Icarus Ascending

[vintagegarden]

Beautiful video-thank you! :) You might want to know that the lyrics for this song were chosen for the Dan Fogelberg memorial in Dan's hometown of Peoria, Illinois. The unveiling ceremony was this past Saturday, August 28, 2010. The other lyrics/songs for the memorial were Part of the Plan and River of Souls. Dan had so many great songs, but as you posted, this song was very special to him.

Missing you Dan....

That was beautiful! I really loved your photo at 3.05! I read your info! Are you an artist? What's your medium? :)

[fantail321]

Isn't this song great? Unfortunately the photos went sort of blurry on uploading. I do like photography and I also draw and paint. It's just a hobby though because I don't have the courage of Icarus!

[SonnyLees]

Yes I really enjoyed the music, it's relaxing with the beautiful photos! :) Hey have you thought of posting a slide show of your drawings and paintings! I'd love to see them! :) I have a few friends that are artists here on you-tube! Would you like to meet some of them?

I don't know who Icarus is? Why don't you have the courage to persue your passion? :)

[fantail321]

Maybe someday!

When you compare the crap that is given as music today compared to the visions created by Dan and others it is no wonder we have devolved into a nation of lesser people.

G'day Danfans!  Thanks again everyone for watching the video and for your thoughtful comments :-)

Wow, FT- Beautiful! In the past, I (naively) thought I was Dan's biggest fan. Obviously not true, but it's not a contest (of course), it's a (still-) GROWING FAMILY of people who love this wonderful, gentle, musical joy named Dan Fogelberg. We all were robbed of his presence in this world and I believe the hearts of his true fans won't ever really, fully heal. Miss you much, Dan. We never met, but thanks for letting me get to know you.

(And THANK YOU AGAIN FANTAIL!)

I love your description of Dan as a musical joy! Great image! He is still my hero! We all miss you, Dan! I hope, somehow, you know!

It's great that there are songs of Dan's in his later work here on the tube.He wrote awesome melodies!I fully get lost into them.Full Circle is a wonderful album,which I listen to quite frequently.The more I listen the more I really love it.For me, he could write and sing the phone book as for I was concerned.Thanks again.

Beautiful - just like Dan and this song!

[iluvsantafe]

beggarsgame, I'll just have to agree with you on this one!

[lessonslearned85]
