[KahaluuMartyMom]

[johann99]

The Method Man looked very different back in the day.

[DancingSpiderman]

Every song on the Big Bang Boom album was excellent!!

[DancingSpiderman]

It suprises me to know that John Oates knows the C-Walk

nigga-GAH-DAYyum

[Hereismytwocents2011]

Thumbs up if your junior high days brought you here.

[rubbindubbin4life]

Ooooooh now thats what i call singing....damn how i wish i could sing like that

[epholder39]

put your W's up. Wu 4 life

[whatthehellvideos]

i used to smoke blunts to this shit in the 80s...hell ill smoke one now

[catolog96]

I'm sorry, but I have to say it

M-E-T-H-O-D...MAN!

[TRASUPO]

6 MIN's for a single can you say that for any other pop hit oh sorry l forgot to mention Johaun Strause the the beautiful blue danube.

[burhanb]

Oh, shit. He fell off the roof and died and finished the song from a cloud in heaven.

[MegaVenus74]

sorry , that was real music, not the garbage we have today

[wendya1972]

I don't understand why Hall & Oates are not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Makes NO sense to me what so ever.

[kja427]

@wendya1972 I agree. THEY SHOULD BE. It's because of videos like this that they became The Biggest duo in The Music Industry. One of these days, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will get their heads out of their asses. Until then...

[Wickedsicked8]

@wendya1972 there pop

[horrorscope71270]

@wendya1972 It's because their music actually awoke the subconscious of people...something THEY don't want. Hall and Oats were the prime example of the wonderful abilities of human beings.

[redredshoes]

Ah, the eighties.....

[jorave777]

@redredshoes yeah man, pure feeling!

[Supersweetguy]

From John Oates: METHOD OF MODERN LOVE was a real studio creation. Daryl had the initial idea in his head, and that really came together through a lot of unusual recording techniques and the new technology -- a lot of early sampling and things like that that we were into those days. It was pretty much constructed in the studio.

[jorave777]

@Supersweetguy a perfect creation!

[Supersweetguy]

@jorave777 Thanks.

[Jensiebo]

do you hear any saxophone at 2:14 ? nuthin but steam comin out of the sax -.-

[jorave777]

@Jensiebo lol!

[msmithstud]

TBS NIGHT TRACK CHARTBUSTERS in the mid 80s was the first and last time i heard this song.

[stevegerard88]

the music started solo is beauitiful

[SweetDreams706]

This is one of my favorites by H&O; they are fabulous. I always had a crush on Daryl....still do, in a way, lol. I'm enjoying 'Daryl's House' nowadays, check it out if you haven't already. I swear his voice has gotten even better with age.

[kgw2006]

M.E.T.H.O.D.O.F.L.O.V.E

When I was junior high school student, I remember the word "method" by this song.

I'm Japanese.

[wjenpacific]

I love them..classic!!80's !!

[EricWallwin]

THe Magic of Music...Glorious Music....As I sit watching and listening wishing I could go back to 1984 just out of high school enjoying being young and free. Everything was a new experience , though we can never go back , the power of the mind and magic of the music can put you right back to where you want to be . I guess 47 years old now isnt so bad, just keep the music rolling !

[shanedangers]

53 people enjoy sucking nasty disease ridden donkey cock..lol.. i bet these same 53 people think Britney Spears is an undeniable self made talent too..and that Lindsey Lohan is like...totally an awesome actress and great person..stay away from me 53 dislikers!!

[jorave777]

@shanedangers of course!

[citizenfitz]

Neg all videos with ads.

[Solidgoldgoonie]

Great song, is a method of my pants getting tighter!

[GhettoBlaster100]

M.E.T.H.O.D. MAN ;D

[MrSkorpionking71]

Method of modern love? 2 have money and a modern car!

[jetershomie]

By far their funkiest track of all time. T-Bone are you serious dude? unreal talent.

[Starlesslight]

Sometimes I regret having been born at a time that I could grow up listening to this music. Today's musical melodies and beats are the equivalent of a run on sentence, with people who repeat a hook over and over that can't even usually write music or play an instrument. I miss real singing, variety and change ups in the music, instrument solos, and people who made music mostly for the love of it, not to make money for their corporate puppet masters or just to be famous.

[JESUSanswers1]

Hall, rapping, nice! This guy was soooo bad!!!

[TheMegapwnage666]

50 people didn't like this cuz this isnt auto tune....suck it up!

this song is the shits :D

[bastlake]

Weird Al brought me here

[andy42x]

G.E. Smith looks like Ernest Borgnine.

