"I Can't Go For That" - Daryl Hall, Mayer Hawthorne, Booker T. Jones

[MrTguy895]

Both this and Chromeo's version is fantastic, but I like this one better for one reason only: ORGAN. Booker T kills it.

[Poopaloo55]

Who would have thunk they could improve on the original? Mad good!!

[konge1]

Best ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[beeroosterm]

Hey! Just saw the teleprompter in the background. Oh, well - can't learn everything by heart...

[MrDaviddarwin]

I wish I was playing in this band. They'd throw me out most likely. I ain't played the drums for 25 years. Cant help reminiscing though. Bloody fantastic music.

[jerbojones]

man i've heard Daryl perform this song many different ways and they all sound good! The one with Chromeo was my favorite though that one just kicks some serious ass!!!!

[madmalik13]

Brilliant

[prodas2008]

Daryl is amazing ✌

[montaukmania]

The Hall and Oates Band is the best band in the world. These musicians are always right on target, they are perfectionists and they love what they do. AMAZING♥

[jfmayer]

all these songs sound so fresh now with the sanitization of the 80's production...wow I'm rediscovering all of them from all those Daryl's house vids.

[mildredthorn22]

tamo curtindo som sai dessa benhe q isso? tchau

[mildredthorn22]

SHPWRRR choramoooo benhe de rir valeu

[mildredthorn22]

[johanjackman]

the sound & lyrics still awesome all the year..

[RondoRedux]

Simply amazing. Classic musicians, new and retro, all jamming...there's hope for the music world yet.

[coolnewend]

Oh and this song beats most music nowadays!

[coolnewend]

Drummer rockin a Barcelona shirt :D Anytime someone reps my hometown I just gotta drop a like!

[oldschoolhunter]

Can't go for the queer sound on the mic, KEEP IT REAL DARYL. The music sounded great, singer had to go.

[22veetee]

I wanna be a drummer after watching this!! AWESOME!!!

[ghuroo1]

this is..something!

something really good

[huskerbird1]

just got in trouble with a fella at the library for tapping my foot to this song. some folks are jsut so sensitive.

[AbbyNormal777]

@huskerbird1 Tell 'em you'll tap your foot right up his ass...yea, I know I talk all gangsta on this keyboard...Houston, we have a situation @ the local library..some kind of internet brawl..you better get down here..a surgeon will be needed to remove a foot...

[huskerbird1]

@AbbyNormal777 Your funny, and I appreciate the vote of confidence. He was obvioulsy anal, later a couple of folks came in and they werre chatting a ways from him, he went and hunted them down. I later told him he must be new here and needed to be less sensitive, or needed to go to the OSU library, this one's a public one and sometimes you have to suck it up. He wont be back.

[huskerbird1]

@huskerbird1 And who couldnt tap their foot listening to Daryl or Meyer? Great stuff. My college age son, who was in a bar, chatted up with this hot gal, asked her who she liked to listen to, She said you might think me strange but I like Daryl Hall, My son had heeded my advice to listen to Eyes for you, among others, and he took my advice. Good for him. He was born in the wrong time, and listens to all the stuff I grew up with.

[ndesa]

this guy is so good. its crazy.

[NlessBuzz]

Outstanding episode Daryl!!

[saxman44060]

The whole thing is just to cool,, really like this group together ,," Hall and Hawthorne" sounds good!

[cloud9dj]

Just How Cool Is Booker T Jones............

[trinickdrums]

Mayer Hawthrorne in Auckland, Nz 2nite!!!! meke maori!

[wchase62]

I spent a lot of years turning nose up at Hall and Oates their first time around as MOR pop. I'm all over it now. I haven't found a clunker in any of the Daryl's House performances.

[bigtimcny]

That Mayer is a great singer

[limbo0031]

@coykeyproductions LOL! 

[Chatmire72]

So epically funky!!!

[martinis261]

[leodinamita]

Extraordinarios musicos...

[ThePaperboy9]

How often do you get an organ solo! Nice!!

[TheBUCEY]

@ThePaperboy9 Often.

