I am all about Sara Smile.  I love that song so much, I am naming my first-born daughter Sara.

Also there was a song that came out either last year or in 2005 called "Do it for love", although maybe it never charted.

He did appear on backing vocals yes.  He also sings back-up on the 1984 INXS hit "Original Sin"

John Oates appears as backing vocalist on the 1987 Icehouse hit "Electric Blue" to which he also co-wrote the song :)

As far as I know, that one never charted in the mainstream, but it might have been an A/C hit.  It was a nice song

Always been a big fan of Hall & Oates.  "Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid" is probably my favourite.  I re-created the video mix version of "Out Of Touch" not long ago and is currently in the playlist on Renegade Retro (coming up shortly) and is also available on my mix blog.

Good stuff. Do you know if "Guessing Games" was any kind of single? I think I've seen it on one of their compilations.

One thing I just noticed was that every single off Big Bam Boom consecutively charted a teeny bit lower. After "Out of Touch" I like "Possession Obsession" the best out of the other three, actually. John Oates' higher pitched vocals suited the retro new wave/ballad feel of the song better than Daryl could have.

Don't know about that one, but I remember some stuff from their recent Christmas album was on the A/C chart.

Guessing Games was an album track on H2O.  As far as I know, it was not released as a single in North America or the UK, but it might have been a single in other foreign countries

"Do it For Love" hit #1 in the Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart :)

Yeah I thought it did *something*, cause it was being hailed as their "comeback" album/hit.

It's a pretty song.  I love Daryl Hall and John Oates.

It should have been a mainstream hit, but in today's crazy music world, Hall and Oates sadly don't fit :\'(

Guess Daryl Hall's "Can't Stop Dreaming" album didn't make the charts.  That's too bad...the song "Cab Driver" is great.  However, this is played on a smooth jazz station, so maybe it made the jazz charts just not the a/c charts...or not.  ???
