Eric Marcoullier and I were tonight embroiled in a riveting, yet wistful conversation about 70s/80s pop duo Hall and Oates. After reviewing classics such as this music video for the #1 hit title track of the 1981 album Private Eyes, it occurred to me:

Daryl Hall and John Oates look exactly like Kotaku editors Brian Ashcraft and Brian Crecente. See above, if you can imagine one pair smiling, or not smiling. Coincidence? Probably, but that's not enough of a reason for the two to form a cover band. Where's Rock & Soul Hero when you need it? I suppose it would have to include a peripheral moustache and hair extensions.

Why did no-one ever comment on this? Well, I'm fixing that RIGHT NOW!

They posted it on Kotaku, but the comments there don't really rise to the occasion. No one, for example, said I Can't Go for That (No Can Do). I guess they're just, well, Out of Touch...
