Had the 'Faithful' album on vinyl way back then, wore it thin, it was never off the turntable. Saw and met Todd post-gig at Manchester Academy in '94 when he was on the 'Interactive Evening with Todd Rundgren' tour, playing solo in a specially designed and constructed pod, encircled by keyboards and guitars. Myself and 3 mates drove 9 hours down from Scotland for the gig, then drove straight back up after we'd met him outdoors/backstage. He was a gentleman, patiently answering many curious questions, signing autographs etc. Still regularly listen to Rundgren & Utopia stuff, which is on all 4 of my MP3 players, most recent fixation has been 'Afterlife' from his brilliant Liars album. Way too much to say and discuss about Todd, almost impossible to nail his music and subtle influence. From a lifetime, and unashamed Todd freak. 🎧
I bought this LP in 1976. Unlike previous Todd LPs, it did not have a lyric sheet. Here sit I, 45 years later, seeing the lyric for the first time! I always thought it was "make the night unwind." LOL! Thanks!
@@MsBlueRajah I thought it was night unwind too, but knot unwind makes more sense. The song is about the uncertainty in each about the other, i.e. the "knot".
Been listening to this cat since I was 13, from Runt through Utopia. I was hooked on moogs and arps at an early age. Todd took me to never land when I was so young and everything was new. Just rediscovering him for the past few days. I’ve listened to this same old Cliche song a dozen times today. I never do that! Thanks Todd. You’re helping me through it all bro.
Todd is the best! He is nominated for the 2020 R&R Hall Of Fame and he deserves to be in there! You can vote for him daily until Jan.10/20. New this year, to cast a ballot in the official Klipsch Audio Fan Vote, you can search “Rock Hall Fan Vote” or the word “Vote” with any Nominee name on Google to cast your ballot.
@@jackmasterson6323John Siegel the bass player on this track, funny interesting fact, this John Siegler co wrote the pokemon theme (gotta catch em all!)
I had the album. Also the incredible double album Something /Anything which was watermark accomplishment of a singer /songwriter play in ng all instruments

Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Well Said... Best 9 hours you've ever spent!!!
This takes me back to my college years with ny sweetheart, Forever in my heart and tender memories.
Afterlife is a pretty well known tune in Brazil after a famous radio program took it as its intro theme or something.
Pure Todd Rundgren magic.
I've loved this man since I was a young teenage girl..mwah!!⚘

I would agree that it's probably night rather than knot

As only todd can do my friend .
Right On Brother... Hope you get through it all...All Things must pass😉and this too shall pass!!!
Hello True Wizard, I Am Der Wizard...
My heart swells with glad tidings for all every time I hear this wonderful song...
Be well my friend...
A brilliant song...
Todd is, IMHO, the most cerebral of rock stars....
I agree, He is amazing.
Todd is Godd
i gotta add my 'I've loved all Todd Rundgren music' somewhere, so here it is. Very human at its essences.
A song that is not as it's title would suggest.
Thank you Jim Hoover, there are no words. Miss you more than all the rest. TY for Todd
Bloody good tune that.
And let's not forget his marvelous early work with Nazz. Todd is Upper Darby PA's finest.

I had this album. Catchy nice melody.
Trick bass line love it !
That bass line gives a whole new level to this already extraordinary song. Anyone know who it is? Is it Todd?
John Siegler is the bass player on this track.

Something Anything double album was a masterpiece.
There's a reason Todd rhymes with God.
