I have been a Dan Fogelberg fan since the early 1980s and i love this song.Dan Fogeberg has a heartbreaking voice.

[DENNISTHEMENACE48]

I AM ASHAMED TO SAY THAT I HAD NEVER HEARD OF DAN FOGELBERG. I HAD ADORED EMMYLOU FOR A DECADE. WHILE IN THE CAR THIS SONG CAME ON AND I ALMOST WENT OFF THE ROAD. I HAD TO PULL OVER AS MY EYES WERE FULL OF TEARS. NO ONE BUT EMMY COULD HAVE DONE THIS WITH DAN. IT IS A WORK OF ART.........DENNIS

[lovejd73]

Brilliant. One of the best!

[NearlyNativeNursery]

beautiful! Dan passing cut a whole in my heart that will never be repaired. So many of you true fans you know how his lyrics and dramatic music compositions struck us all like no other artists could. I listened to his Netherlands CD today five times as it is one of my favorite of his work. Sadly Dan never received the recognition he deserved as a stellar singer/song writer. In my opinion Dan was the very best with his mastering ways of blending deep thoughtful lyrics with his beautiful music.

Well I can sing a bit - would love to have sung with John or Dan and shared their

strength - who knows Emmy Lou may want to sing it with me.

Well we all have dreams ........ all of the days...

[bubble5648]

Does anyone know if Dan and EmmyLou ever performed this together for television? Man, I am going to have to go buy a new box of kleenex. What cherished treasures he left us with..

[HiVybe]

... depth & forever experience melts from these notes like timeless heavenly reflections...

[enilegnave21]

Coming back to re-listen. This song is so simple and yet so mysteriously takes us by the hand and leads us back to places in the heart that are sometimes too tender to live with day to day and not go insane from the sorrow.

When I listen, so much is remembered and so much tenderness fills my heart again.

Thanks for posting this and thanks to youtube for leaving it here to touch us again and again.

[goldenchance01]

@enilegnave21 ...wow, you hit it right on the head.....someone I knew a long time ago and we had a brief love, brought this Artist and my love of his music back into my life, not to mention the memories long forgotten of a more carefree time in my life;

[PocoPortillo]

This song makes me sad...I mean this in a good way,all the friends i had growing up,all the friends I've made along the way, and all the friends I've lost in death. Their voices take the pain out if it all.

[khodges111]

Wow these two are great. I miss Da and Love Emmy.

[MrBlazie59]

Quite possibly the two great voices we will eve hear.

[MrBlazie59]

Quite possibly the two voices we will eve hear.

[HiVybe]

...could one, at last, become too "grown-up" in ourselves and in this life to really see and really know the child-like truths that these harmonies expose...

[TheReach1]

It gets more meaningful every time I hear this song.........heavenly..!

[marekyla]

Timeless... :]

[c1991c1]

1974? No.

[TheReach1]

What I love about this song is not only the lyrics, the voices, and the melody.,..but the ability it has to take you back to all the memories of childhood ...the good ones!

[motherocean24]

How beautiful!!!!

[maama5]

Amazing...timeless

[4039213995]

What a beautiful blend of two, pure voices ~ I, too, am in tears as I listen to this treasure. Thank you for making it available for us to enjoy.

[whodaloo3]

Beautiful and thought evoking.

[evenstarr57]

AWESOME!!! had me 'spellbound' with goose pimples all over me that I couldn't shake off if I had tried. I LOVE IT !!! & all the memories it brings back to me.

[breffnipark]

ABSOLUTE CRACKER !!

[SuchisLifeIA]

Beautiful blend of voices!

[cvte2]

two of my all time favorites singing this beautiful song! pure heaven! thanks for posting.

[writingfool7734]

Beautiful, beautiful song. Tender; touching. Innocent.

I needed something kindly to listen to...

Thank you, Dan, for rescuing my heart from sadness again...

[Erma9]

Timeless beauty, Thank you so much!

[enilegnave21]

I am listening now to this song and I am in tears.

I am reminded that of these feelings that tell me that I have lost a friend... one who, through his writings, showed he knew me at my very core.

His poetry fills me with nostalgia, for not only the loss of him and his gifts, but also of things, times, places and people which have also gone from me and which will only return to me in the muted shadows of memory.

I miss you all.

[lillucy120]

@enilegnave21 Beautifully said.

[palerider7070]

What a "blue kentucky boy" I am for your passing Dan. Thank you for sharing this beautiful duet with the youtube community beggarsgame. Few artists display such a rich and varied palette with which to weave thier musical tapestry, how oh how could you have been taken from us. Love.

[veraduerga]

great lullaby; love to sing it to my grandchildren;

a sweet, comforting song; love to Dan and Emmylou and all the singers that have sung to comfort and hold us .

[TheLastNail]

Hadn't heard this in a while...what a great piece.

[Albertan1956]

Thanks for uploading what has to be one of the best female-male duets in all of musical history, on one of the best albums in history for all of Dan's and Emmylou's fans.

[jellyjukebox]

Truely two of the greatest voices to ever grace this planet. Wish they could have recorded another together.

[sandinyourshoes]

That was a beautiful comment. Dan's voice fits so well with Emmylou's. Fans of both of these gifted artists have so much to celebrate. This song just has the grace of a well-planned ballet.

[anglinthemtns]

Thanks for posting this song- been waiting for someone to do it. Happy Holidays.

[JMEagle101]

beautiful song! thanks for sharing!

[vanillaventures]

Fantastic song - thanks -

[dagny1207]

Oh...this is SO BEAUTIFU..Thanks:-)

[dagny1207]

sorry about the missing L..:-)

[nannerbj]

Beautiful - love this song and always have

[gregmpalumbo]

quietly/gracefully walked offstage...I meant to write

thx Donna for keeping Dan alive in our hearts.

[gregmpalumbo]

I read that in a 1982 concert in (Austin TX I think) Emmylou made a cameo for this song ...came on stage ...sang w/Dan...then curtsy'd...and quietly/garcefully walked offstage.

[reddirtgirl55]

A brilliant union. This is superb!

[crazy1689]

Absolutley wonderful. Thanks you Beggers.

[becster1964]

Another great post from Beggarsgame. I also like your comments on the song Alan. "Love we shared waits for us there...where our wishes forever reside", that line and the harmonies always got me. Boy, I wish we could somehow visit that parallel universe for a few days and be a kid again! Oh well, here's to Dan and the friends we shared. Thanks D. Hugs to all.

[beggarsgame]

To 2 of my favorite people (becster & lastnail). Glad you enjoyed :)

[TheLastNail]

That was always a special song for people and pets that passed on. I always had that same thought that somehow the children we were didn't just transform into adults but were somehow lost and living in a parallel universe. When I heard this song, like so many of Dan's, it struck a chord like "That's what I was thinking". Now that Jasper's 16, I kind of miss the little boy I walked through the woods with and played Mario and Yugio and those years just passed by so quickly--like the movie 'Big'
