Five years ago I bought the “Super Hits of the ’70s” CD that features “Baby Come Back,” and the liner notes mentioned that many people still think this song is by H&O, which surprised me, but then I listened to the song for the hundredth time and I could definitely hear the similarities. A few months later I was in a grocery store in Atlanta, and when “Baby Come Back” came on the PA (Kroger’s “KRGR Radio,” to be exact) I overheard a guy ten feet away ask his wife, “Is this Hall & Oates?”

Great write-up, Jason, but, isn’t “Homer Alone” the episode where Marge goes to Rancho Relaxo and Maggie escapes from the house in hopes of finding her, which makes Homer panic and call the Missing Baby Hotline? The episode in which Homer and Marge lose custody of the children is from the seventh season, I think. (Yes, I know — baby come back, Robert go away.)

That video for “She’s Gone” is incredible — eyebrow-free Daryl Hall in his Ziggy Stardust-ripoff phase, nodding off during the song as if he’s high on smack and not even bothering to lip-sync some of his lines, and John Oates in a sleeveless tuxedo shirt. I love how the duo seem to be on the set of a public-access talk show. The appearance of “the devil” makes you realize they’re in on the joke, but I’m not sure if I laughed for the right reasons.

What Bee Gees songs did you have in mind?  We haven’t covered them in Mellow Gold, but you’ll find plenty of Bee Gees references in previous Chart Attacks…
