And it made all the difference in the song.” In another interview with NME Magazine, Hall also stated: “We try and take chances. She said, “drop that shit at the end and go, ‘She’s a maneater,’ and stop! And I said, ‘No, you’re crazy, that’s messed up.'” Then I thought about it, and I realized she was right. So we did that, and I played it for Sara Allen and sang it for her… “Oh here she comes / Watch out boy she’ll chew you up / Oh here she comes / She’s a maneater… and a…” I forget what the last line was. I said, “Well, the chords are interesting, but I think we should change the groove.” I changed it to that Motown kind of groove. In an interview with American Songwriter in 2009, Daryl Hall spoke about the track and its process: “John had written a prototype of “Maneater” he was banging it around with Edgar Winter. “Maneater” was written by Hall & Oates and Sara Allen, and was also produced by Hall & Oates.

MANEATER HALL AND OATES LYRICS SERIAL

Chart performance.Daryl Hall – lead vocals, backing vocals, keyboards.Hall & Oates later reflected this disturbing fact in the lyrics of the song "Diddy Doo Wop (I Hear the Voices)" on the album Voices. Several years later, Hall read an interview with serial killer David Berkowitz, in which he claimed that "Rich Girl" had motivated him to commit the notorious " Son of Sam" murders (although the song was not released until after the Son of Sam murders had already begun, casting doubts on that suggestion). "He can rely on the old man's money/he can rely on the old man's money/he's a rich guy." I thought that didn't sound right, so I changed it to "Rich Girl". I said, "This guy is out of his mind, but he doesn't have to worry about it because his father's gonna bail him out of any problems he gets in." So I sat down and wrote that chorus. I think he was involved with some kind of a fast-food chain. He came to our apartment, and he was acting sort of strange. "Rich Girl" was written about an old boyfriend of Sara 's from college that she was still friends with at the time. Hall elaborated on the song in an interview with American Songwriter: "But you can't write, 'You're a rich boy' in a song, so I changed it to a girl," Hall told Rolling Stone. In fact, the title character in the song is based on a spoiled heir to a fast-food chain who was an ex-boyfriend of Daryl Hall's girlfriend, Sara Allen. The song was rumored to be about the then-scandalous newspaper heiress Patty Hearst. The song's lyrics are about a spoiled girl who can rely on her parents' money to do whatever she wants. At the end of 1977, Billboard ranked it as the 23rd biggest hit of the year.
The single originally appeared on the 1976 album Bigger Than Both of Us. It debuted on the Billboard Top 40 on February 5, 1977, at number 38 and on March 26, 1977, it became their first of six number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100. " Rich Girl" is a song by Daryl Hall & John Oates. Daryl Hall & John Oates singles chronology
