"Leader of the Band" is written by Dan Fogelberg from his 1981 album The Innocent Age. The song was written as a tribute to his father, Lawrence Fogelberg, a musician and the leader of a band, who was still alive at the time the song was released. Lawrence died in August 1982, but not before this hit song made him a celebrity with numerous media interviews interested in him as its inspiration. Dan, in my opinion, is a master story teller. It's so sad that he passed so soon.
I believe Dan's dad was also the band director at a school . . . which makes the song's title even more appropriate.
Another great artist who left us WAY TOO SOON...RIP Dan Fogelberg
Died on this day. Agreed completely.
His dad was the leader of the band at Bradley University inPeoria Illinois. The instrument you heard is a Flugelhorn. He did say that his dad did live long enough to hear this tribute Dan wrote for him. He also once said he had memories of his dad ,when he was very young “let “him conduct the band.
One of my favorites. Always makes me cry for my dad.
It's about his father who was a high school music teacher.
Dan was one of my favorite artists. He wrote and sang so many great songs: Hard To Say, Missing You, Auld Lang Syne, etc. This was one of his best.
A tribute to his father. Since it's Holiday season you REALLY need to do his "Same Auld Lang Syne"
It's about his dad a high school band director
Dan Fogelberg left us on this day December 17th in 2007 at only 56 as a result of prostate cancer. He left a legacy of rich beautiful music and some of the finest lyrics ever written as he was a consumate story teller.
Dan Fogelberg. Was one of the great songwriters of the 70s and 80s. Many memorable songs. My particular favorite is Tullamore Dew/ Pheonix. Pheonix is the title cut from his biggest selling album. Check it out.
Dan Fogelberg has fantastic songs on many of his previous albums.
Great rabbit hole to go down there is so much music from Dan Fogelberg You really want to check out Netherlands... And Souvenirs is my 2 favorite but he has 52 albums out.... So much to choose from....
FYI - Dan passed on this day on Dec 16th, 2007 at the age of 56 after a courageous 3-year battle with prostate cancer. You were "meant" to play this :-)
I was at one of his last concerts on Long Island, NY. I had no idea that was even sick.
Yup... meant to be (other reactors did this song tonight without knowing...hmm)
An iconic song that never gets old.
Had the privilege of seeing him in concert twice. The first time was a regular concert with his band and the second was essentially an acoustic concert where it was just him and his guitar or his piano. His music is wonderful but never got all that much radio play, except for "Same Auld Lang Syne," which gets played around Christmas time every year. He died too young of cancer at the age of 56.
This is easily a top 3 song tribute to fathers for me along with Mike and the Mechanics ‘The Living Years’ and James Blunt ‘Monsters’. All 3 easily bring tears to my eyes especially since my dad passed a couple of years ago. Thanks for the reaction guys.
Glad you finally listened to this song Chod. Evetime I hear you talk about your father and how it influenced you in music, I thought about this song. I believe Dan Fogelberg wrote the song while his dad was still alive and was glad his dad heard it.
Dan was also an artist who drew/painted most album covers. This image of him was a self portrait. He was an amazing talented musician and storyteller, he died way too young. Dan was from my hometown.
Love this song and the sentiment it expresses. It's simply beautiful.
Another great story told in one of his songs that you must hear is "Same Old Lang Syne".
My favorite song by Dan. A touching tribute to his father. We all don’t say I love you enough, a big problem nowadays. It’s fun watching you push each other’s buttons. Love you guys. 😊
man I forgot all about this song...good hearing it again, must be over 40 year ago last heard it
Love him so much, gone way too soon. Brilliant songwriter. Last name pronounced Pho- gelberg. Please consider 'to the morning'. Simply stunning.
Love this song! Thank you!❤
So lush and layered . Harmonies defined this genre .
Always evokes the tender part .
Beautiful person. Wrote beautiful songs. Run For The Roses is my favorite. His dad was where his love for music came from. Dan died from Prostate Cancer way too young. I saw him in concert. It was great.
Dan was a multitalented superstar and special human being who I saw in concert 6 times. Try reacting to the tunes Netherlands, Power of Gold, and Run For The Roses which are beautiful tunes. Dan could rock, jazz, play folk, do country and the blues. Dan played every instrument well except the drums.
Oh , and I love yall !!!
Spot on react guys...Jim Messina could have had this man as his partner...It is soo sad that Dan passed before his time,but what a beautiful legacy he has left us! Ty
When I was a child his music was magical to me. Run for the roses... So MANY beautiful wholesome songs. It touched me to see that it was something different for you, too. ❤️❤️🙏🙏
This is folk, i love it very much 💗😊
I live in Maine. He lives this state so much! I think he was living here when he passed. He had a sail boat and loved the coast and everything about Maine.
This is a great song. Also a very sad song, especially to those of us who have lost their fathers. Chod seemed to be very combative/defensive today. I think you were spot on on this one Dee.
That is all Dan's voice, and he plays every instrument, including the French horn that is so hauntingly beautiful in this.
He was amazingly talented!
Had the privilege of seeing him live once. I will never forget it!
RIP Dan
You are missed...
Country Music is chock full of songs about dads. It's part of what makes that genre so worthwhile. Till I Was a Daddy Too by Tracy Lawrence, You've Got to Stand For Something by Aaron Tippin, Drive by Alan Jackson, The Best Day by George Strait, He Didn't Have to Be by Brad Paisley, The Car by Jeff Carson...the list goes on and on.
When the instrumental, and horn section kicks in. It is, more than likely, a sample of his father's style of music. And when you read the lyrics. It is a great combination. Also, the song is kind of sad.
