I love hall and oats heard them as a child way before Micheal Jackson as all I had was the 1 radio station half the day it was country, . Epic music sent around a team to my school to play the video to thriller , after that they finally played thriller , didn't sound as good as it did from the record with stereo headphones, a year later . The video I arrived late for , so .... anyhow no similarities between the two songs. Exactly as Daryle Hall said. These guys are soul smooth funky coffee house , really good esp Maneater , Micheal Jackson, just at another level when I first heard thriller the album, on headphones 🎧, wow its like music had been re invented , blew my socks off

I'm not saying they don't handle the situation perfectly, like real professionals should, but they also know if anyone took the case to court, they'd immediately lose. Melodies are so important in determining whether one song "ripped off" another, and no jury in the world would ever confuse one of these songs with another.

One of my all-time fave Daryl Hall songs was one he never actually released as a single, but when British singer Paul Young recorded Hall's "Every Time You Go Away", it became a smash hit in the U.S. and U.K. in 1985. All of this success coincided with the "Live Aid" festivities around that time. Great memories 🤗

It was actually the synth part from “kiss on my list” according to what Eddie Van Halen told Daryl Hall.

Anthony Storr wrote a book called "Music and the Mind." he talked about the power of cord progression alone and how changing cord progression can take a movie score and make you feel emotions. The progression is how music alters and changes how you feel. Happy can turn to sad with cord progression. Anthony said he could look at the cord progression on a staff , not even play it or listen to it, and he could tell you what emotion you will experience while listening to it. I will bet you that Michael was referring to the borrowing of the cord progression because he wanted to make listeners feel a certain emotion in Hall & Oats music.

Very, very underrated! Daryl Haal and John Oates are the best rock and soulduo in music history for me. They still can gave them a grammy for all the great music they made and what made and makes people so happy with it In the Netherlands very underrated. There now are young people who like their music. It's timeless! It' school a pity, that they aren't much younger ( but they have the looks!) I saw Daryl Hall at paradiso Amsterdam Holland and at Vredenburg Utrecht Holland, in the beginning of the nineties, unfortunately without John Oates, but the concert was awesome!!! It' s great they have met each other! Their voices are wonderfull together!!! I will love their music most of all music, that's made, although I like a lot of music. A fan for life!!! ❤

That was very honest of Michael Jackson to apologize for something he didn't even do. Those 2 bass lines are not the same.
@AutomatikSystematik6 жыл бұрын
Well Sem, he actually said that he hopes Daryl Hall don't mind if he stole No Can Do and used it for Billie Jean, which is akin to an apology.
@AutomatikSystematik6 жыл бұрын
Sem, No. Daryl Hall has no reason at all to lie about Michael Jackson in any way. He would have nothing to gain by doing so. He's not some 2-bit leach claiming MJ sexually abused his child for a cash settlement. He's a fellow artist who's older than MJ would have been and had/has hundreds of millions of dollars of his own. MJ doesn't need to deny or confirm anything said here because if anything, DH's claim confirms that MJ was an honest, humble, thoughtful & respectful individual who felt the need to acknowledge any similarities between "I Can't Go For That" and "Billie Jean" to DH the first chance he had when they were in studio together -- which is synonymous to an apology and actually speaks very highly of Michael Jackson perfectly corroborating his character, which is the same one displayed in many, many Michael Jackson interviews over the years. It is perfectly in-line with the way Michael Jackson has conducted himself in the past. No reason to be suspicious that DH was attempting any character assassination on MJ here WHAT SO EVER!
@AutomatikSystematik6 жыл бұрын
Sem, I really don't see any point to your first rebuttal comment or any of your comments after that. You are purely speculating and in the process suggesting Daryl Hall is lying while John Oats is compliment with those lies. Not to mention anyone else who was at the studio at the time that might confirm the story if asked to recall the session. Again, you say that you're not saying Daryl Hall is lying, but then you're suggesting he's lying because MJ never confirmed the story and there's no recording of the conversation? And how do you also know that MJ never acknowledged and/or apologized to Anderson, Vangelis, or even Donna Summer for that matter in the same informal way that he did with Daryl Hall? You don't know that he didn't. So, let me get this straight; according to you're brand of reason, everything that anyone has ever said that Michael Jackson said is a lie because MJ is not on tape saying it and he never confirmed it? It makes even less sense that DH would lie about this being that he never did, and never will need anything from MJ including an informal compliment/acknowledgment at some studio session. He would be risking his reputation by lying about such a beloved, high profile popular artist like Michael Jackson -- he would have way too much to lose.
@AutomatikSystematik6 жыл бұрын
So now you're suggesting that DH lied about MJ because anyone would believe anything negative about him. Only problem is that DH's story actually makes MJ look good & humble, not bad. Let's apply the same logic to the Jones/Anderson conversation. So how do you know for sure that Quincy Jones said what he said to Jon Anderson? Is there a tape of the conversation? Maybe they're both lying because they know anyone will believe anything negative about MJ. Also, while the bass-lines are identical only different tempos, it could have been a subconscious ripoff. I've written many songs that sound nearly identical to other stuff. Not because I purposely set out to steal someone else's material, but because it was stored in my memory and eventually came out in a different form. And again, how would you know MJ didn't do the same with Summer or anyone else even remotely involved with State of Independence? They were all huge stars, I'm sure they ran into each other at various events and were probably friends. It's perfectly reasonable to suggest that MJ mentioned the same to Summer since she had success with the track. She didn't need to have written the song for it to come up in conversation. True, some high profile people might lie about MJ for whatever reason, I'll give you that. But I see no reason to believe DH lied about anything here. My original point still applies. You're calling Daryl Hall a lair through pure speculation. Now please go away. I have to go to the bathroom.

Another thing is, we only know the finished song. When MJ was writing Billie Jean, at first, it may have sounded more like I Can't Go For That, but he tweaked the song to the point that it sounded very different in the end. And maybe in the back of MJ's mind, he can still hear the similarity, hence the conversation he had with Darryl.

So MJ didn't steal a song. He drew inspiration from maybe a chord of a song by Hall & Oates. I'm glad Darryl Hall pointed out that there was no theft, even if MJ himself said he "stole" the song. "There is nothing new under the sun."

Copyright law is widely misunderstood, The only musical elements that can be copyrighted are lyrics and melody. You can't copyright a chord progression; thousands of songs have what are known as "Ice Cream Changes" (Unchained Melody, is just one example) and thousands more have "Rhythm Changes" (the chord progression from "I Got Rhythm") and while the songs may be in different keys, essentially the only thing unique to each are their lyrics and melody. You cannot copyright a drum beat. Every polka has the same beat, every waltz has the same beat, and ask a drummer, a Texas Two-Step is pretty much the same as a polka. The Cha-Cha is the Bo Diddley beat played backwards. You famously cannot copyright a bassline; every Rhumba has the same one. There MIGHT be a couple of exceptions, where the bassline is the hook; The Beatles Obla Di, Obla-Da, Queen's Another One Bites The Dust, and yes, Michael Jackson's Billie Jean, though if you look hard enough, you can probably find earlier examples of that, too.

It's a testament to their integrity to take Michael's comment in stride. Even if it went to court, I don't think there's nowhere near enough similarity, musically, melodically or rhythmically to warrant any copy infringement. "Truckin' Grain"..... er, uh, Hall and Oates are one of the most under rated acts in pop music, hands down.
