Musical Interlude: I Can't Go For That (No Can Do) (1981)

"I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" was the 2nd single from Hall & Oates' 1981 album, "Private Eyes", and followed the title track to the top of the charts, displacing Olivia Newton-John's "Physical" from the #1 spot. "I Can't Go For That" also topped the R & B and adult contemporary charts, a rare hat trick for white artists at that time.

A few years later, while recording "We Are The World", the late Michael Jackson admitted to Daryl Hall that he'd lifted the base line from "That" for his #1 hit, "Billie Jean". Hall reportedly confided that seemingly everyone does it.

More than 20 years later, Simply Red took a few lyrics and used them in their hit, "Sunrise".
