Hall & Oates

Blue skies for today
Don't need no more lonely nights
All the black & blues have made me
Yeah, they made me see the light
Down and out but always dreaming
Gonna dream the love to grow

I think the sun was in my eyes
This time the time won't pass me by
Lucky on the second try
This time the time won't pass me by

Feel so lucky baby
Just to have another try
When love comes callin' tears stop falling, hey
I believe I know the reason why
Tho' I gave your love away
You brought it back and doin' that has made me see

I think the sun was in my eyes
This time the time won't pass me by
Lucky on the second try
This time the time won't pass me by

Just the past I can't replace
Don't you know I see the future in your face
Can it be the bad times were what it took to see
The love we had was true for you
And good for me

I think the sun was in my eyes
This time the time won't pass me by
Lucky on the second try
This time the time won't pass me by

They would go on to sell 13 million albums and 6 million singles primarily during the 70’s and 80’s when they recorded their most prolific and profound music. They blended rock, jazz, soul, and pop create a genre they titled rock and soul.

While their technical musicianship, innovative songwriting styles, and popular live performances were praised, they also had a fruitful partnership with their manager Tommy Mottola, who was helped Hall & Oates break into music videos before they were popular and made profitable financial deals by helping them get on the ground level of and corporate sponsorship of tours. Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.
