"I saw The Light"- Terry Hall

[maxeythecat]

WOW. Never in a million years would I have imagined our Terry pulling out the odd chestnut like THIS. Completely out of left field considering his usual style, but admirably done.

[mti58312]

Love that chick on keyboards and her vocals too. Angelic voice. Guitar solo was good also.

[bjorn2run]

I don't watch videos with commercials.

Jerry Sadowitz who appeared in Terry Hall's Terry Blair&Anouchka's video of Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes, complained that this video infringed his copyright,

I removed Jerry and replace his appearance with graphic animation. It's taken 5 months!

Although angry with Jerry, I am also grateful because, I would have never learned Adobe After Effects and animation.

Jerry's replaced by a number of colourful characters! Marc Bolan even makes an appearance! Bet he won't complain??!

Terry Terry the Dingleberry...

[Bassmusician42]

Great Job Terry and the band!!!

[MELLSBAD]

Not much of a frontman. The backing band is awesome and really makes the song.

[twebb63]

Nice...the drum beat changes the song from 2/4 to cut time.

[rabbitntigger]

wow!! good singing of one of fav todd songs!! not easy to sing, good job!! i like it a lot!!

[crieff1sand2s]

good job Terry

[wadamw99]

AWESOME! I am a big fan of Todd Rundrgren's classic tune, and only Terry Hall's smooth voice combined with his simple and pure delivery could have pulled it off. Thanks for posting this gem!

[Xpand09]

i am terry hall. thankyou for all the compliments and support

[jamiefors]

This is great, think Terry has one of those voices that he can just sing anything and make it sound good.......cheers for posting fella

[hardlines4]

Well of course nothing is as good as the originial but this guy did a DAMN good job on this classic!!!

[RAinteractive]

I've been a Toddhead for over 30 years - nothing can match him,, but this is a lovely touchingly sung version by a Brit musician. Thanks Terry and hope everyone gets tickets for AWATS 2010 London and Amsterdam :)

[naturaltoby]

I think this is as good as Todd's LIVE versions, but certainly not as meaningful as Todd's performances or even close to the studio version.

[fisherappliance]

Very cool.

[skipper8257]

He didn't kill this song. Nice job Terry.

[intrntnlnois]

Well judging from when he recorded this song on album this video is from around '97 or '98.

[2manystrats]

This has to be at least 25 years old. Terry was born in 1959, so he's 50 now. Anyway, still not bad.

[2manystrats]

Not bad at all !!!!!

[petrusaloisius]

I reaally like this song although my favorite mausic is new wave newe romantic, so its nice to see this song sung by a an artist who mostly sings a totaly different music style sound. great

[jenny5466]

Fantastic!!

[baz1617]

Who is this guy and why is he killing a todd song?

[safetygrass]

That's Terry Hall from The Specials and Fun Boy 3.  He wrote "Our Lips are Sealed" with Jane Wiedlin from the Go Gos. He did a fine version of this song... Todd likes it.

[beowulven]

Legend

[modman1960]

terry halls dads name was terry as well he used to live in swan lane hillfields coventry his dad used to drink in the cottage in hillfields

[steinar123]

Great cover version of this classic Todd Rundgren song.

A completely different style than the Specials had. I think I have to check out more of this guy. eclectism always make me interested

[mikibig]

he makes me feel great. just i discovered him, for my shame.

[sissyfuss]

i met terry a couple of times and he's a very modest man. he's had an enormous influence on many artists today. esp damon albarn who is a huge fan. terry has produced some fantastic material in every band he's been involved with. laugh was a superb album. i just hope he keeps going.

[tabhunter1]

i just wise he would do more music like this album laugh

[smacksaw]

Hilarious...that's great. He really does have an eclectic style. Pity he's never really broken with his solo stuff like he did with The Specials. If not for YouTube I fear much of this would all be lost to obscurity.

[EnidBlytonne]

I can't get over how great this band sound live and that guitar sound is beautiful.

[EnidBlytonne]

His voice suits the song really well. Is this a very old track? He looks young here.

[nimbelugen]

amazing...he is incredible...first song by Mood Six

[StrandedBoat]

wheres the original video clip? can someone upload please.

[StrandedBoat]

the first the i saw this video i thought i was in heaven. its cool. i love it!

[mickdee]

Imagine the money this guy would make if he reformed the specials. It would fill any stadium in the country twice over....Genius

[charleyhellfire]

Best thing he's ever done, not as good as Mr.Rundgren though.

[leschampkin]

this song was worthy of getting to a decent number in the charts!!!Terry solo stuff pretty good, the LP Home really good
