"I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" is a song written by Parker McGee and recorded by England Dan & John Ford Coley from their 1976 album Nights Are Forever. It eventually peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for two weeks, behind Wild Cherry's "Play That Funky Music" and No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart.[2] Billboard ranked it as the No. 21 song for 1976.[3] It also reached No. 26 on the UK Singles Chart.
Record World called it a "sparkling tune with its extraordinary melodic hook."[4]
Dan Seals, the "England Dan" half of the duo, re-recorded the song in 1995 in an acoustic country music style for the album In a Quiet Room.
