It bubbled up in February '69, hit number 71 on Billboard. Didn't stick around too long, but then It came back in January '70, climbin' a bit higher to 66! Canada digged it a bit more, hittin' 41 and 58 on two different runs. This tune's got legs, you hear? It's got staying power!
Now, let's get to the real heart of the matter – the lyrics!
Listen to this opening:
"Hello, it's meI've thought about us for a long, long timeMaybe I think too much, but something's wrongThere's something here that doesn't last too longMaybe I shouldn't think of you as mine"
He’s layin' it all on the line and straight from the heart. He's reachin' out, see? But there's doubt, a whole lotta doubt in his soul.
Rundgren is not sugar-coating nothin'. This relationship is on the rocks. He's admitting maybe he's overthinkin', maybe he's clingin' to somethin' that just ain't meant to be. "Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine" This is real life, real heartbreak.
"Hello It's Me" is the kind of tune you put on when you're feeling blue, when the rain's comin' down, and you're sittin' there thinkin' 'bout lost love. This tune's for all those lonely nights in your bedroom.
This song is a confession. It's a vulnerable moment caught on wax. And that is what makes it real, what makes it connect. So give it a spin, and remember Gail Nobles told ya so!
