I grew up in the 1970’s. Songs were magical , and there was an innocence and excitement for the future. I feel so sad for the kids in these present times and generations who will never experience that pure joy
I can hardly listen to this without crying for my sister who died far too young at 37 . We both loved Daryl Hall and Oates and sat at the front row in all of their concerts so .. this song means a lot to me.
Music can release any and all emotions in us. I LOVE music. I also hate it. This might be my favorite song of theirs, but I get weird listening to it. The words are almost verbatim what I think about my son's passing. So sorry about your sister.... I'm going to stay hopeful that one day me and you can listen to this song without tears of sadness...just smiles.
It's undoubtedly a good one. I also like, 'Well, I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer...the future's uncertain and the end is always near" - Jim Morrison Granted, a different 'vibe'.
I was 16 in 1976. What a magical time. The music coming out of the radio was a great soundtrack to be young to. Didn’t realize how lucky I was to live in such an innocent time when the future looked so bright.
I saw them in a small club in Atlanta in 1976 called Alex Cooley’s Electric Ballroom. It was a Wednesday night, $5.00 in enter and penny beers. One night I will never forget!
Nov 2023 , I'm still listening to the music from the 60s 70s and 80s... Music that will always be heard... Especially in grocery store aisles as you shop!! Aging those who are still signing them....
I assume everybody watching the video was familiar with the song, so what didn't they like - the arrangement, the performance, the camera work?? Unless they had their heart set on watching H&O lip sync to the album track I don't know what is the problem. Great work by all involved.
My folks grew up listening to Daryl Hall and John Oates. Then once I came around, they played their music throughout the day and I became hooked. Thanks mom and dad! 👍🏼
OMG look how young they are....Daryl Hall, bless him is in his 70's..as we are...still singing this in 2023 - in his show LIVE FROM DARYL'S HOUSE. 'everybody's high on consolation'...what a great, aching lyric...
In 1978 I left a small town in Montana, and went to San Francisco, and started nursing school. Talk about culture Shock!! This song was very popular. Great memories, We had a BLAST!!
These were days when the music wasnt only about the "lead singer". We had bands. The music had heart and soul, and brought amazing energy. Love of the times.
For roughly a decade between the late 70's and the mid 80's, no one and I mean no one could hold a candle to these guys, easily one of the best duo's of all time
John is the primary songwriter for this song. Daryl said that, he gives John credit as the songwriter for "Shes Gone" and many other of their hit songs.
Mesmo eu não sendo dessa época que a minha mãe viveu, eu adoro e curto desses tipos de música. Não ligo pro que os outros falam que músicas como essa são coisas de velho. Gosto musical não tem idade
I. AM AND ALWAYS WILL!! My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE Hall and Oates song. Darryl's voice is so...mmm...perfect....wonderful...just...mmmm...yeah, it's like that. So so so good!! And the lyrics! And the harmony! and the instrumentation! The arrangement! It's just wonderful! And, if you look up this song "live at Daryl's House" with Rob Thomas (on youtube), it's 99.9% as good as the original.
I was born on the day this song was released and my parents told me I danced out of the womb and laughed and moved to this song my whole first year of being on this Earth. Years later I am now a Dancer and Singer.
This takes me back to a time I didn't have a care in the world. Just wanted to ride my bike, play baseball, hang out with my friends and listen to the radio.
Me and many other kids from my neighborhood spent so much time outdoors. My group of friends (we didn't all know eachother real well, but it didn't matter....we needed more kids to play certain sports, unlike tennis or hitting golfballs on an open field) got together to play baseball during summer break. I played several outdoor sports even when summer break was over. Almost everyone needed bikes since it was normal to for kids to ride bikes everywhere. Staying inside the house during the summer break was not even thought of an option if it wasn't raining! Me and my closest friend always figured out plenty of different things to do....all accomplished without spending hardly any money despite all the hours of enjoyment each week.
