Nov 18, 2008 - This is the greatest song about a father and son relationship in pop history. The other great one is Father & Son by Cat Stevens. peace.

Nov 18, 2008 - This was a song we had played over our TV and airwaves in Northern Ireland during the height of the Troubles. It was portrayed in an advert about a young man who joined the paramilitaries instead of staying at home and being the father his son wanted him to be. It touches many many chords with me thanks to that,brings back so many memories of what is now thankfully gone,hopefully gone in my wee country.

Nov 25, 2008 - Hey shit-for-brains, the next time you get it into that empty head of yours to make an attempt at being clever, make sure that you know the difference between "there" and their." Nice self-pwn, stupid.

Jko90 Says:

Nov 26, 2008 - Thank goodness I'm not a black guy.

Maafa1619 Says:

Nov 26, 2008 - Thank goodness indeed. Because being as much of a dullard as that laughably uninspired comment implies that you are, you need every inordinate advantage afforded to white guys in white countries just to get by.

Dec 2, 2008 - Wonderful song! It does bring tears to your eye.

GermanShepardd Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - So the annoying kid was just like the Dad. So it worked out. Earn the dough and the kid will raise himself. Even gave him some grandkids. Fantastic!!!

GermanShepardd Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - What's with all the racism? Moral of the song is a dad can neglect the kid and he'll turn out just fine. It's very optimistic. Just as long as you work and make the dough. Of course, the black dudes leave entirely,and don't provide any support. Leave the kid to be raised on the welfare. Well it worked for the future Prez. His old man went back to Africa to get started on a harem. Barry was raised by his white mom. No that's not right, it was his grandparents after she took off as well.