[Jesus52285]

this song is the jam method of modern love is a twinkling of an eye handshake blue eyes hello etc

[VenusGospeI]

this is a smash hitter no doubt about it lyrics sizzl................g

[bobzilla2011]

I used to get sick of watching this vid back in Philly now I cant stand it 

[jray1099]

That B.A.S.E !!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrThisworldismines]

Fags

[TheKimberBenton]

This was written by Daryl Hall and Janna Allen, the sister of Hall's long term girlfriend and songwriting partner, Sarah Allen. Janna Allen also co-wrote Hall & Oates #1 hits "Kiss on My List" and "Private Eyes."

As befitting the modern theme of the lyrics, this was Hall & Oates most up to date single yet with a rap-like ad lib in the song's closing verse.

I like this song a lot by them. I think it's pretty cool and catchy.

[lenelljeter2]

"Method of Modern Love" got to # 21 on the R&B Chart in 1984. In the early/mid 80s a lot of funk-ish music crossed from the R&B chart to the US / UK pop charts & vice-versa. Melba Moore's "Love's Comin At Ya" reached #15 on the UK pop chart in 1982. A few more examples, the US R&B Chart: "Shock the Monkey", "Miss Me Blind" "Out of Touch."

[lenelljeter2]

You may find that it is worth the time to take a look and listen at the song lists that have been posted to Itunes Ping that meld together rhythmically & stylistically compatible early/mid 80s R&B/funk songs and early/mid 80s synth pop/new wave songs. Lots of music that was either forgotten or not ever learned of but was very enjoyable or would be very enjoyable if it was rediscovered or discovered for the 1st time by people that enjoy this type of music. People like you?

[lenelljeter2]

I have researched these music categories for the past 9 years

and I have rediscovered tunes I had forgotten about or I discovered

new tunes that totally deserved the time it took to discover them.

In Itunes Store or Itunes Ping if you use the search terms "electrofunk" (as a single word) or "80s funk" the search result shall produce several lists that have "electrofunk" or "80s funk" in the playlist name in the "Playlist" category at the low left corner of the search result.

[lenelljeter2]

Click on the "more" link and once you have opened the next page that has

all of the Playlist search results for "electrofunk" or "80s funk",

you'll quickly find a bunch of lists that use the title "Ebony & Ivory Electrofunk".

[lenelljeter2]

These lists have songs that (1) you may have heard before and enjoyed but forgotten or (2) songs that you may enjoy now but you have not heard before. These lists also include album cuts that were not released as singles and songs from lesser known yet solid groups/soloists such as Fatback, Kashif, Laid Back, D Train, Boys Don't Cry, and Dynasty.

[nitedrive]

Mullets aplenty here. Yow. Pretty catchy but goofy as hell vid.

[jsmall7415]

Yeah I agree the video is a little corny but so were most of the 80's videos...... But great song though

[IvanMtl]

This is just soOo embarrassing that I had to look away. lol We were talking about worst songs and videos at work today, and this one came up. I honestly think we have found our winner.

[mukaikof]

@IvanMtl dude you are an idiot. this is an amazing video and a great song! i think it looks so great, so realistic, no special effects or editing bullshit. and hall and oates perfect music sound in the 80's. but who cares about the video, its all about the sound,style,and makeup!

[juffan]

m-e-d-h-o-e-r-f-l-o-v

[vodude]

Their videos may have been corny but their music was absolute perfection.

[KuttyJoe]

Why am I hearing, "Hey DJ won't you play that song keep me dancing, all night"

[marzgirl11]

Incredible vocal.

[grapisavillain]

M-E-T-HO-D Man!

[horrorscope71270]

[YOUREAPSOW]

GREAT,CLASSIC SONGS BY HALL AND OATES IN THE 80'S,WHOEVER DIRECTED THE CONCEPT FOR THESE VIDEOS WAS CORNY

[rarabarak]

I can't believe I still remember the words to this song. I saw them perform this live on the American Music Awards in I think it was 84. Me and my friends were on the phone right afterwards talking about their performance

[adrianmyson]

[myownservant]

MOAR SNARE

[conradryan1980]

Thanks for this video. I've been listening to my remix cd's non stop. It's so sad that no one out there can produce music like this anymore...Hall & Oates are one of a kind

[youraverageuser]

great song 

[MrMiles716]

[blase410]

Method man copied off of them!!! silly Rabits

[Goombah777]

This was a fun video.

[saganemc2]

HEY!!!!, they totally copied Method Man (M E T H O D- man) in this song!!

[RainMan68]

@saganemc2 You got it backwards. M E T H O D-man was released in November 1993. H&O's Method Of Modern Love was released in the fall of 1984, nine years before. It was Method Man who copied Hall and Oates.

