Hall & Oates - One On One (Live 1983)

Daryl Hall & John Oates Rock n Soul Live at the Montreal Forum, 1983

[@phoomchanokofficial]

John oates guitar tone is so clean it kills almost 99% germs.

[@fcoprado929]

Dont even compare this to today's music. Timeless.

[@kymelieleonard6490]

💯 it dont

[@silviaamorim4044]

This is classic , today’s trash !

[@xxkasperxx]

One of the greatest soul singers of all time right here

[@stonerobinson4864]

Wow Darryl sounds perfect live

[@patoconnor8569]

The drummer is G.E. Smith who rose to fame with Hall and Oates playing lead guitar and writing guitar solos on songs like Kiss On My List and Wait for Me before he became the musical director on Saturday Night Live for several years. He is only playing drums on this one song for the concert, he played lead guitar for the rest of the concert. The regular drummer (Mickey Curry at the time) moved back on the electronic drums for this song and G.E. too over on Mickey's drum set.

[@anybodysguess960]

Thank you I came here to ask if it was him. I got my answer. Wow he is a multi talented musician

[@andrescespedes1079]

Además fue bajista de Dan Hartman...es un excelente músico

[@Gemmarose9012]

What a voice he had...such a sexy song.

[@alysonsomerville3654]

What a voice he still has...

[@Gemmarose9012]

@@alysonsomerville3654 No. I saw them in concert a few years ago and he didn’t have anywhere near the same range he once had. He practically talked through some of the songs. It’s to be expect at his age and with his health issues. He will always be one of my favorite musicians!

[@mckenziecolclough8547]

​@@Gemmarose9012Maybe he's improved now, yeah he doesn't sound the same, but he doesn't sound horrible either.

[@monroeboy80]

That voice! The falsetto, John Oates' harmonies, and the sax 🎷. This live recording actually sounds better than the record!

[@anthonytaylor7928]

Because it's supposed to duh?? It's an insult to a true artist to compare a live performance with a record two different things

[@slendus8363]

@@anthonytaylor7928 yea but there are many artists that can't sing as well live, and they depend on the studio to enhance their voice

[@andysmith6824]

I am so lucky, as are my cohorts, to have gone through high school in the 80s. Class of 1984 here, and man did we have great stuff. Hall & Oates, everyone in my two thousand student school knew the words to this entire album! We didn’t study our homework, but we sure knew every word to these awesome, timeless songs! What a great time that was to be alive!

[@renj6531]

I didnt live through it but I can semi relive it 84 was a good year Karate kid, The Terminator Gremlins and great music

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

I remember my older brother buying the magazines with the lyrics for the hit songs back then.

[@karenharris722]

It's hard to pick a favorite Hall and Oates song, but this is one of mine! ☺

[@babycatsina]

Those were the days when singers can sing live and make it sound better than recording. When their actual voice really worked, not relying on "RECORDING REPAIRS"

[@kaycee1500]

i was born in 88, but i remember my dad playing this song over and over...this is my fav hall & oates song to this day

[@SteadyEddie1983]

love this song!

[@lorenco425]

same thing here, born in 88, got the vinyl from my dad. H&O were huge here in germany. also, i cannot get over how perfect the backing vocals are live! gives me the chills

[@anthonynavarro6074]

It's too good . No doubt

[@christopheryasus3666]

G bless ya. My memory of my dad in a happy sense was hearing Private Eyes on a subway w him like a million years ago. I'm 45. Happy 2020 to you & yours😉

[@kennethmiller7362]

"you can't tell me you don't miss me girl, I think I know you too well." What a classic!

[@cgreg6474]

Top 5 soul singer of all time ...Mr Daryl Hall

[@smokeyfan]

You must have meant top 5 blue-eyed soul singer...otherwise you would be mistaken

[@mckenziecolclough8547]

​@@smokeyfanWhy are you calling him blue eyed soul? Soul is soul no matter who sings it. He sounds like a black soul singer and if he was black you wouldn't have a problem with him being top 5. But because he's white you want to not give him all the credit, what even is blue eyed soul? There's no brown eyed soul, the person above is not mistaken, Daryl hall is top 5 best soul singers ever. No matter his color, there is no blue eyed soul, just soul.

[@Collosuss70]

this whole concert is a masterpiece, vs the recorded versions of all these songs, the vocal mastery of daryl is unparalleled

[@Rich1964]

Daryl Hall & John Oates, pure talent, living legends….!

