This was one of Hall & Oates’s first singles when they were still at Atlantic Records. Released in 1973, it only climbed to #60. The success of “Sara Smile” encouraged the Powers That Be at RCA Records to give this another shot in 1976. The second time around, it reached #7 in both the US and Canada and #6 on the US Adult Contemporary chart. The sound on this is straight out of Philly.
Very good song as was most of their stuff in that time.

Great song. Of course I changed the “She” to “He.”

Sometimes you see a name and immediately you can remember the whole song without even listening to it. I like songs like that.

I didn’t know this song at first until the refrain. They had a lot more hits than I thought they did.
