Songs for Father’s Day

Posted by Jeff on June 15, 2008    175 views    Comments (View Comments)

Tonight I’m sitting listening to my iTunes library and the wide range of music I have collected. After about an hour of sampling bits and pieces of over a hundred or so tunes I landed on a Cat Stevens hit, “Father and Son” and that made me think I should begin a post about great Father’s Day songs! Of course the next to come to my mind is my favorite Harry Chapin song, Cats in the Cradle!

So my contributions to the list begin with:

  1. Cat Stevens – Father and Son
  2. Harry Chapin – Cats in the Cradle

    Submitted by others

  3. John Mayer – Daughters (@LindsayLebresco)

If you can come up with others please let me know and I’ll compile them on this list, feel free to leave comments and I’ll add to the list. Or follow me on Twitter and tweet me @daddystoolbox (twitter.com/daddystoolbox).
