    I need to know the name of this song and who sings it
    I have been trying for months to find out the name of this song and who sings it... it must be an early to mid 70's song by a group possibly... the lyrics go something like this:

    And I love you most
    I don't say that in jest
    Cause your not like the rest
    In my eyes
    In my eyes


    That is the best I can do with the lyrics... it is a smooth, groving song... help!!

    If you could remember a little more that would be helpful. Is it a soulful song or whiney white boy song?

    It's a whiney white boy song but I didn't want to post it that way... I can't remember much more of the words but it seems that every time I hear it, it stays in my head and it's driving me nuts... the other day I was at a department store and they were playing an acuostic version of it... aaargghh! I've tried calling my local radio station when they play it but have never been able to get through to ask the disc jockey what the name is or who sings it.

    The singers remind me of Steely Dan or maybe even a smooth Three Dog Night somewhere around there... not as good as either of those two bands but somewhere white like that... they may have even been a one hit wonder like King Harvest... come to think of it they sound more like King Harvest than Steely Dan.

    Todd Rundgren - I Saw The Light

    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 that 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
    Till 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
    Till I saw the light in your eyes
    But I love you best
    It's not something that I say in jest (ha ha)
    '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


    Is this familiar. Personally I don't care for Todd.

    Oh my goodness!! That's the one... I feel like Al Bundy when he had a song in his head and he finally got the name of it... he did a happy dance... I don't personally care for Todd Rundgren either but this song was driving me nuts cause it stuck in my head every time I heard it... THANK YOU... you don't go by BadPenny for nothing... you are bad... Great Job... now I can get this darn song out of my head.

    You have truly ended months of grueling headaches for me.

    Thanks again penny.