I was 16yrs old.. and whilst the average teen girl was madly in love with the phone.. my heart belonged to the radio!! Now I'm 63.. and still in love!.. music is life. Thanks Hall & Oats ❤❤
I was seven years old when this song was released, my father, grandfather and two uncles were playing this while sipping on beer, I was the only one who thought that this was a black group and I said it loud to them, they all laughed and said "no, everyone has soul music within them, and regardless of color always keep an open mind." To date, hall and oates are one of my favorite groups of all time, rest in peace Willie, James, Dale and Adrian (my father, grandfather and two uncles).
It ranks at the top of my list. I'm 61. This song came in the 70s. SHE'S GONE. So is this era if music. But I'm hearing it today. I listen. I t takes me back and i love this song and the time in my life I'll always remember. Wish i could go back
Back when music didn't need anything but talented musicians and great songs by equally great writers. No computer gimmicks, fake stuff or anything else. Just timeless music that will far outlast anything today.
Incredible still . I was blessed to grow up in the 70 's and 80's . They used to write and perform actual music back then . It had actual meaning. When you were done listening it touched your soul . It helped you hang on . There was no sampling . There was no aggrandizement of thuggery and violence. Truly a shame what music had become. No heart . It's empty . Just because you can hit 15 notes doesn't make it great . They still play our music , and will for decades. Love to my brothers and sisters.
Ya know, I also grew up in the 70's and 80's. My all-time favorite bands are Rush, Styx, and 38 Special. That does not mean I agree with your assessment of today's music. If you actually listen, I mean really listen to a lot of the music you feel is glorifying "thuggery", I think you'll discover that a whole lot of it is warning the listener to avoid that life at all costs. I also believe that every era has some incredible artists. From Prince, Kanye West (as much as I hate that guy I cannot deny that he is a musical genius) to the Foo Fighters and Ed Sheeran. If you don't realize that music still evolves just like it did back in our day and always will, then man, you haven't really opened up your soul and you're missing out.
@@msexton1968 Okay the "thuggery" rap litterly goes into the heart and soul, what you consume it was you bring into the heart and soul. The singer doesn't warn the listener to avoid that. That's why kids think it's cool that their pants are halfway down their but and act all tough and hard. This singing of "thuggery" is crap culture okay. There's people who turned stupid. This music is 100x better than the "thuggery." Don't try to counter or I slip then hit you back with my counter, and the punch ain't going to be a good one.
I was 10 in 76 and what a great time to be a kid! No cel phones, computers. Just playing football / baseball in the neighborhood until dad hollered at dark to come home for dinner!
My 33 year old daughter loved Hall and Oates and when she passed away on February 10, 2014, this is the first song we played as we gathered around her.
Happy 73rd Birthday John William Oates April 7, 1948. NYC born.. He recorded his first single at the tender age of 18. Co captain of the wrestling team in high school. Wrestled in college too. Not a typical musicians life story. Many more John William..
I grew up in zip 19454. Use to see Daryl and John at the Main Point in Bryn Mawr in the early 70's You're right...Not Typical and after all this time....They still are really special!

@@duelingmurphys7868 I went to Lehigh. Saw them several times . And I went on to have a long career as being a flight attendant for 2 majors. Who knew???
One of the best songs ever written about a lost love and the beauty and purity of the music and their voices is just magic. Sorry folks but these are the facts
This song is the most pure proof of the skill of these two artists that I can't stop listening to after more than 30 years . The combination of both voices is just pure perfection. I love John's voice particularly in this song. One of my favourite Hall and Oates tracks
My dentist knows I love oldies. He asked me once, “What is your favorite hall and Oates song?” W/0 skipping a beat I said,”man eater because I am one!” Who would dream they would tour shortly after that? Went to see them, they sang everything.