"The leader of the band is tired
And his eyes are growing old
But his blood runs through
My instrument
And his song is in my soul --
My life has been a poor attempt
To imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy
To the leader of the band."
One of my favorite artists. Dan Fogelberg was such a great folk rock singer songwriter & storyteller. He also played multiple instruments such as guitar, bass, piano & mandolin. I had his double album "The Innocent Age" from 1981. He wrote so many great songs such as "Longer", "Same Old Lang Syne", "Hard To Say", "Missing You", "Make Love Stay", "Run For The Roses", "The Language Of Love", "Believe In Me" etc. We lost him much too soon in 2007.
Love you man
Dee: You're right, there aren't that many songs about fathers but one example is, "Everything I Own" by Bread. It sounds like a love song but David Gates wrote it about his late father.
Dan Fogelburg was one of my dad's favorite artist. The night he passed away i played this song. I listen to it very often. I miss my dad daily.
He's one of my all-time favorite artists. His last name is pronounced Foe-gull-berg.
Dan was a magic songwriter and singer. Gone too soon.
Fun fact: Garth brooks fashioned his sound from Dan fogelberg. He was a fan of his sound.
Chod I know you already did "Same Old Lang Syne" but you need to do that one again with Dee. It is my favorite and PERFECT for this time of year. Thanks guys ❤❤
i had the privilege of playing in the band. I am about the same age as Dan Fogelberg, and I grew up in Peoria. We played in summer band one year, and his father was the director. Of course, I didn't know the significance at the time.
I remember Dan as the kid who could play every instrument, and he usually played it better than the 1st chair in that section. So of course, I hated him at the time.
The song was released shortly before his dad died, so his dad did get to hear it.
Besides the review of a lovely song, I enjoyed the affectionate banter between the two of you.😂
Great song by Dan Fogelberg, just to give you a perspective of how many different types of music were on the charts at that time, this song was on the top 40 in either 81 or 82 which is very close to the same time that Michael Jackson released the Thriller album that is in view behind you.
The Trilogy of Dad Songs: Leader of the Band by Dan Fogelberg; Father and Son by Cat Stevens; Cats in the Cradle by Harry Chapin. Guaranteed you will need to wipe your tears.
She's looking better every time I look at her she's pretty
He was band director at the high school i went to Pekin Illinois.
Dan Fogelberg
As The Raven Flies
Old Lang Syne
FOE-GELBERG 😉
I Love you too Chod lol.
Amazing singer u guys. Dig deeper. This is about his dad. If dee hasn't heard auld lang syne check it out plz. By the way love the hat and I used to live in Palmdale before I moved to TX. Been following awhile.love this channel . RIP MR FOGELBERG
That's probably my favorite song by Dan Fogleberg
Short story quick...tell someone you love them and more importantly mean it.......
Damn, this dredges up the past.
Dan's Dad was a College Band director.
That arrangement is called fugue !
I was a trumpet player and music teacher for decades. Many time s I played in brass choirs and solos, and in a big band until I quit when the bog band broke up 10 years ago. You have just heard a brass group beautifully executed against the modern sounds of droning computer r sounds and electric type drum beats that are hardly music compared to this. if you're done arguing with your wife, I'll go take her out for a beer now, lol
I have to agrre with Chad cause he he usually sign off with "Love you guys" at the end of the video.
Love DF.
There is plenty of songs out there that I dad songs listen to the song Daddy's Hands there are different artists that sang it but you should find the original one of my three daughters told me and my two sons and one of those are dead now but they said they would play that song at my funeral as well as many more
Long O Fogelberg lol. Poetry set to music. I always thought he was singing about his Father, he mentioned everyone but his Mom. Wilburn, you should know better than to debate a woman lol.
More Little Feat ...please & Thank you ...
1. Hi Roller
2. Day At The Dog Races
You guys remind me of George Burns & Gracie Allen (21st century version😄)
Please always tell your father that you love him while he's alive cuz I lost my dad and I didn't get to tell my dad that I love him before he passed 😂
React to she's so lovely scouting for girls
Please play RUN FOR THE ROSE Thank You If your going to argue shut down . We are hear Dan not argueing
Chod isn’t listening to Dee 🙄 This song makes me cry every time.
DAn died in his early 50's from csmcer.😊
Those were french horns
Gone too soon.
Teddy bear be a good song for Christmas Teddy bear by red red sovan So Vine
Yeah not too many people I've heard sing about their dad
A very sad song. Since I was a child this song would make me sad. Chod you seem to be really defensive. She has an opinion that you kinda stomped on. Damn. It is a very good sad sad song. We all need to know we’re loved.
Not my favorite Fogelberg song, because, well, my dad. However, there is no such thing as a bad song by Dan Fogelberg. You should listen to more, and you should go deeper cuts, like Part of the Plan, or There's a Place in the World for a Gambler.
Y'all act like you're married. LOL.
Toddy! Do ever buy your dear wife some nice flowers once in awhile??
Bring in some Christmas chair here red ridge Christmas red red soven read So VINA hay could saying his song was Teddy bear hes saying a song called Teddy bear read so Van I'll wrap

Dee got it right, Chod , you got it wrong. Get over yourself.
Yeah yeah she is a pretty baby
Maybe I'm the exception, but the arguing made my experience of your reaction unpleasant.
This is why your always wrong. Shes a woman. haha
If you guys would stop interrupting the songs you would actually understand what the song is about. I am so done with reaction videos and yours is going to be the last one I watch
Dan has stated in interviews that if there were only one song he could ever write, this would be the one. What it meant to his father and himself.
