Mike Oldfield-Family man

sorry this does nothing for me at all...hall and oates all the way!

I prefer the Hall/Oates version. Sorry.

This version is vastly superior to the Hall & Oates debacle which actually attempted to change the ending of the song by adding their own idiotic lyric (he went back but she was gone). It's like pasting arms onto the Venus de Milo.

This is the original version isnt it,
I once had a long argument with someone trying to clam Hall and Oates wrote it., the Hall and Oates version came out after this .

Actually one year later - this came out in 1982, Hall and Oates version in 1983...

An interesting approach for Oldfield, being a contemporary female vocaled pop song - but with experimentation within, particularly with the drip-drop guitar effects, and the oompah like sound of the bass.

After hearing both this and Hall and Oates version, while Hall has a strong voice, their version by contrast seems to be slickly produced...

The original is better!

When it gets to 100 comments, someone needs to count up all the people who preferred the Hall/Oates version or the Olfield version. I, by the way, prefer the Hall/Oates version.