[jaygatsby1]

@ThePaperboy9 you get one when you have booker t. jones coaxing honey from a Hammond B3........he's music royalty and a true gentleman.

[gmvalentine626]

OOHHHH, BABY! This is super!

[jbarkerhill92]

These guys are rocking a really tight groove

[amERICa1787]

This NOT Daryl Hall....It is Will Ferrell dressed up! MORE COW BELL! hahahaha I love these jam sessions at Daryl's House! Take it on the road!

[goknights77]

man i wish they had an album of this on Itunes!

[TheYuame]

man.. the drummer is a BEAST! :O THUMBS UP BABY!

[MrDaviddarwin]

@TheYuame I Bloody love it and them. Terrific....

[scottedecarlo]

That drummer is good...but he definitely slowed the song down once he came in and especially from around 0:40-1:20ish. But I still love this song. :)

[soulofmike]

@scottedecarlo

what ???? that drummer is f**kin awesome !!!!

[beeroosterm]

Is it just me or does Daryl Hall look like he's had more than a few glasses of the vino?...

[gregboy59]

This song rocks to the core. better get more wine!

[PeoplesWar]

This song just made 1981 into 2011.

[mohacz]

Drummers T-Shirt - priceless :))

Brilliant version

[kezie666666]

awesome

[dapethead247]

Im in a state of euphoria...thanks guys

[mattdaddyful]

This is SOO F^&*ING GOOD!!!!

[CoykeyProductions]

apparently 3 people can't go for that...

[62rach]

@CoykeyProductions can go for that?...

[billbilhou]

Huge version of the great song!

[adrenergetic]

Quadruple like



[Olito70]

First time I see a drummer with Barcelona soccer team equipment.

[Olito70]

Daryl Hall really loves music!

[beeroosterm]

Saw the video in this session with Mayer Hawthorne singing the first verse of "Private Eyes". Amazing, clear, perfect. Check it out. Man has talent.

[mattdaddyful]

Orgasm to my EARS!!!

[Poopaloo55]

@mattdaddyful That's called an eargasm!

[mattdaddyful]

@Poopaloo55 There's actually no such thing(Made up word)as an Eargasm-So I can say it any way I want..lol..But you are accurate..lol..GREAT SONG!!!

[Poopaloo55]

@mattdaddyful Oh really? ....Google it haha!

[jamiemarshallcom]

love the drummer .. great effortless groove .. love the stop at 1:36 after the first chorus and into verse 2 :) .. the whole thing put a smile on my face :)))

[arame29]

10 stars out of a possible 5. H&O performed it with the intro flute solo on VH1. It just flat out works. What a groove on this version! Daryl Hall makes anything sound good.

[huskerbird1]

I just cant get my head around the fact that these guys are just freaking spectacular. I grew up listening to Hall and Oats, but in continuously coming back to these songs with hawthorne and hall, They are all so good, the drummer is top line and I don't even know who he is. And Daryl doing backup. playiing the keyboard with a smug look(well deserved) Knowing this is his song. spectacular

[highoffwaffles]

Go on daddy! Get down witcha bad self!

[noitallmanaz]

chromeo is cooler



[lapterces]

LOVE this version and the Chromeo version as well. I'd have to give a slight edge to this one because of the blazing sax work of Charlie DeChant. T-Bone Wolk is conspicuous in his absence though. R.I.P. T-Bone!

[beeroosterm]

@lapterces Hate the Chromeo version. Why does Daryl insist on giving that no-talent rapper a chance to fuck up his music by injecting some electronic shit into the mix?

[mattdawg83686]

The production on this piece is so sharp I cut myself listening to it. This is how music should be. This doesn't belong on the radio with the crap passing itself off as music.

[ce3ess]

It is amazing how each and every instrument and each and every voice sounds perfect... the sound EQ is so good that one can select for example the bass and follow it thru the entire song w/o being wiped away by ANY of the other 100 sources... this is professional sound at it's best !!!

The perfrmers starting with Hall are as we know from decades already a class by themselves!!! Cheers for a superb job...

