Thread Name: Songs about Fathers (2)
Subject: RE: Songs about Fathers
How about another Judy Collins recorded, titled, "Liverpool Lullabye"? And one by the Burns sisters about their father, "My Father's Blue Eyes." And does the old peter, Paul and Mary song, "Day Is Done," qualify? This si great that I stumbled on this thread tonight - my Dad's 82 birthday is the 19th of June, and of course , Father's Day this weekend. I've made several attempts at a song for him. I wrote one for he and my mother, which they heard me perform in public once. I find it incredibly hard to write songs about people I feel very close to.
