A week ago, I heard this song for the very first time. Written and sang by Dan Fogelberg. The lyrics and music are just amazing. As Dan tells the story about this song.... "Sometimes a song confirms why it is I should be doing this. This is very mature stuff by someone who at the time (age 21) had never been in a serious relationship. I do find the song just as relevant now as when it was written. I wrote it in '72 or '73 probably. This CD starts off like that period, so I thought, 'Why not bring a song from that time?' I always loved 'Drawing Pictures.' It was one of those songs that kept getting pushed aside. Irving Azoff, my manager at the time, used to love it and would say, 'You've got to put this on that album.' But for one reason or another through the years I didn't. Finally 30 years later, this beautiful song made it to an album. I don't know who it was written for or about, or where I was when I wrote it. I honestly don't remember. But it was a song always there that kept saying, 'Hey, don't forget about me.' " ~ Dan Fogelberg...
Pam (Mav2100) helped me out with a little icing on the cake with her fantastic harmonies. I love this song. Hope you do too.

@cash Oh boy, thank you Cash. Wish I had started singing back when I was 20. Instead, started at 69 and not looking back. I think that's the kindest thing anyone has ever said to me about my singing. Thank you again my friend.