Miss my Girl, she's 22. I send her this song constantly. I miss the Shit out of her. It sucks. She grew up to fast. Love this song! Thanks for your gift of lyrics and music.🥰
As a musician I love playing Hall and Oates songs. Beautiful melodies and chords. The modulation at the end is like a mountain of whip cream. Watch the drummer grab his symbols for the hard stop. Timeless
so lucky to be given a true talent...music...in any way....keep going....never stop......im eccletic....if i like i like....all music end of day.......u take care and keep going......never stop
His voice was amazing...I wish they had stopped before the 80s though! "Private Eyes" and "Your Kiss is on my List" ruined it for me. But "She's Gone" and "Sarah Smile" make it all good
Yes, before the small hats brought us vulgar rap. They also brought hardcore porn on every child's cellphone, legal and encouraged in Palestine and in the U.S. and illegal of course in Israel.
Il soul bianco, vite separate diversi, uno alto biondo, l'altro più basso moro con baffi da italiano, sue origini, voci straordinarie e ancora dopo 50 anni bravissimi, a me piacciono ancora, bravi, grazie!
I was 10 years old at the time this video was made. I enjoy their voices together, and separate. They are timeless, I agree, & I don’t understand why in the world would someone give this a thumbs down.
A true classic that remains timeless. All you have to do is hear the first few bars of music 🎶 and then Daryl and John start making their magic. Forever young! 😎 💘
What can I say about this song?! I was in the Marine Corps when this song was on the radio....and I was captivated. It was the days of disco, but these guys were different! In the late 70's and early 80's, these guys had the Maidas Touch. EVERYTHING they touched turned to GOLD! Can't forget it!
My 4yr old son in 2007, in his car seat, would belt this song out while I drove. I left it on repeat as he did not want to hear anything else while he was in the car. He's 15 now and I just had him listen to it. Man I just got a 💋 and a hug. Thank you Hall & Oates.
This takes me back to my early teens, when the world was a far better place to be. What a brillant song performed by great musicians! This song will never get old, unlike me 🤫😉😎
im listening, and they were great. im a fan and they did some great songs..love this stuff. appart from the memories, these songs have real talent in the making. what lets them down is the reproduction between those days and now, but there is nothing we can do about that!!
Yes, this is true talent...but dont be deluded into believing that true talent died sometime back in the 70's. Im 50 and know of lots of talented "musicians" lol there are tons. Hint-you have to look somewhere other than the radio to find them😉
@@headleygrange6205 i know it didnt die, but it seems the record companies dont care anymore. Its about hype and looks, not talent. So, yes, we have to look other places now vut in the mean time, we get blasted with the bullsh-t thats in the mainstream.
😟They will no longer perform together l learned this week! I understand, so many decades, relationships change. They have not collaborated well for a long time. Still, thank you both for your wonderful work and the masterful catalog you gave us!!❤

Whos listening to these great songs May 24 2024. Texarkana.
My god, to grow up as a child in the 70s I'm not sure any of us knew how good we had it. The music was just STELLAR.
Grew up in the 70s and have memories hearing this song on AM radio in my Dad's 73 Pontiac.
I Agree
MN, what memories. Could go on beach at night and not be scared to death. Sleep with windows up. Man, kids just don't know, do they?
Just excitedly, dumbly, blindly believing that rock n roll was just going to continue to get better and better... fools we were, fools we remain...
Amen 🙏
Still love this song so much and have to sing along today in 2024. I miss the day of good music.
Im 74 and love this!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Still holds up today. Their voices are so awesome, pure talent. No crappy background show to distract you. Pure musicianship. Love these guys.
Hello Denise how are you doing
@@GeorgeCampbell-sz1wu I'm well, how are yo doing today?
Wasn't the 70s great? Best decade of music ever.
compare this to.......beyonce!!......LOL
Yep
The people that gave this a thumbs down are in denial and they think she's coming back.
LOL, thanks!!
Good one!

Very funny.
I remember when I had my first beer. 😀
BAD ASS SONG
Maximus Meridius must have been in the 90s when that ill quip was funny
So young here 😍 love them still 2023
I grew up in the 1970’s. Songs were magical , and there was an innocence and excitement for the future. I feel so sad for the kids in these present times and generations who will never experience that pure joy
I can say that there sure was a "magic" going on for sure. Greatest time of my life growing up in the 1970's and 80's.
