    LYRICS:
    I was born this very morning
    And my brother he was also born
    In our first nine months we learned to speak
    And we have been listening since early morn
    I love no one but my brother
    Who spent those months with me
    I hate no one and no other has so far hated me
    But it isn't yet the afternoon
    And things are still to be
    And when evening comes we all will see
    I am not very old and I won't live long
    I was born this very morning singing this here song
    Now I feel the worst for older people
    Winding out their friendless hours alone
    Seeing lives like plays at final curtain
    Looking out to find everyone has gone home
    Is there something I can pray to?
    Some offering I can send?
    Or some ear that I can play to, to help him find a friend?
    And maybe then redeem myself to keep me from that end
    For the evening comes and who knows when
    Oh, my brother, where is our mother?
    Is there no other to live together
    To be our lover?

    One of Todd's best but less well known early 'prog' songs.

    Lost my brother to suicide in 2001, this song resonates a grief that I can not put in words and yet mr. rundgren has...

    Masterpiece by a Top Notch artist

    A top notch artist, Todd. And a band of top notch musicians. The rhythm section of Tony Sales and Hunt Sales is adding so much to what Todd's created. Listen for the bass, and then to the drums and see how Todd's other instruments and his vocals connect. How they are united by the Sales' unity. And the brothers can pretty rowdy with the right rock tunes. BTW, ever hear of the "Soupy Sales Show" on TV? -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA

    The intro reminds me of the orchestral strings heard at the end of the song Purple rain

      Good spot GSalvadoreno17. In fact this Todd Rundgren's tune was recorded 15 years before Purple Rain. Also, guitar solo sound in Purple Rain is inspired by Todd Rundgren's psychedelic era playing. In a few words, Todd was an inspiration for Prince.

      Prince is a well known Todd fan. I like that people notice the touches in Prince's music!
