He said "I hate being called by my last name, it reminds me of gym class: 'Hey Hall.'" And so we said, we are two individuals working together, because we really started that way — when we first started playing together nosotros hadn't written any songs together. I had written a bunch of songs and he had written a bunch of songs and he said "Look, you lot play your songs and I'll play behind you," and Daryl would play his songs and I'll play guitar. And that was our working relationship — two guys, 2 songwriters working with each other. And we didn't fifty-fifty sing together and we actually still don't sing together very oft, it's just never been something we ever wanted to exercise. We didn't want to be the Everly Brothers, or Loggins & Messina, or any.
