Daryl Hall & John Oates - I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)

[SuperiorSwagon1]

Make's me think: What the hell does she want him to do? If he can't go for it, it must be weird.

Maybe she wants him to wear a penguin suit in bed or something.

[rummells357]

I love this song its my all time favoite

[franknmirth]

I HAVE NE-YO AND JENNIFER HUDSON ON MY SIDEBAR.

[pakesboy]

Do I SERIOUSLY have to have the dumbass LMFAO band on my sidebar? Stupidest band ever.

[IAM7DEMONS]

Cool jam by some cool white boys,this has soul.

[autumnsprings44]

Perhaps, the coolest white boys I've ever seen!!! And there have been quite a few!

[PhillyCEEZ]

compared to these sounds and times music is pratically dead..nobody even makes shit like this anymore

[xanthochordal]

And that's why I can't go for that.

[mozboful]

What is it?? What can't you go for??

[baby12347922]

love this song as my 3 girls were growing back in the 80s my boyfriend at the time he sang that evry day !!! great memories of this great douo never is going to die,,,

[claudia67ish]

no hay como la mùsica ochentosa!!!! gracias Hall &Oates!!

[ellevy99]

Hell yeah...Beat is sick!!! How hot does Hall looked tho? hehehe

[gmansi]

“No question about it,” Hall agrees. “Michael Jackson once said directly to me that he hoped I didn't mind that he copped that groove. That's okay; it's something we all do. [Eddie] Van Halen told me that he copied the synth part from ‘Kiss on My List’ and used it in ‘Jump.’ I don't have a problem with that at all.

[gmansi]

^ Classic Tracks: Hall & Oates "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)", Gary Eskow, Mix Online, April 1, 2006 "Listening to “I Can't Go for That” after letting it drift out of the mind for a while, one can clearly identify this track — one of the first pop hits to feature a drum machine — as a precursor to Michael Jackson's “Billie Jean” and the generation of songs built on drum machine tracks that came in its wake.

[BunchOfMnMs]

1st time I was in love with some white boys...many to follow LOL

[the80sarelegend]

Hall and Oates, possibly- no really one of the best duos that have ever lived.

[czech698]

wwwgreatbuyoutletscom wwwtopfuelsavercom Why should that give me any feeling against you? Who can have put that into your head? My father! Oh indeed. H'm. -- Was that why you never let me hear from you? -- not a single word. Yes. Not even when you made up your mind to become a photographer? Your father said I had better not write to you at all, about anything. Yes, yes; I understand. I couldn't think of remaining at college; there wasn't a shilling to spare; H'm -- - In short, I thought

[AdyinH0bo]

@czech698 Go suck your own cock bitch.

[Shenochsonyourdoor]

I have a big ol lady crush on Daryl Hall.

[captin70]

The 80s makes this new music look pre-k like.

[icepick912]

Damn it was bright in the 80s

[IBtray]

58 people went for that!!!

[dosonomoto]

Yes ! so good Thanks a lot ! 30 years this song makes me dance among all others, a part from that I'm metal and funk music fan:D music, melody and good rythm that's all we need.

[CriticalDamage91]

I was born in the wrong damn decade!

[8888yoshi88]

Every time I hear this song, it makes me feel great. The song and tempo is beautiful. It makes me nostalgic, bringing me back to the 80's, which is weird because I was born in 1998 0.o I wish i could go back and live in the 80's, since I didn't get the chance to :|

[casdjack]

@8888yoshi88 Ahhh the 80's, that was back when this country had a real president.

[astrozier1]

memories

[MegaEastwood]

these white boys rock

[TheAussieBoys2]

hey im 12 and my dad showed me hall and oates and now i love them a LOT better than JB

[MegaEastwood]

@TheAussieBoys2 realest thing a young dude can ever say .. stay fresh youngin

[TheAussieBoys2]

@MegaEastwood yeah u said it

[sthmegababe]

is it weird that i first heard the song from the bird and the bee (band)

[ducksauss]

Now this is music right here. These guys got more soul in their pinkies than these guys that are out today have in their entire bodies.

