Nazz - Hello It's Me

Hello, it's me
I've thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
There's something here that doesn't last too long
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine

Seeing you
Or seeing anything as much as I do
I take for granted that you're always there
I take for granted that you just don't care
Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through

It's important to me that you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change for me

Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

Sometimes I thought it wasn't so bad

Even from here the influence of Laura Nyro is evident in the compositions of Todd Rundgren

Interesting how this differs from Todd's later version.

I remember loving this song from the first time I heard it, when this original version by Nazz was a big hit. It's far better (IMHO) than Todd's solo version (and I do mean "solo", since he sang and played all the instruments on his "Something/Anything?" double album). Thanks so much for posting this powerful song from the late '60's!

Can't believe that I have never heard the original version until now......this is fantastic.....60's Pop! Seque right into other classic 60's pop - The Association or something like that......trippy, jazzy, eerie vocals....very cool

I only know the solo version. I was six. It was 1972

This was big when I was in the eighth grade (sob, I'm now 56). The bongo was the "hook," I always thought. I love BOTH versions of this, both Nazz and Todd Rundgren. Of course, he wrote the song and was in Nazz.

Love the Bongo thing in the beginning Great Tune. Should have been a National Hit beofre Todd's remake. The local Philly AM stations played it,but were guilty of playing an edted version that took away from it.

I love this song as much now as when it came out - much better then the up tempo remake. Thanks for posting it.

I like both versions of this classic but this one reminds me of a gorgeous girl I met one night in this bar I fell into in 69..This was playing when I first started talking to her..Memories :-)
