Fifty Years Ago…

     …a musical prodigy named Todd Rundgren decided to stretch his wings further than he ever had before. This was the result:

I wanted to write you…
     …a beautiful, beautiful song
I wanted to write you…
     …a beautiful, beautiful song
A beautiful song
The kind that makes your memory
go sailing through the window
Like in a movie
And fly away, a million miles into space
And look down
And look down on the lights of the world
Like people were as nice as the sight of it all
Just you

I wanted to sing you…
     …a beautiful, beautiful song
I wanted to sing you…
     …a beautiful, beautiful song
But you know what a cynic I am
And my voice isn’t that good anyway
So all I can do…
     …is rave on…

    producer, writer, singer…  musician. “Runt” contributed so much to music, a lot of it unknown and surprising. “Can we still be friends” and “Love is the answer” (find the cover of that performed by Cindy Morgan and hear an angel sing)…  thank you. What a nice respite from the “news of the day”

    I don’t know, you tell me.