[@chrisandersen5635]

Daryl is such a great keyboard player. So funky and hot. I miss that. I respect that he likes to play guitar, but. . . . . . well . . . . .

[@staceychutskoff1232]

Awe! So Beautiful Musicians 1984...

Cheers! 1984

1984!❤

[@rogercruz4693]

Those years where auto tune was not accepted in music industry.. just pure talent.

[@wjenpacific]

One of my favorite songs ever!! So sexy..and some jazzy feel, which 80s was "hot"!!

[@DaniellaAdorno]

I agree with everything, I love this song, which is very pleasant to hear for the lyrics and melody and is very sensual.

[@snidelywhiplash]

Top of their game here. Outstanding. Thanks for posting!

[@kymelieleonard6490]

Can i blushhh bout now❤, he is still.toooo fineee and smooth wit the lyrics

[@mavericktopgun2873]

His vocals are on a diffrent level

[@johneldridge8678]

Absolutely nailed it!!! Incredible!!!

[@NBAx]

I was born in 99, when I was around 4/5 my mom played this song 24/7. This and Sara smile is my two favorite songs by them 💯

[@DjAja]

He sounds exactly the same as the recordings pure class !!!!

[@anthonynavarro6074]

Shine on GE!

[@malinwj1167]

What a rhythm section - GE Smith on drums, Mickey Curry on the Simmons pads playing percussion, and TBone Tom Wolk on bass guitar. I mean, come on! Can't get much better than that

[@SummerLuvr7]

GE Smith on drum? Never saw that before. Great song but their performances 15+ years later are even better! Amazing!

[@micway71]

Great minds think alike. GE a talented sob!

[@LS-ti1rz]

Yeah I was thinking the same, like What the hell?

[@mimmopapi1387]

Questa canzone scoperta da pochissimo è bellissima.

[@Rhonda333]

I used to be in love with Hall

[@LS-ti1rz]

My God he killed this song right here! Man that was sooooo gooooood!!! Artist today come no where even close. Damn Daryl sang da hell outta dis song!!!

[@kittyhello377]

their music was outside of the mold, I liked that. And they always had good hair.

[@DanielHernandez-kw7yo]

Mi canción favorita, la canción mas hermosa y romantica que he escuchado, la voz de daryl es unica, hermosa y maravillosa❤❤❤❤❤

[@ErichH68]

I was 15 when they came out with this song. So GREAT to be coming of age when this AWESOME music came out. This was why you stayed up to watch Friday Night videos or MTV because it was SO WORTH it!!! Is it any wonder we used to say: "Totally Awesome!!!"

[@silviaamorim4044]

Best of the best of 1983 … one on one I wanna play that game tonight , one on one so slow my dearly husband . Covid took you from me but, not the memories …. One on one I wanna play that game , play that game so slowww……

[@maribarco]

Love This Song 💙💙💙💙

[@francismoyer9627]

Blue Eyed Soul!! I have to respect these men along with many others like the four tops and the temptations!! Being a white boy raised on this music is one memory that I will remember forever.

[@mikestevenson576]

Agree all the way but for what it's worth, Daryl says he hates that term. “I f-ing hate it; it’s a racist term,” Hall tells VH1. “It assumes I’m coming from the outside. There’s always been that thing in America, where if you’re a white guy and you’re singing or playing in a black idiom, it’s like: ‘Why is he doing that? Is he from the outside, looking in? Is he copying? What’s the point of it?’ C’mon, it’s music! It’s music.” Tougher thing to say in public today than it was in 2016, I'm thinking.

[@chrissimpson6701]

@Francis, do you look like Daryl? If so, your sexy as hell, just saying.

[@alanabond007]

I don't know how many times I have listened to this over the years. I love the way Daryl sung this and I love the band too. T-bone on bass and what John is doing on guitar... Perfect to me. Love this song. Crushing on Daryl😍

[@MsMissy314]

So amazing 😍😍😍😍😍

[@ghicaccatta]

the guitarist Smith at drums!!!!

[@chrisandersen5635]

Cymbals and rimshots. They showed it pretty clearly towards the end. Great version, and to think I was ready to skip this. I often overestimate their hits, but they are great hits for a reason unlike many bands.

[@perid5815]

Without KZbin, how can we watch old videos like this one. Precious.

sensacional, marcou gerações!!!!!

