Sara Smile - Hall & Oates

[geeman856]

in the hood we didnt care what color u was ..... if your music was good we support it .. real talk..

[tomfong292]

When I was younger, I heard this song while talking to a girl I liked. Ever since then, I get a boner every time I hear that opening guitar riff.

[aquasparkels]

Ah! lov"n this!! "Special"

[RollingStoned1985]

Greatest love song of all time

[realurban]

THIS IN HEAVY ROTATION IN MY CD PLAYER, I NEED TO FIND MY SARA...I KNOW ONE BUT SHES UGLY BUT GOOD SEX THOUGH, OH WELL IM VAIN...WHATEVER

[sammieL36]

This was based on his former girlfriend, Sara Allen. She's not dead, though. Her younger sister, Jana, died in the early 90's

[kja427]

I hear this was based on Daryl's late girlfriend Sara Allen. I must say, I respect Daryl for continuing to perform this tune after her death. That takes balls, boys and girls. Nice job!

[whbclaire]

Damn, John Oats really DOES look a lot like Bababouy!

[MsBTRFLY82]

Wow - I had no idea. I had no idea.

[preshytimey1]

YOu hardly ever hear this song and I just LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Haha! And then I come here and alll you wonderful people love it too! Love Y'all!

[tha6host]

Lmao! 5-stars because it's a great performance plus the mustache comment

[69mercuryrx7]

Only negative I have is Daryl needs to loose that weak ass stache and John needs his bad ass stache back.

[djnoveL]

They still got it, and they still look good!

[Hairychimz42]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU SHOULD BE WATCHING THE VIDEO YOU'RE MISSING IT!!

[abiola33]

I love these guys.

[LiveLifeLove88]

They forgot to add the god damn 'H'.

[jondahlberg1]

for a white guy he's seriously soulful. i almost forgot about this song AND i used to go out with a sara......

[cmarks2000]

I named my daughter from this song.

[SarahBabiBlue]

My mom says this is my song name cause my name is Sarah (:

[sfsgib]

@SarahBabiBlue me too

[lamouche123]

this is straight rnb

[alejandra28ification]

This is my faviort song by daryl  Hall and john Oates my faviort by far like i said this was on the radio as a child and todays music irrates me but music 30 yrs was music todays is rubbish!

[rrw1250]

color of skin has nothing to do with a thang! these boys can jam!!

[MrVDUBBZ]

@rrw1250 Yes they can and I will listen to them before any of the garbage being played on todays radio.

[shazam15]

I would have his babies.

[sarabeararox]

This actually makes me like my name :)

[soldiercarter]

Man them guys where so smooth.

[rrdavila153]

Great Song

[ScottCful]

Matters not skin color or background. Talent is talent.

[MrRealtalk45]

I've seen a lot of vids of him performing this song live, and it's always the same. He tries way too hard for such a chill song. Like relax man

[kjcofer]

I named my daughter after this song. Always loved it!

[twiffersmith]

@kjcofer i was named after this song...good choice!

[6664818GGG]

I have a friend who is like a daughter to me named Sara.But I have a newer friend through the internet named Sara. I certainly think of her these days when I hear this song. I must admit that my feelings for Dr. Sara are not what you would want to feel for a daughter. I think Hall and Oates would understand.[And I don't think they care what race they are, or I, or my Sara friends happen to be. Music is human. We are all human and all worthy of having a special Sara somewhere.] Greg Gibbs

[ordinarynslow]

I would make love to a special someone to this song.

[naumutroi]

this is such a great song. brings back a lot of good memories.

[lbp0403]

Love this song...........I always dedicate it to my favorite Princess!!!!:-)

[102938abel]

[Valo666Lover]

[WhatsUp20201]

@rustinonthevine there is no race in music it's universal so it's not white soul its soul

[Irishspring1986]

[tekit2007]

[tekit2007]

[bigace511]

good shit

[rustinonthevine]

White Soul

[shanghaiKISS02]

i've always known Darryl coz of his trademark falsetto voicing... too bad, looks like he's having a hard time hitting those range... nevertheless he still rocks!

[Sunrise614]

Saw them in the early 80`s in Mannheim Germany.Still Love this Songs.

Thank You H&O.

[Misshaircare2009]

Hall...he sounds good but he needs to stop sounding off key with his hits.

[precisionb]

Can't get enough of these guys

[precisionb]

Too much too soon guys you were and are still in my car on my CD!!!!

