"Sara Smile" is a single by Hall & Oates released as the first single from their album Daryl Hall & John Oates in 1976. The song was the group's first Top 10 hit in the US, reaching number four.
Daryl Hall wrote the song for his girlfriend, Sara Allen, and had a cover featuring Hall and Oates overly made-up to the point where they (especially Hall, who had long hair then) looked like women. On an interview with Hall & Oates on VH1's Behind the Music, Hall looked like "the girl he always wanted to go out with" on the cover.
