Todd Rundgren - I Saw the Light
Something/Anything?, released in 1972, is Todd Rundgren's third solo album.


라디오를 듣다가 발견한 노래입니다.
주로 라디오를 통해서 새로운 음악을 접하는 편이에요.
새로운 음악이라고 해봤자 올드팝이 대부분이지요.
이 음악 역시 1972년에 발매 되었군요!

"Rundgren played every instrument (as well as sang every vocal) on the first three sides of the double LP, while a band accompanies him on the fourth."  -위키피디아

이 앨범은 두개의 LP로 발매 되었는데, 그중 3개의 면(side)을 혼자 녹음 했다고 합니다. 4번째 면만 밴드와 함께 녹음 했다네요.
"I Saw the Light "은 첫번째 면의 첫 곡.
그러니까 혼자서 모든 악기들을 연주하고 노래도 직접 부르며 녹음을 한거지요.
천재네요.

동영상을 찾아보기 전까지는 여자보컬이 부른 것이라고 생각했습니다.
긴 생머리의 여자보컬이요.
아니더군요. 머리 길이만 맞았네요.

Todd Rundgren
음악에 온힘을 쏟은 나머지 삐쩍 말라버린 남자.

가사를 음미해 봅시다~

It was late last night
I was feeling something wasn't right
There was not another soul in sight
Only you, only you
So we walked along,
though I knew there was something wrong
And a feeling hit me oh so strong about you
Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see
'Cause I saw the light in your eyes

Though we had our fling
I just never would suspect a thing
'Til that little bell began to ring in my head
In my head
But I tried to run,
though I knew it wouldn't help me none
'Cause I couldn't ever love no one, or so I said
But my feelings for you
were just something I never knew
'Til I saw the light in your eyes

But I love you best
It's not something that I say in jest
'Cause you're different, girl, from all the rest
In my eyes
And I ran out before but I won't do it anymore
Can't you see the light in my eyes
