I love them all, but my favorite is "Hard To Say".  :)

Great poll, Karen! I went with "Longer" ;)

If you're not talking '80s only then...

1.Part of the Plan (1974)
2.Nether Lands (1977)
3.Heart Hotels (1980)
and maybe...
4.Longer (1980)
5.Same Old Lang Syne (1981)

I think he was at his best in the '70s.

;)

Excellent singer/songwriter...

A couple of the lyrics are a tad on the corny side, but 'Longer' has such a beautiful melody...

"Longer"...very pretty song. :)

I'm bumping this back to Page 1 in hopes that more people will reply.  :)

Good Idea. Dan's music poll got fewer replies than the Village People's poll.
And that ain't right! >:(

:)

Other: The Power of Gold

I voted for "Same Old Aung Syne."  When he sings that song, it's almost as if he is painting a vivid picture and I feel like I'm in the grocery store and the car every time.  :)

The less said here, the better! :-X

What are you saying?

'Longer'.........I'm pretty certain that was the only one of his that charted here. :-\\

Longer, it's a beautiful song.

I think this is the prettiest song he ever did, reminds me of Tuscaloosa, Alabama where I first heard it:

Stars

Stood out in the rain
Let it soak me down
Before I called you, I called you

Didn't see me there
Hidden by the rain
Beneath your window, but I saw you

Putting on your face before the mirror on the wall
Dreaming that the looking glass was me
Catching your fondest gazes
Living through your fickle phases, I love you

And it's getting easier each day to weep about you
Harder every night to sleep without you
How many years must I be
Driven by this dream of love with you

Spend my dimes on phones
Trying just to talk but you don't answer
You let it ring

Spend my nights alone
Catching falling stars to give to you love
They're just for you

For stars fall every time a lover has to face the truth
And far too many stars have fell on me
And as they trail the skies
And burn their paths upon my eyes, I cry

And it's getting easier each day to weep about you
Harder every night to sleep without you
How many years must I be
Driven by this dream of love with you
With you
With you

Ahh so thats the name of that song, thats my fav one of his too.

'Longer'.........I'm pretty certain that was the only one of his that charted here. :-\\



If that's the case, then you're missing a lot of good stuff, Mandamoo!  :)

'Longer'.........I'm pretty certain that was the only one of his that charted here. :-\\



Criminally, it was the only song of his that charted in Britain...

Make Love Stay followed by Longer and Same Old Lang Syne

Longer

"Leader Of The Band" is a great song.
BTW - are there any updates on Dan Fogelberg's health?

"Missing You" - there's also another good song of his you seldom hear on the radio anymore - "Language of Love", which came out in 1984.

My Favourite Fogelberg song was Lonely in Love.  Here in Canada, that song was massive in 1987.  Such a beautiful ballad :)

I'm bumping this back to Page 1 in hopes that more people will reply

Ahhhh no need to,we can find it anyway :)

My favourite is 'LEADER OF THE BAND' of his.... A real nice song!
