off the album RASPBERRIES.

Wally Bryson: I was living at my sister's house in Euclid, Ohio and I wrote the lyrics to "I saw the light" and "With you in my life". Eric and I then collaborated on the way to rehearsal and he had some music and we just put it together that way.

I Saw The Light

(Wally Bryson/Eric Carmen)

Good friends

Book ends

Solitaire for two

Till she was leaving

I never really knew

When I looked in her eyes

I saw the light

I realized all along it was her

When I looked in her eyes

I saw the light

I realized

There's a knock on the door

Then you're home forever more

And now that you're here

There is nothing to fear

When I looked in her eyes

I saw the light

I realized all along it was her

When I looked in her eyes

I saw the light

I realized all along it was her

When I looked in her eyes

I saw the light

I realized all along it was her

Shame the Raspberries remain an unfairly neglected band for they had great melodies in their songs!

Okay, so I now hear what Thom Yorke has been trying to emulate.

it was released around the time of Rundgren's "I Saw the Light" and so didn't have a chance. It's a good song, well-constructed by Carmen as usual, with those classical piano touches and Beatle-y vocals. Eric Carmen was very talented.

This was obviously heavily influenced by a song on Badfinger's first album called "Beautiful And Blue." Same tempo and descending bass line in their respective choruses.

A Emitt Rhodes rip off track. How orginal were the Raspberries, very Anglo-Rock guys

Yes, this melody is perfect. Like songs written by Brian Wilson. Amazing.

These guys were great Beatles imitators, but somehow they were original and clever enough to pull it off.

Astonishing that this was not a hit, or even a single. Has one of the most gorgeous melodies you could ever hope to hear.
