    LYRICS:
    Don't you ever listen?
    Don't you ever learn?
    The hand may find you
    It's time to take a turn
    You think this life is something strange
    You're ready for another change
    But don't you ever learn?
    Don't you ever listen?
    Don't you ever learn?
    The world is on fire
    Your body doesn't burn
    Kill yourself before receiving
    Something out of all this breathing
    Don't you ever learn?

    From what I’ve learned, Todd abhors Social media, but I do hope he realises that us 60+ adored his works in the ‘70’s. I was truly inspired by & adored the key in which he sang. From my 20’s he was IT,
    Thank you, Todd, I’ve always been enraptured by your beautiful voice
    God bless.
    (thanks for upping the track of one of the many Todd albums I’ve got in my collection).

    I’ve listened to this song many hundreds of times the last 45 years and never tire of it. It is so very relevant still! Possibly his best piece of music of his library of songs. Takes me higher every time I listen to it, wish it went on much longer than just 6 minutes!🤙🏼😎👌🤘🏼

    Still my all time favorite Todd song. I was 14 when this came out. I just identified with this so much. Yes,I was terribly misunderstood at that age,but thank God as I look back now. I didn't have a father around, but Todd helped me make sense of the world. I'm forever grateful to him for his little plastic waffles!!

    I've loved this man's music since I was a teen.
    46 years later...I've just kind of looked him up again..at 61 I am still as in love with this man's music as I was when I was just a young teen.
    In fact I listen now and i think "damn I had good taste and I was on to something" Lol, but seriously
    He is a musical genius and I'm so glad I am on this earth the same time he is.

    I was introduced to this marvellous musician mid ‘70’s by a good girlfriend of mine, Evelyn, since hearing his magical voice I was instantly struck, key, harmonies & his voice; just magical. I was 20 yrs. old then and 40 odd years later, still entranced.
    God bless you for ALL your work my 20th Century Mozart.

    Another favorite of mine ! When the chords arrive, after the bizarre intro, it always give me the same feeling as when I see the sun peak over the horizon at dawn, or when the clouds clear and it suddenly sends its rays through. A sense of peacefulness and genuine beauty.

    I still have this LP on vinyl! I was so LOST in Todd Rundgren in the '70's and early '80's! I gave him a scrolled original drawing while he was performing on stage at the TCC (Tucson) singing "Rock Love"...never had heard this song before and the friends with me thought he was saying my name, "Rhonda"

    Joni was probably the only other artist doing as much at the time with layers and layers of vocals, and Todd and she presaged (and inspired) Prince to raise the bar yet again for singleminded creativity, exploiting all of the tools available to realize their vision, as Todd did so deftly. Of the three genii, Todd is the only one still touring and creating on this plane, sadly
