Thank you very much for sharing this, the message was very clear, the content, pure. And yes, despite what others may say about your voice, it is good for it still tugs at the heart. Makes me think of my dad, who passed away. And of course your homage to Dan F. is also appreciated.
Hey man, you are selling youself short. You are really good man! I've been playing for about 23 years and I still am on the high end of intermediate. I have some vids on here if you would like to see simple stuff! lol! Should give you an appreciation for your talent! lol! Keep strummin' man. You have great "Hammering" ability as well. Hope to hear from ya! Chuck.
Well played - nice job! I remember doing this song on a 12-string back in the day - but on the six string it clears the way for the vocal to have more presence. Your voice is clear and subtle - very pleasant to listen to. Thanks for posting my newest favourite.
His music has been a part of my life for 35 years and will always be with me. It's just hard to come to terms with never seeing him in concert again, or never hearing new music from him. In these past three years, there was always hope. I so looked forward to the inspiration and insight he may have shared with us through his music as he aged, along with us.
So very, very sad to hear that the composer of this tune and many other great songs, died today from cancer at the age of 56. The world will miss Dan Fogelberg , but we are so lucky to still have his songs.
I know. I was right there with you. Looking very much forward to that acoustic tour that was not to be. Lately news about him had been very rare, and now my suspicions are realized. I echo your thoughts for Jean and the rest of Dan's family.
ohh. nice vocals and really really great guitar work. this is my fave folk song ever cause my dad used to sing this to me a lot when i was a kid. i'm a grown up now and i kinda have my own life now so i missed those days. thank you for posting this. :)
thats such a sweet song! i think your voice and guitar playing is good enough to be a professional, and if someday you have a concert, i surely would go!
Sometimes you see on things on YouTube and you say "That's amuzing". This is one that I say thank you for sharing. Thank you for sharing. We need to get together.
Thanx for this... one of my fav's... all those Dad songs make me sad... cat's and the cradle really hits home for me, i know i've said that already, lol.
Yeah, guess I have a theme going, don't I? This is just a great tune any way you slice it. I hope Dan Fogelberg is doing okay...I heard he was not well awhile ago.
Great job. Really nice playing! One of the best Fogelberg covers I've heard. Checked out a few of your other videos and enjoyed them as well. Love your guitar work. Will be back to hear the rest. I'm sure your Dad will love this one. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Cnullify probably feels that way about Geddy Lee (Rush's lead singer). Disregard him. He's an idiot.

This is a heartbreaking loss. I have long held hope that Dan was recovering and would one day share his music with us again. I am terribly saddened.
Thanks again for sharing his music.
My heart goes out to his family and friends. I wish them love and comfort.
