NEW 📀 Hello It's Me - Todd Rundgren {Stereo} 1973

1973-74......#5 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #2 U.S. Cash Box Top 100, #17 Canada
Original video edited and remastered with HQ stereo sound.
"Hello It's Me" is a song written by American musician Todd Rundgren. It was the first song he wrote, and was recorded by his group Nazz as a slow ballad, released as the B-side of the band's first single, "Open My Eyes", in 1968. A mid-tempo version of "Hello It's Me", recorded for Rundgren's 1972 solo album Something/Anything?, was issued as a single in 1973, reaching No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
"Hello It's Me" was the first song written by Todd Rundgren. Written in 1967 as a slow ballad about the breakup of a relationship, it was released in October 1968 as the B-side of his band Nazz's debut single "Open My Eyes", and included on the debut album Nazz (1968). Although released as a B-side, it was picked up in preference to the A-side by Boston radio station WMEX, where it rose to No. 1, and was subsequently picked up by other stations. It entered the Billboard chart in February 1969, peaking at number 71, and re-entered the charts the following January, this time peaking at number 66. In Canada, it ranked number 41 in March 1969, and number 58 in February 1970.
Rundgren's songs in this early phase of his career were heavily influenced by the work of Laura Nyro, but in a 2005 interview he revealed that the basic structure of the song was adapted from the introduction of a Jimmy Smith recording:
...the main influence for Hello It's Me was an eight bar intro that Jimmy Smith played on a recording of When Johnny Comes Marching Home. He had this whole sort of block chord thing that he did to set up the intro of the song. I tried to capture those changes, and those changes became what are the changes underneath Hello It's Me. I then had to come up with melody and words, but the changes are actually almost lifted literally from something that was, from Jimmy Smith's standpoint, a throwaway.
- Todd Rundgren, puremusic.com
Rundgren recorded a more midtempo version of "Hello It's Me" for his 1972 solo album Something/Anything? It was released twice as a single, with the second issue in 1973 becoming Rundgren's only top ten pop hit, reaching No. 5 on the Hot 100. It also reached No. 17 on the Adult Contemporary chart.

The 70s....when a man could wear a butterfly on both of his eyes and no one said anything, just enjoyed the music.

[@MrRondonmon]

They did that "Glam Rock Look" for a different reason. Back in the day if you did not sell albums you wouldn't be around long, so if they did a show, they wanted to be remembered, that outfit was sketched into peoples memories, so they bought the albums because they remembered the name, the outfits, the glam rockers, that why KISS did what they did. Its about EYES ON. Now-a-days with the internet people can become world famous in minutes. Different time. They were nit doing it to be feminine, or most weren't, save for a few like Boy George who really wasn't that good anyway.

[@ssethsamm]

@@MrRondonmon​​⁠ they dress like that because they liked how they looked. They weren’t all just “trying to sell records.” The look originated from the fact that a lot of those bands liked looking like that. It just happened to be a feminine look. It wasn’t a big deal except to people who hate it when men dress feminine, but that’s their problem. Also Boy George is great, always has been, and they can look however they want, it shouldn’t bother anyone.

I think about this topic sometimes and how it relates to an episode of The Twilight Zone in which a guy in the Sixties longs for the simpler life of the Twenties or maybe it was an earlier time. I think there was a lot of stress in the Seventies, but we only remember the good parts. I was in my teens in the Seventies.

[@TheBrockwellBroadcastNetwork]

@@TighelanderII I think one reason people think of it as being less stressful was how our relationship with media was different. Nightly news, not a 24 hour cycle. A focus on nationalistic topics rather than world events. Music and entertainment being dolled out by fewer sources, so that there was a baseline of pop culture that most people knew and related to (of course there were always those who would seek out more sources). But it seems like when the structure of society was more simple and less individualistic that we look back at it as being less stressful. Course, I could always be wrong.

“Something Anything”, the costumes, the makeup, the colored hair, concerts at central park, this is the Todd R we all know and love.

[@tonyedward6909]

A masterpiece. Touches the soul. Brings back so many memories as a young man, both happy and sad, thanks

[@davyanonymous9674]

Same here.

The music was great but the freaky costume added absolutely nothing to the performance. The money would have been much better spent on a dentist.

3 Minutes and 58 seconds of Hello It’s Me and I’m time traveling back to the 70’s. No other song or voice can evoke those beautiful memories for me like Todd Rundgren can. Forever my favorite! Thank you Todd.❤

This song really makes me smile. My brother introduced me to Todd Rundgren's music when he was still in Utopia. I've liked him ever since. I'll never forget about 32 years ago, I was putting my 4 year old niece to bed. I sang to her, "Hello, it's me🎶" to which my niece sang back, " 🎶 Hello, I'm your Mini-Me!" We both giggled together. My special nickname for her was Mini-Me because she looked more like me than her parents, lol! I'm still the only one to call her that, even though she's the same height as me now, lol! She'll always be my Mini-Me! Every time I hear this song, I think of her. So hard to believe she's all grown up now.

Oh Yes!!!

[@pameladevereux4294]

An ethereal beauty.

[@irvingberlin-o8h]

I love that I grew up in a time when artists could be homely with jacked up teeth and average bodies and the emphasis was on their talents and ability to play an actual instrument.
