"A very cinematic piece about courting my first wife. A Sothern Belle if ever there was one. Tom Scott played great clarinet." (Dan Fogelberg)
Sweet Magnolia ~ Dan Fogelberg from 1984 "Windows And Walls" Album, also included in Portrait: The Music of Dan Fogelberg From 1972-1997 (Disc 2).
This is a special request by a beautiful southern belle Mariaglenn and Irving (her husband). The song & most of the beautiful images were chosen by Maria. Magnolia is used to call a pretty girl raised in the south. We would like to dedicate this video to all Dan Fans. Maria, thank you for collecting the beautiful images of the southern theme and your friendship! Irving & Maria, since you've asked, Sweet Magnolia is done especially for you, enjoy!

Sweet Magnolia (And The Traveling Salesman) (Lyrics)

Two hearts throwing off sparks
Young and in love with our freedom
Moonlight, the soft southern nights
We were both ripe to fall
Well I was out on my own
Playing for all who would listen
And you were as free as a bird
Flying from nest to nest
But somewhere our eyes met
And our hands reached out
And we felt a kindred spirit
And as our faces touched
I could feel the fire
And needed so to just be near it
Oh lord, those moments we soared
Borne on the wings of our passion
It seemed then like they'd never end
But times like that always must '
Cause then one day I flew far away from you
I never knew how I'd regret it
My sweet Magnolia belle you know I've loved you well
Even if I never said it
Magnolia, now I see that freedom isn't free
And love's the only true redeemer
And when this journey's through
I'll be coming back for you
If you'll have this foolish dreamer
I spend a night now and then passing through town on my travels
But someday I'm gonna come back to stay
Magnolia, I'm coming home

    You're very welcome Julie, and most of the pictures in this video were chosen by another southern girl, your friend River!

    I've been listening to Dan's music since I was 10 years old. I'm now 53 and I still am listening to him. Even though this wasn't one of his known hits, it is by far one of my favorites. Back in 86, I watched Dan play this live in concert at the universal amp. in L.A. Calif. It was just him on piano and my girlfriend had tears in out eyes. Dan brought out emotion while he performed not only in himself, but to those that were listening. We miss you Dan, Rest in peace. Gone but not forgotton.

    Beautiful job on this one, (hell ALL of them duh- - - ). I have an identical twin brother, what I didn't know was that I had another "twin brother" when it came to feelings I woud eventualy experience over my years. EVERY song of his I've ever learned how to play, EVERY time I play it brings a personel experiance, to my strings and my vocals. What an incredible gift this man has given all of us.

    Bill, your videos are fantastic! any chance that you could post "Let Her Go" from Windows & Walls? I am missing that song. I don't need anything fancy--just the audio is what I am interested in. I used to own the CD, but lost it! Thanks!

    Dan’s lyrics and melodies have inspired me to come forward to create tribute videos to him after his passing, and I am glad I have done it and accomplished many. May his timeless music and boundless love continue to heal us through the toughest times, bring joy and happiness to you and stays in our hearts for ever on... God bless you always!

    ...the erotic, symbiotic attractions (unsrestrained by these images) truly show yet another facet of Dan's allure and life that cannot be overstated. So well done JMEagle101!...