[ednoroirika]

@RainMan68 Who in there right mind thought somebody copyed from a rapper? and I love hip hop!

[Niapeace29]

@RainMan68 wow! Did someone think Hall and Oates copied this song? Anywhoot! I love this song!!! Thanks for clearing that up! :)

[johann99]

@RainMan68 He's just trolling

[theword1975]

@RainMan68 God, someone doubted that?

[xunit94]

@saganemc2 idiot..

[xunit94]

3:48

[jaworskij]

Daryl Hall is connected with The Pleiades star system in some way.

[pmwfotos]

this song makes me giggle i don't know why hehe brb :)

[btingley88]

Darryl Hall is giving off some major David Hasselhoff vibes in this video

[MajCinematic]

I LOOOOOVE this video it always pouts me in a good mood.

[msamerica941008]

Was everyone this gay looking in the eighties??? I thought we were cool.... O_o

[rdrenf0]

[curvy71]

[ronyag421]

@curvy71 ME TOO BROUGHT UP WITH ABANDONED LUNCHOENETTE! DID I SPELL THAT RIGHT?

[vidgames4ever]

I would like to thank all the people who upload videos like these onto Youtube. AND I would like to Thank all of the Artists who allow their videos/music to be shown/played on Youtube. GOD BLESS YOU!

[masterkent18]

[MrPuchikita]

5:35

[MrGutrock]

These cats hung out with lots of Motown dudes when they were young The Temptations were one of their favorite inspirations.

[brianab31]

Sweet. Just sweet. Thanks!!

[jidoran]

They just don't make songs like this anymore !

[esseen100]

This was pop music back in the day.. (Sigh)

[supermandisco]

Ive always like those neck grooves beginning at :50! Totally makes the video memorable. Aside from the foamy clouds, of course.

[SunnyDays951]

I thin' this was da bomb, Quicksdraw!!! Damn this tune gets me blood pumpin'.

[dharmaseed]

Man, this song takes me back to the skylines of Pittsburgh in the eighties.

[dude58677]

@dharmaseed

It takes me back to the Pittsburgh Marathon during that time.:)

[MrJimmypage32]

please, Lord send me Back to the 80' I don't want to be here in this time Lord please

[aftershock71]

@MrJimmypage32 LOL!! I remember hearing people say the same thing in the 80s about the 1950s!!! I do have to agree with you though

[ceb1661]

@MrJimmypage32 I used to wish I was born in the late 60's so I could party to the 80's.

[captaint1000]

@MrJimmypage32 u n me both!!!

[jlindholm2000]

@MrJimmypage32 LOL! I totally agree=)

[davettalashley]

@MrJimmypage32 We need to build one of those Bill & Ted time machines. :D

[marna72]

@MrJimmypage32 I can't tell you how many times i have wished for the same thing! nothing is as good today as it was in the 80's!!!

[PupuTheClown]

,,I'll join you only I may turn the knob back a few more years to the late 70s.

[86443]

@MrJimmypage32 I hear you I hear you!!

[TheTrinigirl15]

[bitchiteen]

@MrJimmypage32 LOL

[DrizzlyP]

@MrJimmypage32 God doesn't check the comments section of the "Method of Modern Love" video as often as you'd think. Also, he *rarely* grants time travel requests. 

[03487]

@MrJimmypage32 jajaja ok

[Knullrufset]

@MrJimmypage32 Can i come too? please:-)

[jpksocrates]

@MrJimmypage32 I'll send you back ; )

[snowyfr]

Very unique great song! How could they make such a song?

[sabalero512]

este tema fue uno de los que quedaron grabados para toda mi vida, lo escucho y me acuerdo de mi adolescencia, estos tipos son geniales lo que daria por un recital en vivo saludos y gracias Monnya desde Argentina.

[ANGRYEYEBROWS]

I had such a crush on John Oates back then.

[MajCinematic]

LLLL love!!!

[nastynas373]

the M-E-T-H-O-D....MAN

[neyochick21]

I Love this song one of my favorite Hall&Oates songs.

[Trolleymoose]

No, they were not the first band to bridge the color gap. Back in the 60s, Sly and the Family stone gets that credit. A true pop group where race made no difference.

[QUINTUSMAXIMUS]

@Trolleymoose In a way, they are both white and black:) I didn't even realize the other singer was black. I never thought about it. I just like the music.

[cheetah5115]

I heard this song yesterday for the first time

It's my favourite song now!

i keep singing M-E-T-H-O-D O-F L-O-V-E :D

H&O FTW!

[AndrewsOpinion15]

r.i.p. 80s we miss you so much !!!