[mitzworld]

@ce3ess you are sooo right DFDH sets the standard for on line sound IMO

cheers

[DaddyTre65]

That is a JAM!! Charlie DeChant on the sax and Booker T. Jones on the organ are KILLING it! And Mayer Hawthorne has a clear, cool voice that sounds great on this H&O classic.

[boogeefonk]

I love chromeo but this was is soooo super crescent fresh right now!!!!!!!!!!

[boogeefonk]

John Oates is gonna be on Jam Cruise!!!!

[beautydaw07]

I can listen to this all day!

[MJCProductions2011]

@beautydaw07 I CAN go far THAT

[MVPPresents]

Booker T. with the organ solo at 4:00.

[findleysteveable]

Awesome jam sesson - dude on the drums - wheyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - plus a Barcelona supporter,can't ask for anything else! Daryl your vocals just gets better with time - love u man!

[sweetfly66]

that drummer is throwing it DOWN ....unbelievable groove

[ndoroutlets]

Daryl, dude!, you are living my music dream...and just about everything else from the looks of it... hey brother, call me if you need a session guitarist/keyboards. I don't mind scraps and I can throw an air mattress in the corner of the garage : ) If a home is valued by the company it keeps, yours is off the hook!

[soulofmike]

Love Mayer !!! Great team-up with Daryl !!!! The dude on the drums is awesome !!!

[tutulick]

Jazzy! interesting...how about going for a metal version? :)

[DJJimmyBee]

Daryl's doing something cool. He invites real talent into his effort. And I hope it gets to be a virtual concert site. I wonder how I could help with that.......

[dfawcett1]

I could so easily live at Daryl's house or just be a fly on the wall. I've spent the last couple of hours listening to the Live at Daryl's house videos and I'm in heaven.

[bigworld3001]

These guys make it look so easy!!!

[jjmartins2704]

amei sou brasileira e esta musica marcou milha vida

[jbarkerhill92]

amazing groove, would be fun to solo over

[rigsbymark69]

Its musical heaven1

[Juliaflo]

@rigsbymark69 You said it. I would like to see Justin Bieber top this, or should I watch my language?

[huskerbird1]

@Juliaflo screw the beaver

[lazloryder]

This song and performance is truly inspired. Handed down from the music gods.

[rigsbymark69]

Where's all the people?

[rigsbymark69]

No Sh-t!

[JulioSanzMolleda]

What a wonderful music and musicians!

[ThePaperboy9]

After listening to this.. I want to make a baby... right now

[malachiathecat]

Love it ! Wonderful ! Grande Daryl ! plus Alberto Rocchetti on Bass, and Clark Kent on vocal :-)

[danogolden777]

And that's why I cant go for that

[Randib09]

So groovy!!! Love it

[prez90]

Gary Glitter on the bass. Post-pedo.

[offthewallart08]

Holy crap .... this song makes me want to get UP to get DOWN !

[MrValiant61]

KNOCK! KNOCK! .....Oh hi Daryl, i`m the guy from next door,.....do you mind turning the sound up a little, thanks.

[bassmanjoe]

Looks like Jordan Rudess on bass.....:-)

[bassmanjoe]

TURN UP THE BASS!!!

[bassmanjoe]

This is the real deal, no autotune, no backing tracks. Listen and learn young people from the real masters.

[rejanepierre]

Eight times out of 10, I prefer the original recording over exploring different sounds of the same song but this is fantastic. I love it almost as much.

[alarregon]

como los buenos vinos cada vez mejor excelentes musicos

[JimmyGreenRules]

AMAZING. One of my all-time favourite tracks, and it is an absolutely superb cover version.

[dereks3kds]

This is what us true music lovers have been wanting.. The radio wont touch such greatness .

[mello60ful]

great bunch of musicians

[boogeefonk]

Fire City, folks!



[chazncharm]

XXXXCELLLENNNNTTTTT

[THESADPOET]

[shawdaycee101]

EXCUSE MY CONTENT I'M YOUNG BUT THAT SHIT IS BRILLIANT... THAT'S SUM FUNKY GUD PLAYING MUSIC RITE THERE GO HEAD FELLAS

[smokethejoint]

is that xavi on drum ? :p

[Mrteebee2004]

the drummers name is Brian Dunne ( current drummer for average white band ) Sean Pelton, as seen in some LFDH videos, fills in for Brian when not available.

