I saw Todd Rundgren back in the day. It's worth being old now to have been young back then.

This song really defines a sense of time, a sense of place and a sense of an era. I have so many good memories of this song, driving home on a hot, summer night. Riding in the back seat with the entire car bathed in the gentle incandescent light of the instrument panel…and then drifting off to sleep. I also think of That 70’s Show with Eric and Donna sitting on the hood of the VistaCruiser. Just a great, great song that hits all the feels from a special time in my life.

He's such an amazing songwriter. He and Carol King almost joined at the hip in that ability.

[danettewelborn]

Epic singer. Loved him in the 70's and still do.

[AbbyNormal]

Say a little prayer for Todd Rundgren. He's fighting cancer.

[DonaldWebber-ov]

One of the most underrated talents in rock...that song is so timeless

[StephanieJeanne]

This is such a perfectly bittersweet song. Beyond the words, Todd's voice...I don’t know, just the right tone for this. He wrote a great song!😔💜

I love this performance to tears, this song is a 70's ultimate favorite!

My Goodness I was only 12 at the time of this show, Too young to stay up on Friday Nights to watch it . Todd in the Glam look of the day, You don't realize how short life is until 50 years Zips by .

Todd's group Nazz had the original version of "Hello, It's Me" in 1968 which featured harmonies by the group but hands down Todd's solo version from 1973 is the ultimate one and a classic all the way.

One of the most underrated great artists of all times

[dwaynewladyka]

Such a great song. One of the classics from the 1970s. I saw Todd Rundgren live with Ringo Starr & His All Starr Band. Todd Rundgren is in my music collection too. What incredible artists and bands we had in the 1970s. Cheers! ✌️

This song still stands the test of time. What a wonderful performance from a remarkable talent.

[TheKyPerson]

Great song and Todd Rundgren is one of the great producers in rock.

[ColleyatFlak]

Love that the date of telecast is shown.

[djranman]

Very underrated talent and one of the best soft rock songs in history that doesn't get enough credit. This was such a great era to be alive 💯

[daviegriffin]

*The Isley Brothers made this wonderful piece of songwriting into an R&B Soul CLASSIC **_Thanks to Mr. Rundgren_** & Cheers from **#CancúnMéxico* 💙🤘🏽🇲🇽

Hard to believe this song came out 50 years ago.

[catsofsherman]

This is what was happening on my fourth birthday. I wish I had been born 20 years earlier.

Beautiful song, beautiful voice. ❤
Real music classes teaching classical music theory, instrumental, etc, must be brought back to the schools. It shows that it's sorely missing in our culture.
