I cannot hear Dan Fogelberg's "Leader of the Band" without thinking of my Daddy and getting fahklempt. Daddy was a carpenter, but loved to plunk out music on the boy' guitars, and tell stories about when he was growing up, and that song just nails it!

I thank you for the music
And your stories of the road
I thank you for the freedom
When it came my time to go
I thank you for the kindness
And the times when you got tough
And papa I don't think I said
"I love you" near enough

Yep, Leader of the Band gets me too. My dad had only been dead two years when I graduated. I think I have them on the same album.
