They say he's a perfectionist and maybe that's the reason he's stood the test of time. Do you want that gif smaller than mine (long vid) or just as big as mine and just as long?

MetalVomit 05-14-2006, 10:18 PM i consider them soul. Soul is the same as R&B, to me anyway, D'Angelo and Mary J. Blige are in the same boat as Prince, Marvin Gaye and whatnot, just from a different generation. Beautiful music.

While much of the duo's reputation is due to its sustained pop-chart run in the 1980s, Hall & Oates are also respected for their ability to cross style boundaries. To this day, "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" is the source of samples for songs by R&B and hip-hop, being referenced by acts from Heavy D & the Boyz to Tamia to 2 Live Crew. De La Soul sampled "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" for the track "Say No Go", from their 1988 debut album Three Feet High and Rising, the title of which is one of Hall's vocal hooks from the hit song. Hall & Oates liked it so much that they replicated the De La Soul arrangement in their live 1990 performance at the U.S. Earth Day twentieth anniversary concert in New York's Central Park. "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" is also heavily sampled in the 2003 hit "Sunrise" by the UK act Simply Red. The song also includes original lyrics from "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)" placed at the chorus and sung by a female singer. Rapper Plan B uses the chorus of I Can't Go For That (No Can Do) in his song Mama (Loves A Crackhead). The St. Louis Blues had a line in the early 1990s nickname "Hull and Oates" after forwards Brett Hull and Adam Oates. The song was sampled in a one time collaboration performance by John Mayer and Just Blaze called Alife. Fun Lovin' Criminals sampled a portion of the beat from "One on One" for their song "Sugar", off their 1998 album "100% Colombian". The hook of the song "Method Man", from the Wu-Tang Clan's 1993 album, Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers, copies the refrain of Hall and Oates' "Method of Modern Love" ("The M-E-T-H-O-D...Man"). Kanye West sampled the song "Grounds for Separation" twice -- once for Rhymefest for his song "Fight with the Best" and once for Jagged Edge for the remix of their song "Let's Get Married". (West did not appear on the Jagged Edge remix.) The Private Eyes title track, with its catchy hand-clap chorus, was the topic of a 2003 episode of the VH1 show I Love the 80's, with several artists remembering the single and the duo fondly. Another track from the album, the arena-rocker "Head Above Water", has been used in TV advertisements for the New York Aquarium on Coney Island. In 2004, a dance act called Uniting Nations sampled Hall and Oates hit "Out of Touch". The song, also called "Out of Touch", achieved success across Europe and had a long UK chart run which spanned over several months. The song has also been remixed to less popularity by the smaller dance acts Playaz and Up Top. In 2005 G-Unit hip-hop artist Tony Yayo sampled Hall and Oates on the song "Tattle Teller". Rap group Young Gunz of Roca-fella Records sampled "Rich Girl" for a song of the same name on their debut album. The duo appeared in an episode of NBC's Will & Grace ("The Definition of Marriage") initially aired on February 9, 2006. In 2002, their hit song "Out of Touch" was used for the soundtrack in the successful video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, playing on the pop radio station Flash FM. In 2006, their song "Family Man" was used for the soundtrack for its prequel, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, once again playing on Flash FM. The song "Rich Girl" was played in an episode of television's cop series Hunter. In the episode a 'rich girl' commits the 'perfect crime' but in the end cannot profit from it because all her family money will only be hers when the 'killer' is apprehended. With no options left, she commits suicide eating yogurt and sleeping pills with the song "Rich Girl" playing. "Rich Girl" was also in an episode of the FX series, "The Shield", sung briefly by one of the characters in Season 2. According to Daryl Hall, "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" helped inspire the song "Billie Jean". "Michael Jackson once said directly to me that he hoped I didn't mind that he copied that groove (from "I Can't Go For That"). That's okay; it's something we all do. Eddie Van Halen told me that he copied the synth part from "Kiss on My List" and used it in "Jump". I don't have a problem with that at all."[4] Vocals from Hall & Oates classic single "You Make My Dreams" are sampled on R&B singer Amerie's song "Take Control". Wyclef Jean sings part of "Maneater" in the song "Dangerous" by the Ying Yang Twins. During the chorus, Jean sings, "Oooh here she comes. Watch out boys, she'll chew you up!" Super producers Cool and Dre replayed chords sampled from Hall & Oates "Out of Touch" for Young Jeezy's 2006–2007 hit "Streets on Lock." The Red Hot Chili Peppers refer to Hall and Oats in their song "Nevermind" from the album "Freaky Styley". American Pop Rock band Mêlée included a cover version of "You Make My Dreams" on their album Devils & Angels. Hall and Oates are featured in British spoof TV programmes "Brass Eye", where Lord Sebastian Coe is duped into branding them as a paedophile that keeps changing his appearance. British singer / songwriter / guitarist Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues includes his version of Hall and Oates' first ever single, the Whole Oats single "I'm Sorry", on his 1980 solo album Night Flight. The 1999 romantic comedy Runaway Bride features H&O's number one single "Maneater" in a short scenic montage. The song is a reference to Julia Roberts's titular character, who has left three former fiances at the altar and is just days away from a fourth wedding attempt, which Richard Gere's character, who has already labeled her a "Man Eater" in print, has arrived in town to cover the next close-but-no-cigar event that he expects to happen. "You Make My Dreams" was played over a similar montage sequence in the 1998 romantic comedy The Wedding Singer. The montage featured Adam Sandler assisting Drew Barrymore in various stages of her wedding plans. Most recently "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" was used to great comedic effect in British cult comedy The Mighty Boosh, in which the character of Bob Fossil dances to it, in episode 3x03. The cult hit internet comedy show Yacht Rock has Hall and Oats as major plot points in the first 2 episodes. In a 2003 interview, Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie listed his favorite Hall & Oates songs for the Internet indie publication Pitchforkmedia.com.[5] Brandon Flowers of the Killers stated that he felt "Rich Girl" to be one of the most instructive pop singles ever written.[6] On a 2007 episode of WWE Raw, John "Bradshaw" Layfield and Michael Cole dressed up as Hall & Oates, and sang versions of "Private Eyes" and "Rich Girl". June 21, 2008 - John Oates appeared live with the Sam Bush Band at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival and performed "Man Eater". "Rich Girl" is a singable song on the game Karaoke Revolution Volume 2.
