i’m a rock n roll guy , 50’s till now … the one song that saddens me is “cats in the cradle “by harry chapin … it’s a sad life story to often repeated. another good song that gets me thinking is “ ode to billy joe “ sad tale ….
 
My dad used to sing that song (cats in the cradle) to me when I was kid. Funny how life imitates art.
 
- Buffalo Springfield - For what it’s Worth
- Credence - Who will stop the rain (the remake a few years ago with Fogerty and Bob Seger especially)
- Otis Redding - Sitting on the dock of the bay
- The Shirelles - Baby it’s you.

Thats enough to wet my eyes.

Written in a minor scale. It is sad before you hear the lyrics.

Don't stop believing.... the closing song we played at our Daughter's memorial with 200+ in attendance all holding hands in a circle.

Was the song that her and her other small town girlfriends always requested as the last song at closing time, in bars in Toronto, when they were going to University.
 
A sad story well told by a master storyteller!
 
The Star Spangled Banner, when sung properly and powerfully, can be emotional. Whitney did a fantastic job all those years ago.
