glowingember Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Haven't heard Moonlight Shadow for a while. TksThis is so 80s - the time when i start to listen to music more intensively. :-)And Hall & Oates used to be doing all the right things in the charts then.Here's a rare moment when Oates sang the lead. and I first heard Everytime you go away, though made popular by Paul Young, sung by Darly Hall.