Very true. Sometimes I will be listening to music from back in the day and inside I'm 19 again. Then I look in the mirror and ... Well...you know.

[@srqtransparency]

I was born two decades too late!

[@africkinamerican]

They have an acoustic drum set and the synth drums. For this song, mickey switches to the synth drums and they put GE on the other set doing the cymbals and rim shots mostly. The synth drums at that time probably couldn't replicate the sound of real cymbals, also it gave GE something to do during this song!

[@josephdimas7330]

Says a lot when u have only 1 dislike, must've been a accident. Great song, music sucks now and has been for awhile.

[@707ladytee]

G.E. plays the drums too! What can't he do 😀

this was the song i was playing when i was driving alone in skyway, christmas december 2019, with roof down just thinkin about my crush at work. lol

This performance is most accurate to studio album version of course it is also live in year when h20 album came out 1983!!

Going to see them in concert in July. I cannot wait!! This song and Out of Touch are my absolute favorites! I can't promise I won't throw my panties at the stage! Lol

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

It's too bad that you weren't able to see them in their prime when Daryl still had his voice.

[@luacristal9427]

O que me encanta nesse cantor era sua maneira muito solto não tinha vergonha de dançar,muito charmoso,sua voz belíssima,quem não gostaria de dançar juntinho com essa rapaz?Acho q era um grande pé de valsa hahaha

Sem contar que era lindo um charme incomparável e que voz gostosa de ouvir gosto até hoje 2023.

Hands Down....cant beat it with anything Today!😁

[@SaiyanOozaru]

The guy on the drums in the beginning looks like a younger Arnold Schwarzenegger

[@edsonnavarrus7379]

Daryl reaches an angelical atmosphere with this diamond of a song

[@beastyfromustoyou5105]

G.E ON DRUMS?

[@PeterSavad]

Right?

[@paistekid]

No surprise here since he's a talented musician. Also, he's playing a straight forward drum pattern, rimshot, hi-hat and kick. Now the pattern Mickey played on the Simmons pads is a little trickier, wish it's a little louder in the mix!

[@sweeneymcsweeney7509]

According to Wiki he was their lead guitar player from '79-'85. So talented!

[@Fred1976]

Great musician!!!

[@tim_ee_tree_uh_]

All these men are multi talented

Just an amazing love song Chills man and I am a dude

[@williamclark2292]

I dig Daryl. Long live T Bone.

[@mariohenriquez8599]

I love this song, if I born again, I want to hear it again.

[@jarrodmcdermott9109]

This is only live version that sounds like album...all other live performances on here in the 90s and after suck...they changed arrangement with acoustic guitar and his vocals took a shot down after 1988

[@juliano2106]

At this time he could still sing all the tones of the song, great voice

[@rjpg]

good point ---"at the time". sadly can't do anymore---no can do :)

[@gjs9441]

Yes he can. Daryl's voice did not age.

[@Jaheartsjonas]

I'm pretty sure G.E.'s just taping the cymbals and/or hitting another drum, that's it. I doubt Mickey could play synth drums and real drums at the same time, so G.E. was probably helping.

[@oddaside]

tracy 4 U!!!!!!

[@thewhitneykempexperience]

Classic! I play this on the record player my dad gave me with the original H2O album!

La canción de Edi Sierra, Amamos tanto, pienso que sí realmente *" amas "*a alguien no te olvidas de esa persona y, te da lo mismo una que otra persona, de lo contrario *" tu sentimiento es verdadero "* luchas por él literalmente,, por qué sientes que es mutuo, entonces habrás encontrado el "" Verdadero Amoooo oooor"* para mí sería encontrar *"El tesoro más importante del mundo"* esos son Amores verdaderos y eternos"* , o alcanzar la felicidad eterna.... Conocí un matrimonio así, los presidentes de la Misión Vs As Oeste año 96 Los Moore , cuando el *"Amor"* es verdadero todos lo sienten, son pocos pero los hay !!! . Es el sentimiento más puro,.noble y bello que puede existir, a eso *"Aspiro"*💋💘💓💦💞💋🌼

[@Jaheartsjonas]

I agree with you very much! I personally am not a big fan of their big hits after hearing their other material, but the live versions were amazing. I especially love the live versions of Sara Smile on YT. Much different than the original because of Daryl's improv. Thanks for the info.
