Todd's originals have been amazingly eclectic. He was never content to just do soft rock, but the public pigeonholed him & wasn't interested in the other facets of his talent. He's done hard rock, progressive rock, musical satire, experimental electronic music, a capella, even a cover of a tune from a Gilbert & Sullivan operetta.

When I was leaving San Diego after finishing Marine Corps boot camp in 1979. I sat between these guys on the flight home. They introduced themselves as Dan and John and talked about how proud they were that I had stepped up to serve my country. During the flight, people stopped to ask them for autographs. It was a bit embarrassing because I had no idea who they were. As I was waiting to get off the plane. I asked a flight attendant who they were. I couldn't believe it. They were, England 'Dan' and 'John' Ford Coley. And were just regular people who made the conversation about me. Looking back I wonder if they were relieved that I didn't know them and were glad they didn't have to endure another awe struck fan gushing all over them for several hours. Quite the memory for this small town, Michigan kid.

Great duo, They had several Big Hits, then Dan went on to become a country music star with many Big Hits. "Nights Are Forever Without You", On Dan's own "You Still Move Me" is made for the two of you!!!! "Rage On", "Meet Me in Montana" With Marie Osmond is another.

In the '80s, England Dan had some Solo success, but he went by his real name instead of the England Dan nickname give to him by his brother. For one of his hits as Dan Seals, he did a duet with Marie Osmond called "Meet Me in Montana."

yup,, 1979. Very distinct sound and relevant song then and now.

Ok, their authentic appreciation of this song made me cry. I this subscribed.

I love them so much since the seventies and this song just brings tears to my eyes because every single word is true I love it it's all. About love and not to be gruesome But I asked my daughter to play this when I passed away

We all could use a little more Love; always loved this song! Still so relevant to the world now; so uplifting! Todd Rundgren wrote this song decades ago & these 2 guys had a hit with it. England Dan & John Ford Coley were an American soft rock duo composed of Danny Wayland "England Dan" Seals and John Edward "John Ford" Coley, active throughout the 1970s. Native Texans, they are best known for their 1976 single "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight", a No. 2 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and a No. 1 Adult Contemporary hit. After they disbanded, Seals began performing as Dan Seals and launched a country music career through the 1980s which produced 11 No. 1 country hits. Seals was the younger brother of Jim Seals of the 1970s soft rock duo Seals and Crofts. Dan's childhood nickname, given to him by his brother Jim, was "England Dan" because he was a fan of English rock band The Beatles. There was no girl doing the falsettos; that was John Ford Coley. RIP Dan Seals.

Great song written by Todd Rundgren and great reaction. I love Dan Seals voice and over 40 songs of England Dan's & John Ford Coley's. They made so much great music together

we need this song more than ever in today's world with all the conflicts going on, Love is definitely the answer.

Another classic by these two. Soft 70's pop at its finest. The 70's produced some of the best soft rock songs.

One of my favorites of the 70’s

This was a song we played a lot in my church youth group! Because... Love is the answer! There is a lyric in the song that says... "Ask the man in your heart for the answers"

Omg. I am in tears. This was so big when i was 10 in 1977

Wonderful, feel good song.

One of the best soft rock group of the 70’s. Dan Seals went on and had many hits on the country charts. Sadly he passed way too soon.

One of the greatest soft rock songs for sure.

Great choice! Written by Todd Rundgren and originally recorded by Todd with his band Utopia, but this was the hit version and the one everyone remembers. One of *THE* best pop songs of 1979 (along with the Doobies' "What a Fool Believes"). Like you guys, I love how the song builds during the bridge, until they're wailing like the Righteous Brothers.

One of my favorite oldies!

I highly recommend another Todd Rundgren song that he actually recorded himself called "I Saw the Light". It got huge airplay in about '74, around the time of "Hello It's Me". It has great lyrics and Amber will love it.

Still gives me chills

For some good 60-70's soft rock, you'd like "Fresh Air" by Quicksilver Messenger Service. Have a Terrific Tuesday!!

I was 12 years old in 1979 when this song came out. I grew up listening all this.
