Dan Fogelberg was definately on the softer side of my taste, and my father's favorite artist.

    I heard he was fighting cancer. Sad stuff. Only song I really remember from him was 'Old Lang Syne'.

    He was a little too soft for my taste, but I have memories of my mom listening to him when I was young boy. Along with John Denver, when I hear a Fogelberg song on the radio I'll probably listen for the sentimentality of it. Sad to hear he died so young. Cancer is a bitch.

    I am so sorry! I just read this on MSN. I never knew he was sick. I love his music. It's soft but I admit I like soft rock.

    I have a major soft spot for Dan...the Power of Gold is one of those songs that I play when I think I'm getting a little too greedy for my own good. And as a horse girl, I still like Run for the Roses.

    Came as quite a shock to me, had no idea he was sick. He certainly had his place in rock, albeit, soft rock.

    I see the raven’s made
    Her nest in your eyes
    She’s got you thinking that
    Her love is a prize
    And you’ll go under from
    The weight of her lies
    As the raven flies
    As the raven flies

    She’ll bring you stories
    That just never sound true
    She’ll bring you secrets
    That were never meant for you,
    And just as you come round
    She’ll send you back through
    She’s in love with you
    She’s in love with you.

    Darker, darker
    Don’t let her talk her way
    Into you.
    Lonely, lonely
    You know she’s only
    No good for you.

    I see the raven’s made
    Her nest in your eyes
    She’s got you thinking that
    Her love is a prize
    And you’ll go under from
    The weight of her lies
    As the raven flies
    As the raven flies
    As the raven flies
    As the raven flies.