[cmayfield1957]

Hall and Oates, man for the good old days when music was music!

[MIKECNW]

this was from late 1981 or early 82.

Anyway who was the wrapper who stoed the melody from this song?

[ExcruciatingMinutae]

I think we can all agree that the man with the sax totally stole the show...

[GeGo680]

@ExcruciatingMinutae You're right, his name is Charles DeChant

[ExcruciatingMinutae]

@GeGo680 Today's music needs more sax solos

[cun7us]

this song has feel good, melancholy & nostalgia all wrapped in one.

[1blessedbrotha]

I remember !!!!!!!

[celticfrost78]

prophet 5 has got some sound

[charlie123abc360]

billie jean:)

[bishdnjuan]

so simple but yet so smooth...i miss music like this

[natasico]

H&O are cool but 80's were a shitty nihilistic time in music. 70's music is 100 times better

[NMWMN]

I can't go for that Mo.

[MultiMagoon]

@sexyfatbastid-you are crazy

[kilokitten]

i was 17 when this came out and its as great now as it was then!!

[sexyfatbastid]

Am I crazy,...or is this playing a little fast?

[ILuvMusic4real]

That Robin Thickie mufucka aint got nothin on my dudes right here. They got songs for yo ass.

Luv em!!!

[SuperCatfire]

I got here from sonic CD.

[368carameldelux]

Our blue-eyed soul brothers...........LOVE HALL and OATS!! Daryl can sang his ass off!!!

[nicholaswheeler]

that sax player is fuckin shiny

[crystallite291]

i'd fuck john in a heartbeat! oh yeah!

[gaiaon123]

Am I the only one who thinks this sounds a LOT like Billy Jean?

[BalooRJ]

@gaiaon123 Billie Jean sampled this.

[porjurican]

Wow, this came out the year I was born...Great song!

[TheTKC64]

Before De La Soul made "Say No Go", there was this. So whimsical and cool.

[ReignReviews]

Found this cause of Childish Gambino

[Galidorquest]

This is one of the coolest videos ever made

[prettypets1]

I love my life on the 80's n my clothes n my music n all of it...my motorcycles, my high school, my boyfriend, my hair, my life....my life goes fast but never forget many things ...one of the things is this song....how many times I danced...I dkn!!!

[CodSingletary]

This would sound really good while riding an elevator.

[cheetah5115]

[LexyPooh5]

Man I really miss just good music.........This was the jam. I'm a 80's gal!!

[LMmccallL57]

@LexyPooh5 I feel the same way. I'm and 80s girl, too. I listen to a radio station that plays a lot of actual music like this. I'm SO glad! :D

[14boosh]

bob fossil mighty boosh brought me here :)

[MeanBlackDude]

70's baby.....I have BEEN here!

[low72]

I love how the track keeps building and instruments keep layering...then darryl slowly comes in with his white ass boy soul voice...ooooh so smooth, so smooth...and to think, he's still singing and doing his thing in 2012...how bout that?

and GTA Vice City got me into Hall & Oates when I was about 13...you can run and tell DAT, homeboy

[pinssimies]

Bob Fossils sexy dancing brought me here

[gokuandvegetass2]

[lkraie]

[RockinRockstar4ever]

[stfran24]

FUCK Glee!

[spimax12]

@stfran24 FUCK You!

[stfran24]

@spimax12 Are you really defending that show or just trolling? lol i can't tell

[spimax12]

@stfran24 im sorry for saying that but i really like that show

[a2sampson]

I'm glad I didn't live during all those other decades. That way, I have nothing to miss; only appreciation for the past and all good music.

