Same Old Lang Syne ..by Dan Fogelberg is incredible !!!!

[garybauer]

Guys,
Dan Fogelberg wrote leader of the band in honor and respect for his father who was hospitalized at the time. He finally understood his musical heritage with his father's story. His father did get to hear the song before passing away.😊

[anastasiabeaverhausen]

Dan Fogelberg was a gift and may he always Rest In Peace.

[jeri-annabbott]

I think for anyone who has lost their father the line "and Papa I don't think I said I love you near enough" hits you in the feels. This song always makes me tear up, but I love it. Dan had a unique voice and I really enjoyed his music.

[selecttoursnyc]

Great choice for your first Dan Fogelberg song. He wrote this to honor his father who was a music teacher and band leader in Illinois. This was a hit for Dan. We lost him way, way too soon to prostate cancer.

[kencarpenter]

I'm happy to know that Dan's father lived long enough to hear this tribute from his loving son before he passed away. And, RIP to Dan Fogelberg, too.

[GaryYork-flyr]

Dan was a great story teller through all of his songs. "Same Auld Lang Syne" really happened and is always played at Christmas time. One of his first hits "Run for the Roses" he was commissioned by the Kentucky Derby to write a song for the upcoming Derby that year. While he lived in south western Colorado in the San Juan mountain's he owned horses. I had the pleasure to see him twice at Red Rocks. RIP Dan you are truly missed.

[mwilt]

His writing and storytelling were unmatched.

[brianbausch]

Ever since I lost my Dad I can’t hear this song without tearing up! ❤️😢

[caryriggs]

His gentle means of sculpting souls took me years to understand. What a line.

[bdheine]

I dedicated this song to my father. I miss him, and his guidance so much.

[l-bird]

I absolutely love Dan Fogelberg. My personal favorite of his is "Longer". But another incredible song of his is "Same Old Lang Syne
Song by Dan Fogelberg", plus many more. RIP Dan, you had an incredible impact on many of us!

This is one of Fogelberg's most personal songs. It's a tribute to his father, Lawrence Fogelberg, who was a band director.

The senior Fogelberg began his musical journey directing high school bands in his home state of Illinois, first in Peoria and then at Pekin. He married Margaret Irvine, a talented singer who directed her sorority chorus, in 1946, and the couple had three children. Dan was the youngest, born in 1951. By this time, his dad was the band director at Bradley University in Peoria, where the family lived. The band would play concerts and perform at basketball and football games; Dan often told a story about his father letting him "conduct" the band when he was four years old, standing in front of his father with a baton while his dad did the job behind him. "It was an amazing feeling, " Dan recounted. "It felt both very magical and powerful. And I was fearless."

Fogelberg recorded this for his 1979 album Phoenix, but felt it was too sentimental for the album and didn't release it until 1981 on The Innocent Age. His father died the following year.

When Fogelberg wrote this song, he didn't hear it as a hit, but the song expressed something that many children have trouble articulating: a love for their father. The intimacy of the song actually broadened its appeal, and it became one of his most enduring songs and one that fans would often mention to him as one they connected with.

The line, "Thank you for the freedom when it came my time to go, " is a reference to Fogelberg dropping out of college. He attended the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana, but decided to leave in the middle of a semester to pursue music - not what most parents want to hear. Fogelberg's father was disappointed, but supported his son's decision, telling Dan to try it for a year. The music thing worked out well: Dan drove to Los Angeles, got a record deal, and became one of the top-selling solo artists of the '70s.

The song concludes with part of a performance by the UCLA Band of the John Philip Sousa march "The Washington Post" arranged by Fogelberg's father.

Anytime I think of this song I cry. I grew up in a musical family. My dad sang and played the guitar. He taught me to sing this song when I was just a little girl. Every time he pulled out his guitar, I would beg him to play it while I sang. It became our song. One day several years after he died (he died young) I was coming home from work late at night. I had a sudden longing for my dad and I started weeping as I drove. This song came on the radio. I had not sung it or even thought about it in years - and there it was randomly on the radio. I sang along and still remembered every word. It was a hug from my dad on the other side.

[mikeortiz]

This is my favorite Dan Folgelberg song because it makes me think of my father who has passed. He was my friend and hero and I still miss him.

[eileenwallis]

One of the greatest and most underrated singer-songwriters, in my opinion. Dan was absolutely amazing live too. If you're gathering suggestions for songs to react to for the holidays, I highly recommend "Same Old Lang Syne" based on a real experience that Dan had one holiday season.

[cindy]

I lost my dad on Nov. 11th and this song broke me. 😢I love Dan Fogelberg and you will not believe the beautiful music he left us with. Gone too soon. RIP Dan and daddy.

[cahatlady]

Dan played this song, alone on stage with just his acoustic guitar, every time I saw him in concert. Every time he sang it, he said that if he'd only written one song in his life, this would be it. It always made me tear up & I wondered how he made it through the song. Absolute perfection.

[Shrykespeare]

Glad you finally got around to Dan Fogelberg, with all the soft rock you've been doing. He's right up there with Bread as one of the best in the genre. "Longer" is one of his most wistful, and you'll also love "Same Old Lang Syne", "Hard to Say", "Run For the Roses", and "Believe in Me".

[jrox]

Whenever I hear this song I'm always struck by the notion that Dan Fogelberg, who achieved a good measure of musical success and fame, wanted to let the world know that his own success is to be credited to his father. Not every artist achieves fame and fortune for their work, but Dan Fogelberg had his head on straight and his heart in gear. May he and his band leader dad play heavenly tunes henceforth.
Thanks and God bless you ♡♡
