The Atlantic Collection is a 1996 compilation album by Hall & Oates. While their 1977 compilation No Goodbyes was a collection of Hall & Oates' Atlantic Records recordings, this collection provides a more complete picture of that phase of Hall & Oates' history. This album contains the previously unreleased (but often bootlegged) track "Past Times Behind." It also has two rare songs "It's Uncanny" and "I Want to Know You for a Long Time," that were only released on the No Goodbyes album.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Someday We'll Know</span> 1999 single by New Radicals

"Someday We'll Know" is a song by the New Radicals. It was released in March 1999 as the second single off their album Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too (1998). Lyrically, the song explores the confusion over why a relationship ended. The group dissolved before the single's release, and as a result the song failed to match the success of the preceding single, "You Get What You Give", which had topped the charts in New Zealand and Canada and peaked within the top 5 in the United Kingdom. In contrast, "Someday We'll Know" became a top 40 hit only in Brazil where it made Number 38, and failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. The song is the group's second and final single, and has been covered by numerous artists, including Mandy Moore & Jon Foreman of Switchfoot and Hall & Oates.