I can hardly listen to this without crying for my sister who died far too young at 37 . We both loved Daryl Hall and Oates and sat at the front row in all of their concerts so .. this song means a lot to me.

I'm sorry for your loss 💛
You will always have this with...your Sis.
It was my older sister who turned me on to Hall and oats
Who still needs a drink and a quick decision in 2024???????
With you? Yes. 😊
Joe Biden
That's who
Stupid Question
Of course there’s room for Stupidity Everywhere
Who gave this Stupid comment 13 thumbs up?
I wish music was still like this. Proper singers, proper musicians, proper songwriters. Timeless
Real music I’am glad I was there to experience it. Still love it today
"I need a drink and a quick decision.."
One of the best lines ever put in a song.
She's gone by Hall & Oates
It's undoubtedly a good one.
I also like, 'Well, I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer...the future's uncertain and the end is always near" - Jim Morrison
Granted, a different 'vibe'.
That is the line that will always live in my head
@@waynej2608 ¡¡SPOT ON!! Both lines are great!
So VERY true.
My very favorite performance by them.
Who’s still cranking up this song in 2021? Still great after all these years!
Yip! Ken, this makes the world go round!
I'm listening. I was around when it came out.
Me, me, me
Great music
Yeah… fresh as ever
I was 16 in 1976. What a magical time. The music coming out of the radio was a great soundtrack to be young to. Didn’t realize how lucky I was to live in such an innocent time when the future looked so bright.

@@frankgroover9844 Damn... Reminds me how my mom saw The Doors play at an outdoor festival in San Bernardino, CA
I sure missed out.😢
No kidding. I was 13 then. Sigh.
It’s funny how the future looked so bright, until the 90’s now the future looks dark and depressing.
@@rolandledesma-de7qd sounds like the opening for a good essay. Very true.
Boy this live performance sounds damn good. Hall and Oates don't have any bad songs.
I totally agree! :)
Italian Girls was pretty bad.
@@lupelicious822I'm totally going to search that right now. 😂
They have a concert from some theatre in Ireland that aired on American PBS a few years ago that's well worth watching if you can find it.
I hope I can find that
Nov 2023 , I'm still listening to the music from the 60s 70s and 80s...
Music that will always be heard...
Especially in grocery store aisles as you shop!!
Aging those who are still signing them....
The fact that 3 thousand people chose to dislike this great song is worrying for humanity.
Just another reminder that the world is full of assholes
because they like justin beaver.
Just shows us how many are so ungrateful in their lives. Oh well.
I assume everybody watching the video was familiar with the song, so what didn't they like - the arrangement, the performance, the camera work?? Unless they had their heart set on watching H&O lip sync to the album track I don't know what is the problem. Great work by all involved.
Seriously, hard to believe
My folks grew up listening to Daryl Hall and John Oates. Then once I came around, they played their music throughout the day and I became hooked. Thanks mom and dad! 👍🏼
Good parenting! :)
@@keanapalooza6690 Thanks!
@@alyssajones4368hi
Beach Boys and CCR too ♥
@@skorpiogrl Yep!
Been hearing H&O on the radio all my life, and it's only now that I'm starting to appreciate how amazing and talented these guys really were.
This makes you realize what a great voice John Oates has
He has so much nuance in his voice. Absolutely incredible track from him here.
amen.. i never realized how much so until now
...REALLY.....AND I REALLY DON´T KNOW WHY HE DOESN´T SING ANY MORE IN CONCERT......
I noticed that too,
Their vocal interplay here adds a nice touch.
OMG look how young they are....Daryl Hall, bless him is in his 70's..as we are...still singing this in 2023 - in his show LIVE FROM DARYL'S HOUSE. 'everybody's high on consolation'...what a great, aching lyric...
Wouldn't it be great to be young like that again but to know what we know now?
