RIP Dan.
It was Fogelberg's enivormental activism that initially got me believing that our Earth is the only Planet that man has to live on. So it's up to Man to take care of our home. We certainly cannot rely on corporations and their minions to look out for our Planet when the almighty dollar is the bottom line. His song "Face the Fire" told the story of 'the 3 Mile Island accident' and the dangers of corporate overlords.
| Face The Fire I hear the thunder three miles away The Island's leaking into the bay The poison is spreading The demon is free And people are running from what they can't even see (Chorus) Face the fire You can't turn away The risk grows greater with each passing day The waiting's over The moment has come To kill the fire and turn to the sun They'll take your money And then take your health To line their pockets with unequalled wealth These men are under the power of gold We won't be safe until we shut them down cold (Chorus) The people came to the capitol town One hundred thousand of them laid their hearts down They screamed in anger and broadcast their fears Just to have them fall on deaf ears (Chorus) Kill the fire and turn to the sun |
"Leader of the Band" was one of the few songs I could find.
