“We collaborate together. We work with other people. We work by ourselves.” — John Oates

I have a lot of friends who are involved in everything from Americana to blues to R&B to pop to country.

There isn't one album that says 'Hall & Oates.' It's always 'Daryl Hall and John Oates.' From the very beginning. People never note that. The idea of 'Hall & Oates,' this two-headed monster, this thing, is not anything we've ever wanted or liked.

With Hall & Oates, honestly, after years and years of playing the same material, it's easy to coast. I can coast through a show.

I'm bad at math.
