>better gay couple

Great in the 70s I would say.

Got worse with time rather than the contrary.

WHAT I WANT

masters of "modern" blue-eyed soul and seriously levels of funk for white guys but the current ironic hipster fan base is oh-so cringey, if he didn't have that stupid gay mustache none of those jackasses wearing their girlfriends' jeans would have ever given them a second glance

My favorite characters in mgsV

I've never met another young person who genuinely was into Hall and Oates outside of their smash hits or whatever was on Vice City.

WHOA HERE SHE COMES

I BETTER LEARN HOW TO FACE-LIFT

[dream ended]

not a huge fan overall, but Say It Isn't So is one of my favorite songs of all time

nonsense. hipsters and art kids like them because their music is smooth and vibey as fuck and it sounds great when you're out with your friends.

all the young art crowd people I know love them. if you're driving anywhere you'll probably hear them from someone's ipod eventually.

You literally cannot look at that pic and then not want a moustache

Lennon and McCartney of the 70's and 80's.

>white

Daryl is the genius of the two

Literally wrote one song (women jerking them around) and recorded it dozens of times across multiple albums.

Bigger Than Both of Us [RCA, 1976]

Now they're rich boys and they've gone too far 'cause they don't know what matters anyway. C+

Oates's voice is pretty badly shot now while Hall still sounds quite good.

you're out of touch

That's probably because in the 70s, they split up vocal duties 60% Oates/40% Hall while in the 80s onward it was like 90% Oates/10% Hall.

I'm out of time

>critic
>muh politics of resentment

Harold Bloom is so right about these people

For real, Abandoned Luncheonette is a gem

BECAUSE YOUR KISS

These guys are considered gods in Philly.

"Music critics love Elvis Costello because they all look just like him."

-- David Lee Roth

They were daddy af.

truer words have never been said about critics, except for the damning points Bloom also makes

Adult Education is GOAT

>quoting David Lee Roth

It just dawned on me that 'Private Eyes' can be interpreted as being about a guy hiring PIs to stalk a girl

>disregarding people like David Lee Roth

I have much more interest and regard for what actual musicians/artists have to say than what resentful, ugly little talentless four-eyed twerps do.

I know. Christgau is all like mmmmuh punk mmmmuh New Yawk Dawlz.

really though. is there anything more fucking boring than New York Dolls? boring fucking rock n roll, but they have makeup! it's all about the text!

I wonder why wikipedia even puts his review's in the album ratings. He's the only one who takes himself seriously

Well, he hates technically skilled players or anything but basic three chord rock.

fuck you now i have to play that game

Awful

Does anyone else consider that Christgau and Scaruffi are just Sup Forums shitposters with their own websites?

Scaruffi>>>>>>>Christgau

Prove me wrong

Leave them alone, they're family men.

Their music is great background noise for working at a chilled pace in the evening.

>rich girl detected

They've got that tom waits thing going where you're probably a huge fan of their work without even knowing out was them

No soul on their music though, just business