Just saw a show announced near me. Daryl Hall, Todd Rundgren (whom I saw last year) and Daryl's House Band.
Oh hell yes!
Love live at Daryls house!
In 1978 I left a small town in Montana, and went to San Francisco, and started nursing school. Talk about culture Shock!! This song was very popular. Great memories, We had a BLAST!!
San Fran in the 1970's, just Wow!! I hope you stuck to your "small town" ways.
Best times and music growing up in the 70's! I was 16 yrs old when this great song came out. Hall and Oates were a great duo!
These were days when the music wasnt only about the "lead singer". We had bands. The music had heart and soul, and brought amazing energy. Love of the times.
Thank you Dawn. Thank you. No words. Just tears.
In Christ's name Amen ✝️✝️✝️ 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
You got that right!!!!
😚😚😚
Its August 2021, and am still loving this, (she's gone!What went wrong?💚
Whos still cranking up Hall & Oates in 2020 ? She's Gone
Me too in Arizona 6/5/20
Omg I love this tune so much brings back so many memories I'm caught in a time bubble now but loving every minute and every lyric
I have a Hall & Oates 2020 magnet on my car!
I sure am, saw them for the 5th time last years xxx
Anyone who grew up in the 70's and 80's most definitely should! This is a total classic.
This is still my favorite song 53 years later. I never get bored listening to this music. This song is legendary and won't be forgotten
Still a favorite of mine. Man, I did a lot of walking then. Should have stuck around with one of them.
I was 12 years old . The 70’s were hands down the best decade music for me till this day
If you ever fell in love this song will bring tears to your eyes
AMEN
Still Listening In 2023 KENTUCKY
still listening 2024 melbourne australia
Still listening in 2024 Alabama
Me too in 2024 in Texas❤
I was in high school when this came out still one of my favorites.
John Oates has an incredible voice!!!
AMAZING VOICE
And he wrote this song.
For roughly a decade between the late 70's and the mid 80's, no one and I mean no one could hold a candle to these guys, easily one of the best duo's of all time
In terms of number of albums sold, they are the best musical duo of all time (according to Rolling Stone magazine).
Daryl gets most of the attention on their songs, but John did a great job here. He's got a great singing voice.
Yes indeed. He could hold his own.
That's because John was a backup singer and he knew it. But he always said that he was a great backup singer.
Yes he does
John is the primary songwriter for this song. Daryl said that, he gives John credit as the songwriter for "Shes Gone" and many other of their hit songs.
John's harmonizing both vocally and on guitar are certainly overlooked by many
Mesmo eu não sendo dessa época que a minha mãe viveu, eu adoro e curto desses tipos de música. Não ligo pro que os outros falam que músicas como essa são coisas de velho. Gosto musical não tem idade
Classic song. The multitude of instruments is nothing but spectacular. One of the greatest songs of all time.
Hall & Oates made some of the best music ever!!! I love these two brothers!!! Music like this is not around anymore!!!
This live version is just so damn flawless. Never get tired of hearing it.
favorite one on youtube jimmy! keep it rockin..how it really was
I hear you
The studio version is ethereal but this one hits me more emotionally.
you said it there
Oh yeah, fantastic version!
Fabulous duo best of the best. Still digging them at 68
Whos still cranking up Hall & Oates in 2021 ? She's Gone!

Meeeee
Good song to send an ex love this song

We did, didn’t we…..?
And into 2023! What beautiful voices in this heartfelt song ... Both guys are perfect in tthis songd
Any better time ?.. no.
There will never be music like this again, priceless.
And they make it look so easy.

You are pretty right on what music has become. Few people listen to this now, but this is what real music is and lets enjoy it you know.
No vocoder, no autotune, no overdubs, just pure vocal talent!
No ableton, no Logic, no Cubase. Only real voices and talent.
No people recording it with their phone, just people enjoying being there in the moment.
beautifull
And real musicians that understand their role and kill it !
they dont make recording like this anymore, much less live!
Darryl has such an incredible voice. So good live.
