Daryl Hall

"John and I did not have a creative relationship for decades," he explains.

He can't go for that anymore.

Recently filed lawsuit claiming a breach of contract pits long-time partners against one another.

Hall says his bandmate tried to "ambush" him with a catalog sale in an attempt to "cause me the maximum amount of harm."

Hall obtained a temporary restraining order against Oates earlier this month.

He's said "it's very annoying to be a duo."

I saw you, and you saw me. And it wasn't my finest moment.

The Van Halen star also credited Hall & Oates with inspiring his band's biggest hit.
