2.5 out of 5

Highlights:
Out of Touch

Boy, Americans in 1984 spent a lot of money on really mediocre music, man.
Hall & Oates really found that sweet spot with Private Eyes, and I was hopeful that they would continue to push that American blue-eyed soul with deeper hooks and even more catchiness. I could not have been more wrong. This is...you know that this makes me think of? If Every cut was Phil Collins "Sussudio" over and over and no one noticed because it was just on in the background anyway.
There is actually a song here called "Going Through the Motions".
I'll say.