I was 10 in 76 and what a great time to be a kid! No cel phones, computers. Just playing football / baseball in the neighborhood until dad hollered at dark to come home for dinner!

I grew up in zip 19454. Use to see Daryl and John at the Main Point in Bryn Mawr in the early 70's You're right...Not Typical and after all this time....They still are really special!
Thanks for the info, nice stuff to know!

@@Johnoatesmusic.__ Hi!!!!! Nice to meet you on here as well!!!!
I grew up on this music and it sounds better today than it did in the 80's. Thank you Daryl Hall and John Oates for the great music❤
One of the bands that helped me survive disco!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahahahaha that's a good one bro!
Almost 50 years later, and these guys still sound fresh as hell!
The best! Old people get it!
Well, this was probably at the very least 25 years ago
it says 1976 in the title, so probably 45 yrs ago.....
24 years old and I get it, I was raised on Hall & Oates, among other music 🎶 childhood favorite ♥️
How do you get Alexa to stop
One of the best songs ever written about a lost love and the beauty and purity of the music and their voices is just magic. Sorry folks but these are the facts
15 years old in '76 - lovin' life and the awesome music surrounding me since day 1! I feel so bad for kids from about 2014+ - music business is dead.
This song is the most pure proof of the skill of these two artists that I can't stop listening to after more than 30 years . The combination of both voices is just pure perfection. I love John's voice particularly in this song. One of my favourite Hall and Oates tracks
He john looks very young on this.
Marnie I agree. Check out this song. John's voice is amazing..czcams.com/video/gBZi8SvoQlc/video.html
Yes yes
My dentist knows I love oldies. He asked me once, “What is your favorite hall and Oates song?” W/0 skipping a beat I said,”man eater because I am one!” Who would dream they would tour shortly after that? Went to see them, they sang everything.
They announced at concert, “best selling pop duo of all time”
Still listening in 2020..
M2
Amen
So am I. Basically because this is what's happening in my life right now. Only it's him that's gone.
🙋👍💃💃💃💃
Dexter Scott hell yes, NEVER gets old!
Miss my Girl, she's 22. I send her this song constantly. I miss the Shit out of her. It sucks. She grew up to fast. Love this song! Thanks for your gift of lyrics and music.🥰
This song will forever stand the test of time.
Whos still cranking up Hall & Oates in 2019 ?
Going to see them in July ...Can't wait
me here!
@@jakesleg63 Where?
@@3mrcapricorn Here in Ireland....Cork..in July
anyone with good taste.
As a musician I love playing Hall and Oates songs. Beautiful melodies and chords. The modulation at the end is like a mountain of whip cream. Watch the drummer grab his symbols for the hard stop.
Timeless
I like the way you describe things wish I could hear you play
My brother is a drummer has played most of my life and I'm a bit of a singer
so lucky to be given a true talent...music...in any way....keep going....never stop......im eccletic....if i like i like....all music end of day.......u take care and keep going......never stop

These are in harmony soul brother number two great song
Growing up in the 70's we were blessed with great music and still enjoy listening to Daryl and John are one of the best.
Still listening to Hall and Oates 2020 Daryl Hall one of the best male singers ever
Still bad ass in 2020🎼.
His voice was amazing...I wish they had stopped before the 80s though! "Private Eyes" and "Your Kiss is on my List" ruined it for me. But "She's Gone" and "Sarah Smile" make it all good
Legend 😀
Daryl was in his prime here. Great vocals, great lyrics, great band.
Yes
Man, this totally brings me back to when the world was a better place.......
Anyone listening tonight
I totally agree.
Yes, before the small hats brought us vulgar rap. They also brought hardcore porn on every child's cellphone, legal and encouraged in Palestine and in the U.S. and illegal of course in Israel.
George Waters shaking your hand
So true
This song makes me cry it’s so emotional
Yup Deb it remind's me of my mom.
born in 49 and this tune will still knock your socks off
" Pretty bodies help dissolve the memories but they can never be what she was to me." So very true!!!