ALWAYS

[Misshaircare2009]

@precisionb Man,, I love, love that song "Too much too soon" along with "Is it a star". Shit, I feel asleep on them. LOL

[precisionb]

@Misshaircare2009 Hey you're a hairdresser? I had a NYC licence and a NJ one but when my hub passed, I let it all go.

Now I just play my guitar nd Bass.

[Misshaircare2009]

@precisionb No, it's my transitioning name from relaxed to natural. LOL

[dickdog1]

If you like this shit you probably are sexually dosoriented and should get a sex cahnge and change your name to Sara.

[elmafia187]

@dickdog1 If you dont like this you probably a faggot.

[precisionb]

@dickdog1 I really like your name it tells me just what you are.

[jenray94]

Nice...one of my favorite groups!

[jerkmamii]

im only 14 but i love this sonq.! and im black/asian .! So anyone can love such a qreat sonq

[searchn4mytruth]

Are you Sara Connor??!! il BE BACK!!

[dillikins]

Bassist at 0:22! That was a fine right there...

[izzyvulaca]

that would have been a nice chord change though

[kenndezerted]

this is epic!

[kdpbenson]

The SHIT!!!!!!! Please believe it!

[jimbobsmajor]

People want to know how do you describe soul?

If you watch this Daryl has soul writen all over him. In his face, in his hand movments.

Legends!

[ROADKING3322]

Damn he put a lot of soul in this older song. AMAZING

[melodye2]

I want to change my name to "Sara"....this is truly an amazing group. Darryl Hall is a bad ass white boy.

[paylier]

@melodye2 you ain't lying...I love AWB too!

[akualungdani]

@melodye2 mercy

[akualungdani]

@melodye2  mercy man

[John22133]

@melodye2 "white boy?"

[Valkonnen]

@John22133 Yeah, you know...A guy who sings like a black person...When they first came out, 90% of black people assumed that they were black because of the music...

[precisionb]

@Valkonnen sorry you were misinterperted but they R white.

[austntexan]

@Valkonnen I have to agree. I'm 41 and in my time(80s), H&O were pretty much all over MTV, so it's a visual thing with my gen, you think "two white guys". I can imagine though, if you're from the FM generation when they had all their big hits, no visual image to put with the face, if you close your eyes. . .man, the soul is undeniable. He really does have the voice of a traditional soul singer. Amazing.

[vegasbaby92]

brilliant!!!

[kirk7524875248]

PS. That's not a smoke machine, it's a humidifier. That band is f''ing solid!!! I wonder who the drummer is...Solid!!!

[Taina1205]

My dad got my middle name from this song! :D

Awesome song :3

[bazookasawaserpent]

Sarah Please!!

[bazookasawaserpent]

Jeez... Their tuff.

[jayt767676]

Thats a bad white boy

[emichelle]

NO WHERE'S THE TACHE!

[icemanlover1]

love it :)

[christopherbreault]

What's the thing at Daryl's feet that is blowing mist? A humidifier?

[DanWA73]

if had to guess smkoe machine ..that and roll thing...lol

[artdrtr]

when did T. Bone switch to guitar?

[TheEddie62]

Good Year+Great Time's+Good Beer =Great Song.......!

[colorblindheartful]

i love the music, maybe slow down on the hands though daryl

[ins7777]

Daryl Hall is an ego maniac...but damn he can sing, and is under rated in the soul department.

[sr51463]

I guess when your part of the most popular duet of all time you have a right have an ego about it.

[bigmicky1001]

great version :)

[babalewa]

Where was this concert?

[rachienicks]

A FANTASTIC rendition of this song. OMG how much did my sister and I love this song. Here's to you Kate. x x x x

[4udoboyz]

greatest dual-can listen to these guys all day awesome

[ToddCWiggins]

This is what happens when artists do the same song to much. Vocals gives the impression that they just want to get through it to get to other material. Incredible song, but not so hot rendition.

[bedrocker7]

This song is best played slower- even more than the recorded version- check out the Brian McKnight version btw

[6y298]

True, and ditto on Brian's version. Monte Montgomery does an incredible solo acoustic guitar and vocal version as well. H&O classic all the way any version.

[mashinkle]

they're the real deal

[jan17485]

had a chance to see them on Friday in Atlantic City. They are still really good. Daryl still sings with his heart.

