There is a classic tune called "SUNRISE!" It is a pure d ripoff of a classic HALL & OATES tune. The responsible group is SIMPLY REDD and they tear the tune up! So much so that you overlook the obvious ripoff!

While I'm in this particular forum, I want to thank you again BISHMAN for putting that video up by "LOOSE ENDS" on the tune "TELL ME IF YOU STILL CARE!" Thats a beautiful ballad and when I crank the reel to reel up, everybody on the block wants to know who it is. I always put it on when cutting my grass, or working round my house.

Thank you again man.

Hey Tuck, Hall & Oates is one of my favorite groups. The song Simply Red covered is called “I can’t go for that”. I have to agree with you, they did one helluva job with it (if I find it I’ll post it for you).

It's almost impossible to cover a classic. LUTHER was IMO the best at doing it. Gotta make the song your. I'll have to keep an ear out for that Simply Red cover.

Ya'll remember when Sarah Smile came out and errbody thought Hall & Oats were brothas. LOL

I guess some things never change right now a lot of people still think Robin Thicke is a brother. Oh and btw, the same thing for Bill Clinton, a lot of people thought he was a brother also! LMAO