Hello there,how are you doing today?
Never get tired of this song. Brings memories.
me too Patricia....lots of memories...
Il soul bianco, vite separate diversi, uno alto biondo, l'altro più basso moro con baffi da italiano, sue origini, voci straordinarie e ancora dopo 50 anni bravissimi, a me piacciono ancora, bravi, grazie!
I was 10 years old at the time this video was made. I enjoy their voices together, and separate. They are timeless, I agree, & I don’t understand why in the world would someone give this a thumbs down.
A true classic that remains timeless. All you have to do is hear the first few bars of music 🎶 and then Daryl and John start making their magic. Forever young! 😎 💘
Hello dear,how are you doing,how is the weather over there?
Still listening in March 2021
This song resonates deeply 4 a man who truly misses the love of his life. Shes gone forever. Adios.
Me too lost my husband too early, songs from my past make me cry, smile and think I blessed I was
How can people not love Oates & Hall?!! They are classic!!
What can I say about this song?! I was in the Marine Corps when this song was on the radio....and I was captivated. It was the days of disco, but these guys were different! In the late 70's and early 80's, these guys had the Maidas Touch. EVERYTHING they touched turned to GOLD! Can't forget it!
My 4yr old son in 2007, in his car seat, would belt this song out while I drove. I left it on repeat as he did not want to hear anything else while he was in the car.
He's 15 now and I just had him listen to it. Man I just got a 💋 and a hug. Thank you Hall & Oates.
Hello ,how are you doing,how is the weather over there?
The way Daryl "introduced" the song!!! His "pride" is delicious!!
What a smoking band. This is live music kids. Loved Daryl and John since the 70's!!!
I have a huge smile on my face listening and watching them perform. Such a great song . I love them still after all these years ❤
This takes me back to my early teens, when the world was a far better place to be. What a brillant song performed by great musicians! This song will never get old, unlike me 🤫😉😎
Cause we were young and didn't know
I was born May 17,1976. Even though I was just a babe, I think I love every song of that year.
This song still holds up today .. Great voice .Great band...
Any other Hall and Oates fans out there besides me, listening to this legendary group in 2021?
4 hours behind you! This is great stuff! There's a recent, wonderful cover of this from 'Live at Daryl's House' with Rob Thomas and Daryl Hall!
desde sus inicios,siempre fabulosos
Arcadio saberon Drummer Eddie Zyne just passed he has joined that heavenly rock band in the sky🙏🥁🧡
Arcadio saberon Me!
im listening, and they were great. im a fan and they did some great songs..love this stuff. appart from the memories, these songs have real talent in the making. what lets them down is the reproduction between those days and now, but there is nothing we can do about that!!
True musical talent.
Can you imagine today’s “musicians” trying something like this live?
Yes, this is true talent...but dont be deluded into believing that true talent died sometime back in the 70's. Im 50 and know of lots of talented "musicians" lol there are tons. Hint-you have to look somewhere other than the radio to find them😉
I just said this same thing to my husband. Listen to this talent...singing & musicianship...❤❤❤❤
@@kellyk.3855 So true. These guys had no auto tune. Pretty damned sure Bieber or Katie Perry aren’t capable of the same, live or studio.
@@headleygrange6205 i know it didnt die, but it seems the record companies dont care anymore. Its about hype and looks, not talent. So, yes, we have to look other places now vut in the mean time, we get blasted with the bullsh-t thats in the mainstream.
Still great bands out there, still making great music. It's just not on the top 40 charts.
😟They will no longer perform together l learned this week! I understand, so many decades, relationships change. They have not collaborated well for a long time. Still, thank you both for your wonderful work and the masterful catalog you gave us!!❤
50 years on ..this song still resonates of past relationships....timeless classic!
Reminds me of a woman, I can't say that to the new one.
Oats never gets the recognition for being an incredibly phenomenal singer (reminds me of Ocasek and Orr of The Cars).
Point 1:36. Me yow
