RIP Dan... "Like a phoenix I have risen from the flames No more living Someone elses dreams" Phoenix is still one of my favorite albums.

True.

We'll the playlist slide this time but please don't play this again. I don't like his music that much but he's got way better stuff than this.

I would go so far as to say playing this song is an insult to his memory and his work (that should get some flames going on this page ;-)

Yes, it's okay to be sad about someone dying young and still hate this crap. Sucko - barfo!

Heard about his death last night. I got to see him in concert (way back when) - great show. Loved, owned, and (perhaps over-) played lots of his music... because it was good for me...

Sorry to hear the news as well. This song, however....

Kinda makes me think of Disney's Little Mermaid for some reason...

Thanks for the music Dan...you will be missed.

There weren't too many of his songs that I did not like. Could have done with out the 'Power of Gold' bit other than that, I enjoyed almost all of his music. It is sad that he went so young

I'm very sorry that he passed away, but his death doesn't make his music any less sucktacular.

Wow does this bring back memories. I sang this in a talent show at summer camp when i was like 12. I'm sure when i sang "i want a lover" back then, i was just thinking a snuggle buddy in the pillow boxes at the theatre. No idea what i did on stage during the long 'orchestra solo'.

Um, has anyone not noticed that this is a horrible song? Sappy strings, weak vocals, dripppy lyrics?

I went thru my entire Dan Fogelberg collection yesterday after hearing the news. Always great to hear this masterpiece again.

Rest in Peace, Dan. Thank you for the beautiful music. Your legacy will live on thru it forewer.

Dan Fogelberg was one of my earliest songwriting inspirations. Although most will find his music somewhat sappy, he was a poet above all other things.
He will be greatly missed.

Dan Fogelberg 1952-2007. Rest in Peace, my friend.

Barf.

glad to have heard your music while you were alive, sad to hear it now that you aren't.
great live in small venues in marin county back in the day.

His music was a force in my life since the 70's, his words and voice were so pure and honest.

Kinda out of character foer this station but let's give some love to a hometown hero. Rock on Central Illinois.

Wow, have not heard this in a very long time. Rest well, Dan.

Thank you Bill.

RIP Dan
