Daryl Hall & John Oates – Possession Obsession (US 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

“Possession Obsession” was the fourth single taken from the twelfth studio album “Big Bam Boom” by Daryl Hall & John Oates. The song was a departure from their typical sound with lead vocals by John Oates instead of Daryl Hall.

The music video was directed by Bob Giraldi, who also did Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” and Pat Benatar’s “Love Is A Battlefield.” It stars John Oates as a cab driver in New York City. At one point, we see two men holding hands in the back of the cab, which is something rarely seen on TV at the time.

“Possession Obsession” peaked at #30 on the Billboard Hot 100 on June 6, 1985, after spending twelve weeks on the survey. The song also reached #42 on the Canadian singles chart.

Track A2 is a “Dub Mix” but is not listed in the sleeve or record labels.
