Song of the Day: Same Old Lang Syne

I have mentioned before how Dan Fogelberg is a guilty pleasure of mine.  I heard this song twice today, so it must be a sign "syne".

Really a very good song with some lyrics that someone said were "sublime".  That is as good a description as I could come up with, although I would add "wistful" and "nostalgic".  The best part?  It's a true story.  Dan was visiting his parents in Illinois over the holidays one year.  He went to the local store for something on Christmas Eve and the rest is history. 

This is a great, original video for the song.  Not by Dan Fogelberg, but a couple of fans.