[imcoolurnot3000]

easy ready willing overtime what a good way to start the day for anything

[jkuantho]

esta cancion have real feelings , sentimientos , y soledad , cecilia mendez stockton ca

[BabieLim]

Its so cool!!!

[bassmanjoe]

@WhereMyChicken Horrible?? What is great singing to you?

[WhereMyChicken]

@bassmanjoe Pretty much anything in key which leaves out this guy.

[bassmanjoe]

@WhereMyChicken You think he is singing out of key? He is no Hall but he sings pretty damm well. You should explain what you are talking about.

[Bubbybee187]

all them versions are good i like the one with smokey robinson i cant believe they haven't posted it yet smh

[daddytude]

amazing, just amazing, what talent!

[MrJamesyyyyyyyyy]

this is good but how can you top the version with chromeo

[tdy1339]

@MrJamesyyyyyyyyy Chromeo's version is certainly the grooviest of all time, but the whole point of LFDH is to enjoy multiple flavors of the same song: Not 2 are alike due to Daryl's talent and his amazing band. The entire Mayer/Daryl show is the best (maybe on par with the Kauai/Tod Rundgren one).

[janicerosen]

I'm always blown away by Daryl and how generous he is, allowing guests on LFDH to sing his songs. MH doesn't do justice to this mega hit of Hall and Oates but the sick band manages to override that.

[juealzbandana]

i knew it sounded familiar de la soul did their own version "say no go".

[spooncvc]

Man, thats the JAM right there!

[SFPLPresidioLibrary]

@spooncvc Heck yea!

[cdphatty]

i cant decide between this and the chromeo version, there both so awesome

[Darryld1]

This is the most unexpectedly funky thing that has happened to me in weeks!

[urwholefamilydied]

hawthorne sounds more like hall&oates than hall&oates... weird. but awesome 

[Marramarzzz]

Mayer, I can't go for not having found you long ago.

OMG, your voice is one of the better I have ever heard.

I want to see more of you

[DaMerovingian68]

This is Music at it's Best!! Old Skool New Skool... This is a sign of Good Education in both skools.

[dcme77]

Anyone know the name of the drummer?

[cinta1224]

@dcme77 The drummer is Shawn Pelton - hardcore!

[spooncvc]

@cinta1224 He's the drummer for SNL! So good!

[klpillow23]

Did two of my favorite artist's really just come together to make some of the sweetest music i've ever heard?

[MrGuesOne]

this is fuggin awesome!!!

[Dymizzo]

sigh.. Mayer Hawthorne. Can't wait to see you in SF two weeks from now!

[davidjspuria]

This drummer is amazing. Don't know Mayer, but he's not bad.

[stfub4iKeelu]

Like it much, all of Daryls house stuff and honestly am so ready to see what they've been up too and whom has shown up lately.

[HANNIBAL562]

SICK!!!

A sipping champagne on a bearskin rug by the fireplace moment.

[KuriapXia]

Man Mayer and Daryl should start touring together, this is so goodfantasticamazingsuperfunky­licious!

[MrAntHeezie]

@KuriapXia He's Still Doing His DJ Thing Too Tho

[KuriapXia]

@MrAntHeezie Yeah the man is busy i guess, but i would love to see more collaborations between the two.

What i like most about Mayer Hawthorne (And of course the legend Daryl Hall) is that he understands musicality, he understands how to put that thing or rather that vibe inside music that makes music worth listening to.

[zdrumdude]

@KuriapXia Yea right they gotta do The Walk, Mayer's last hit

[mrphilcollins]

@KuriapXia couldn't have put it better!

[KuriapXia]

@mrphilcollins Thanks mate!

[HoltrontheDestroyer]

so. smooth.

[wpavlik2]

AMAZING!

[BabsTen]

Fantastic !!!!! Thanks for sharing !!!!!
