Thanks to the OP for sharing this... I really enjoyed it. I didn't like much of the clips I heard from the Blackbird Diaries, but I do like this song... especially as a duet with Daryl Hall.

I wish more people would check out the show or even relisten to some songs by Daryl Hall/John Oates. I think some people would appreciate them.
You'll be glad to know you can count me as another fan of Daryl Hall... one of the smoothest/most soulful voices in pop music. The big early 80's Hall & Oates songs were a big part of the soundtrack of my childhood... But that aside, I agree that Daryl is also a very talented songwriter/musician. His solo LPs "Sacred Songs" (with King Crimson's Robert Fripp) & "Three Hearts In The Happy Ending Machine" (partially produced/written with Dave Stewart) are among his better work IMO. As for his work with John Oates, I really recommend to those whom haven't heard their lesser-known material: the interesting Todd Rundgren-produced War Babies (from the mid-70's) & the late 90's gem Marigold Sky (one of my favorites!) They've collectively covered a lot of musical ground throughout their career.
