These kids singing a classic. If they had lived back then like a lot of us they would realize how big this song was on radio

never gets old...the song and Todd.

I'm floored by the fact he can still hit those notes.

charles mann- Amen!!

I just couldn’t stop smiling!

I love how this song starts on an uneven tempo and is struggling and then Todd steps in and turns this into a “rock” song and elevates all the musicians around him…Genius!

As a fan since the early 70's (I'm old to most of you :) ) it doesn't get any better, and this only proves that that great voice hasn't left him, OMG, THANK YOU for posting this!!!

Totally agree. I'm 59 and this has been one of my top 5 favorite songs since it came out in 1972.

The genius in action🏈

For those who criticize this performance, keep in mind this was done with students - young people within a performing arts school at Notre Dame. These young folks have yet to be seasoned pros like Todd, whom I give major-league props for being involved in the education of our youth. So let's get off the "music critic" bullshit and let's appreciate this for what it is - Todd showing our young folks the importance of creative music. Sure as hell hope it will beat the garbage that we hear now in the commercial landscape.

Words can not express Todd's genius work he shows in all of music. God gave the music world Todd to let us mortals know what & how to shoot for musical perfection

What a great performer! There is no lip syncing here...just real music.

In high school I was aware of Todd, back in the early 70's. Lived in Long Island. A good friend saw him in concert. He was blown away, just incredible. I think I appreciate him more now than ever. Thanks for posting.

The best. Most underrated performer

I love Todd, love how he stepped in as a father for Steven Tyler’s daughter when she was a baby. She Eve says Todd is her dad

I love that he continues to inspire people through his music.

How lovely…the voice and the gap toothed smile l have crushed on for so many years..some things should never end..🇨🇦

A true legend I love the way the choir is so happy to be singing with Todd what a fantastic memory they will have forever love this x

Having lived in NYC and LA for a decade each, I don't get star struck. However, if ever cross paths with this man, I'm probably going to go straight into the ugly cry. He has written some of my lifelong favorite songs. I think he must have one of the purest hearts of any human on this planet.

He’s still got it

A generational song

Todd is a man who loves his job.

Got into Todd's music recently...what took me so long???

I love this song. All 297 chords.

What an artist! So well done.

What a performer - each and every time he sings this song it seems fresh as though he wrote it yesterday.

This was SO great. Great student vibes, and Mr. Rundgren was fantastic!

I hope everyone enjoyed Todd and this song, I sure did!

Loved the wink at 3:29! Great line! Great singer!

Took my girl to her first 'adult' gig, to see Todd at the Manchester Ritz, when she was sixteen. She's just completed her music degree at BIMM Manchester... the man is an inspiration to all whose path he crosses (with a serious interest in shredding the musical envelope).

Sometimes a special song of the past, is better left in the original state in which you found it. ⌛️ A very gifted songwriter/composer without a doubt!

ALWAYS A PHENOMENAL MUSICAL GENIUS NO MATTER WHERE HE SHOWS UP AND PERFORMS. His voice is still strong and clear. Great music endures!!!

A high school classmate could play Todd in a movie. He has spent his entire adult life in the music industry. I feel certain that at some point they have met. I wish I could have been there.

Teaching children! 👌 Awesome!
