but love you. (And provide ALOT of compliments and support). Maybe I should start loving myself for a change. I DO have questionable health, you know. Bye baby.

Mister perfect ! Love Daryl Hall what a talent and his voice is outstanding ♥️🎶♥️🎶
Just wonderful.

Always thought they had the most intelligent lyrics.
Quite possibly one of the best singers in the world of soul, pop and rock.
THE BEST !!!! Not just one of the best ! LOL
Yes Andrea, bold statement, but true! ;)
Love me some Daryl
Totally agree... Have been a fan for many years
He is the greatest ♥️🎶♥️
This is my alltime fav version of this song. They way Daryl does those little flutter notes makes me lose my breath.
Gorgeous!
I love this version. Pulls at your heart. Love these guys
Wonderful live version of a great song. Fantastic gifted musicians and brilliant vocals by Daryl
Daryl's vocals are so amazing! I remember how much I loved his voice when I first heard of them!

OMG, just became my FAVORITE version of this song!! "Acoustic power!"
I just realized I love Hall & Oates. They've been around my whole life and I never fully appreciated them until now. How is that possible?
Seen them in 1991 live in acoustic and I can only say, great in the 80's and still great music now
Love this song and album! We saw H&O when this album came out. Great concert!
Excellent, I always enjoy Hall & Oates.
BEAUTIFUL MUSIC!.....my favorite at the moment.....
One of my Forever Favs ❤ Distance not as strong as love ❤🔥

I can feel the emotion in Daryl's voice. I am moved every time I listen.
The live version with Jason Mraz (Live from Daryl's House) blows me away!
NOTHING better!!!! soooo beautiful
THE FEELS. So beautiful. Oh Daryl.
Watched these guys in Manchester Apollo UK about 20 years ago, best concert I've seen (apert from the Ramones), love Daryl's front room.
amazing voice
Danke für diese Wahnsinns Scheibe !!! Danke Lisa, ist einer meiner Favoriten geworden !!
Gute Musiker sind halt rar...
The best male singer ever.
Saw this tour in Richmond at The Mosque. It was terrific. I was in college at VCU and it was so cool.
This slower, unplugged version is much better than the album version. I would be willing to bet the producer wanted the album version, but Hall and Oates probably prefer this version. Simply amazing.
What an amazing arrangement! How many perfomers can do acoustic as well as "studio" and knock your socks off?
Stunning!
Hands down the best vocalist. Love Daryl & John.

Daryl has one of the Best voices in the businesses -

One of their best songs. Ever.

I LOVE HALL & OATES !!!!!!!!

Chris Turner
DH & JO are brilliant. Why people forget this, I don’t know. Next, watch “Getaway Car.” Epic.
Great song. Love that performance. Getaway Car.
it is all about darryl motown voice which is everlasting
Epic!
I saw them in March 1991....
Brilliant
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeetttt. Love the talent
Your the best ❤
No it was not. It was a collaboration with a few different writers and Daryl Hall and
Jon Bon Jovi were part of it, but not Ricky Sambora.
I love Daryl but this had me in tears... :)
In their prime 👏🏽
Daryl Hall is a musical god.
yes!
IMO it's so so much better the studio version
Now it registers... "Daryl's House" in the making
Wow, this live version was so different from the album
💕💕💕
❤👍
great great greeeeet
@NYtoTX Yes!
So close to you. We need Daryl's Houses 🏘️ in Vegas and Myrtle Beach ⛱ 😎 please 🙏 💘
Sometimes I wish I had my Sara with me :/
Nice look Daryl.
But I don't understand the song.
That's okay though, because this has nothing to do with me.

I DO have questionable health, you know.
Bye baby.
Daryl at his Hottest!
Sigh ❤

泣いたなあ、この曲聴いて。
ホール＆オーツで一番の名曲だと思う。
もちろん、アコースティックバージョンがね。
Anyone know who is playing the mandolin?
That’s T-Bone just playing his guitar so it sounds mandolin-like
fuck, what's that on his head!
Love him🩵
BaBaBooey isn't that good of a singer.