[Adaleha]

@mashinkle

This is the real deal:)

[RewardHonesty]

Awesome performance. The rendition changes with artists' age and mood and vision - the original is awesome, and so is this one. Daryl's artistry, 'Sara Please' at 1:50 - damn that is smooth. Wish I could have seen this live.

[flytommy1]

OMG the best.  can't hear this song too many times. wish my name was sara...

[BNRSusie]

Great song and Daryl reminds me of a guy I used to date. Oooh .............. smile! Oooh yeaah! And Daryl still sounds great today.

[tatnell1]

great vocals, don't hear great vocals much anymore, Kevin Cronin, Burton Cummings, Mickey Thomas, Darryl Hall, etc, still good muzik today, but just different.

[JCthrowdownhour]

its like hes rapping the lyrics in this live version and i dont like it all that much : P i love this song thoughhh. aha

[Hoopskidoodle]

I didn't know that Gary Dell'Abate was a musician.

[nwilczyn]

really unfortunate chord situation they decided to end the song on... it sounds weird that way... also the sax player would have done much better to improvise on alto in this particular song... beautiful song tho...

[shelibeli40]

What a CLASSIC! Simply beautiful!

[lo0kingThruAmberEyes]

I am officially naming my first daughter Sara

[pritymindy]

Dang, John aged freakin well! Very handsome man lol! This is my song, i love being named sarah :-)

[arksi27]

Check out Brian McKnight's version-AWESOME!

[debhec88]

Hall @nd Oates 4life @};-

[nardo363636]

true that brother

[badumpy]

i hate when they sing the song differently then the record.

[nardo363636]

i some what agree with you, there is nothing like the smooth sound of the studio release

[90279619]

ME TOO...IT SOUNDS BAD THAT WAY

[linibono]

me too but maybe he forgot

[predictions]

Great!

You should check out Boyz II Men's version too...it's beautiful!!!

[badumpy]

daryl hall and bababooey

[joko9395]

LOL, aaw shame on u but on the real, he does look like him.

[joko9395]

After 7 has a version. Its nice too but it's just something about the original that makes it stand above the covers.

[SUPADUPAVIC]

AWESOME

[kyrahhh111]

im 15 and i HAVE great appreciation for this song. my favorite song ever!

[oprahIV]

@kyrahhh111 I just turned 15 today!! I love HALL AND OATES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MuscleBabyDoll]

Great Song and vid TY! Peace Karyn

[NASASquid]

Still one of the best makeout songs evah..

[lk0micho]

My name is Sara for now on.

[JimmyPeep]

He looks and sings like Howard Moon (Mighty Boosh) taking the piss in this video. Funny.

[lilccaddy]

I'm not an Oates expert but his mustache has been notoriously absent for some time now. I think there are jokes and contests about whether it will return or not. Koneko, thank you soooo much for uploading this one; I have been enjoying your other 1993-4 concert videos too -- you are obviously a careful and talented videographer WITH GREAT TASTE!!!

[hillbillyvampyre]

The moustache was purposeful, insomuch as they aged as musicians, John Oates could shave it off, looking instantaneously and miraculously youthful as his partner/nemesis Daryl aged within the public eye. Mr. Oates is a smart cat, indeed!

[flatheadpower2000]

What the hell happen to Oates moustache?

[EVHisgodyoumuppet]

I know, it's a shame. He was the king of moustaches. But he's still a great artist, so I suppose it doesn't matter (even if the moustache looked amazing).

[manc4everandever]

thanks for sharing this - i've never heard this version before

[9105091050]

LOVE THIS SONG!

[satserenity]

I love to hear Daryl sing this song he puts so much passion into it!

[72seeker72]

Classic H&O.

[spindogz]

Not may people cove this song. Not an easy song to sing.

[kmommy22]

I wish my name was Sarah...

[wimpypimpz2000]

damn I've watched this video like 50 times out of the 2,000 and some views...AMAZING everytime

[IrisMG]

Odd note to end that song on...minor chord?

[kyklopian]

It starts on a minor chord. In the original recording, it is Dm but it fades out at the end, of course.

[masteroftheobvious86]

Technique called Tierce di Picardie. Ending a song in a given tonality on the parallel...so this, a major song, on a minor chord, or vice versa.

[malu7765]

great song! i love hall and oates, they created some of the best songs of the era! konekoさん、本当にありがとう！

[konekoxox]

Thank you for your comments

It seems you enjoyed this video

I'm very happy

Keep to be cool!

[malu7765]
