WOW! John is EXTREMELY underrated as a soloist AND can sing!

There's no denying Daryl Hall is an amazing singer, so it's not hard to understand why he was out front. But I love not only getting to hear John Oates sing (he has a great voice!), but also to hear him share his role in creating such great songs. His contributions to their music tend to get overlooked, so go John Oates!

Makes sense....since they always considered their duo to be a soul duo.

John was 70 years old in this clip. Hope I look this good at that age. Great performance!

I saw Hall & Oates in college late '70s. Great great concert GE Smith was on lead guitar but what I was impressed by was John Oates rhythm guitar work. After all these years that concert still stands out as one of the best I went to

Beautiful, love hearing more from John - so talented and soulful.

Many people don't realize how big of a quiet genius John Oates was and still is. The synergy that was created between he and Daryl Hall was what drew me to them 50 years ago.

John wrote, or co-wrote, their biggest hits. The two biggest, Maneater and Out of Touch, were John's compositions. Certainly, Daryl, Sara, Janna, and other collaborated, but those songs began with John's ideas.

@imagydmusic1129 Sara Smile was their first big hit. She's Gone was covered by Tavares and hit #1 for them. She's Gone was re-released by Atlantic after Sara Smile hit the top 10. John also wrote Do It For Love, the last #1 (AC chart) written by either singer. The point is, for Daryl to claim that he did most of the work after 1975 is preposterous.. if it weren't for Johm's writing talent, where would he be?

@K.F.C KERNEL it’s repeated on his other videos, so it’s probably fake. I saw a comment with 2 replies, both being John Oates, yet they were different accounts. Seems kinda shady...

little did he know that that song would travel from new york small apartment to my school gymnasium way out west lunchtime dance and be the biggest song of the time,,,80s forever,,,

I’ve come to believe that they really were the John and Paul of the 80s. Or maybe Paul and Art, not quite sure. But they were really up there, Damnit! Philly soul!

John seems like just a chill dude and such an underrated vocalist, love that he gets high too lol. Really like this slower soulful take on the song

This acoustic version of this great song is fantastic! ❤

Great version!

Anyone who says he doesn't have range doesn't know music. .. beautiful version, thanks

John Oats is a very talented guy, and I'm honored to have heard him and Daryl, in conert, several years ago, as I was given a back-stage pass, by him (or his mother-in-law)? I keep his autograph, in the top drawer of my desk! The concert was held at the Star Plaza Theatre, in Indiana. I forget the year? Thanks for sharing this amazing video. Peace, Brother Charles Pratt ...oh, JOhn's mother-in-law (Sharon Pommier) was a former nurse of ours, here, at Good Shepherd Mannor, in Momence, Illinois!

Holy shit, that voice!

Bravo Maestro Thats how you created this song Amazing John now i can tell you love the original The one at the studio after Trillions of aragments it gave you guys platinum hits...Thank you John please keep doing it there is not much time in our lives that share our best moments Thanks Man

He sings tremendously whoaw John you got it so well

This is my favorite version of this song, John's voice is so soulful I cannot get enough!

That was beautiful 💐 Thanks 🙌 I borrowed your song in many of my teenage relationships in the 80's and in my adult life now a days 🙏

LOVE YOU JOHN OATES!

I saw Hall and Oates in 1978. To me, John Oates was very good at keeping everyone wanting more. For example, his vocal parts were "just enough," to make you want to hear more. He was he same way with how he moved around on stage. He kept you waiting for his next move. He never overdid anything. He's probably a great chef!

awwweeeeeeeeesssssssoooooooommmmmmmeeeee great john oates i miss dyrall hall

This is just great

Awesome! What a treat! So talented man. Thank you fir sharing this!!