[gonel2]

:OOOOOOOOOOOOO sunrise D=

[marialiry]

thumbs up if you have to search whose who lol and still luuuuve them

[Tikastar1971]

Oo I love Hall & Oates. Growing up in the 70's - 90's music era was terrific. I found myself singing this song over and over tonight and decided to use YouTube. Thanks YouTube! I also miss my man TTD (Terrence Trent D'Arby) but Spotify is awesome to listen to all music as well (no videos).

[123HenryP]

Bob Fossil <3

[MrYorkyporky]

Gay but cool

[sgurung59396]

@theogrodelpantano: Michael Jackson admitted to ripping off a riff. He was told that that riff was itself ripped off

read more at omg facts

[htnqn32]

Hall and Oates put out excellent songs! I'm so glad that I grew up in the 80s! Thanks :)

[itzdayna]

one of my dad's and mine favorite bands...i love the 80's.

[nateboy2007]

The most TIMELESS beat I ever heard! Absolutely love it!

[theogrodelpantano]

Hey, I think the pace is a little like Michael Jackson billy jean, so who copied whom?

[hysuka2]

@theogrodelpantano Michael admitted he took it from Hall while they were recording "We Are The World" lol but then Hall admitted he took it from another song.

[theogrodelpantano]

@hysuka2 it's nice information, thanks

[k3eno]

One the best jams of all time lol..

[Cervezasi]

Hall is the clean shaven one, lol.

[Cervezasi]

This is wrong. It came out in 1981, not 83.

[massivesausage]

Which ones hall and which ones oates?

[94aerodynamic]

@massivesausage Oates with the 'tache. Hall the lead singer

[MrRebuttal]

Damn! VEVO stealing this video too? I CAN'T GO FOR THAT!!!

[Olito70]

I'm dancing!

[MrKary1503]

NO CAN DO!

[limoqueen949]

Everybody was grooving to this.

[colinhotham]

I lived in the 80s and this is MUSIC !!

[teddyf3]

Of all my regrets, my biggest one is that I did not live in the 1980's.

[anafoxx]

@teddyf3 right? =/

[Kalavere]

@teddyf3 I'm an 80's kid, it was pure win!

[KingOfSchmucks]

@teddyf3 If you lived then you would know it was just as crappy as every other decade but in its own way. Rose tinted glasses hurt, bro. Each decade had its good and bad, don't pretend that one decade was better than any other because they were all "now" at the time, just like this decade is "now" for now... Obligatory Spaceballs joke.

[KingOfSchmucks]

@KingOfSchmucks Just wanted to add that not appreciating your own decade or generation is sad and you are missing out on what you can do right now with people of your own age. You will never relate to the 80s but you can relate to this generation, look beyond that which you dislike and you will find there is gold underneath, there is gold everywhere/everywhen.

[nativemrv19722]

@teddyf3 I did. i was a kid and love this music. 80s the best.

[wedabest408]

fun fact.this song topped the r&b charts in the 80s.i love all of their songs!what happened to music?

[yoginiclare]

No body does it better...........Than Bob Fossil the light blue bitch.

[DanDeePee]

am I watching tim and eric?

[200nikesdeep]

one of the best pop songs ever made and a great late night song

[PeoplesWar]

This song captures how bad the economy was in 1982.

[200nikesdeep]

@PeoplesWar just like now

[PeoplesWar]

@PeoplesWar 2012 = 1982

[jazzyfayy1983]

@PeoplesWar i miss 1982

[Rudeinfw]

I feel like I'm watching a parody.

[cookz1]

[katoppofu]

you can help but to love music cause hearing it you dont see color .. you can sit back and think dose that apply to me or is that a song that i can play anywhere.. time and sound dont see color only we do .. when you close your eyes what do you see..i see someone mad at his/her love and dont want to go thought the pain of what it will cause next..

[TouchMeTherePlease]

It was hard to contain my laughter after seeing Hall, Oats put me over the edge and when Uncle Joey from full house got in there I lost my mind and found myself on the floor rolling around
