I can't write or speak English properly, but I know that passionate people like me can understand me and feel me through these little big sentences." I am a very sensitive and passionate person until I have tears in my eyes.. And when I listen to this song I think of my father, a great man who died of cancer when I was very young. Then I grew up and I think of him, when he said, my son, I am really sick buying myself a piece of cake. Life without him and his compassion is cruel. I feel very alone. . I live with great sadness in my heart to be praised by my relatives and friends.

I'm leaving this comment here so after a month or a year when someone likes it, I get reminded of this song

My grandma gave me good advice. My dad was tough on us. She said ‘Yes, because we had famine, plagues, wars, and epidemics. She said, You have 2 kids and he had 7! Just know that we loved each other, she yelled!My grandmother told me to explain to my other sibs that for the first 20 years our dad was the only bread winner. And later in life, he did get kinder and more caring…so, give him time and don’t be too quick to judge the past. ‘We are the mirrors of ourselves’ We have to be the change or ‘the tough love’ we grew up with will carry over to the next generations.

I am in the hospital by my dad’s side as he is reaching the end of his life. We are listening to this song together and I’m crying a river of tears. This is the most beautiful and touching song and I am so thankful it was written.

If you're interested to know more about the explication of this song kindly check my new video of today ..

I can't listen to this song without tearing up. My father was my best friend and taught me so much about life and people. He was a quiet gentle man and never yelled. He would explain why you don't do certain things and their consequences unlike most parents who scream and teach you nothing. I lost him almost 11 years ago. He died in my arms peacefully and quietly like the life he lived with us. He came from a communist country and witnessed more than most people could imagine so his wisdom and understanding of human nature came early in life. Thank you papa. Love you forever ❤

The tragedy of this song is that no son understands what it's about until much later...when it's probably too late.

My dad played me this song when I was going through a very tough time in my life. I was so mad at him because he didnt rescue me or save me, instead he taught me how to overcome adversity and become stronger through the toughest of times. Over a decade later I am so thankful.

I'm so sorry to hear this, as a son.

I'm sitting here crying like a baby. My oldest boy James passed away in 2011 two weeks before his 34th birthday and was going through some hard times and I was too far away to be there with him. This song has always been one of my favorites. God bless you James. Shoe box & tears I came across an old shoe box, on top a layer of dust Knowing memories will be awakened, I blew off the dust and removed the lid. Yes it has been some time when I saw all of you last. On a little pieces of paper, laughter frozen in time Yes, I remember that day, that moment in time I shared with you. Silently overturning photo after photo I smile at each one. I’m powerless and I slowly close my eyes as tear drops of time roll down my cheeks. I reach the last picture and slowly put the top back on the box but wouldn’t you know before I tuck it away I find one more shoebox behind it but we’ll save that for another day. J.W Brucks 5/5/17 I wrote this some years ago. If you have an "Old shoe box" bring it down, share the tears of laughter and sadness.

I was pregnant with my son and listened to this constantly. He was born in1987 and was the best person I ever met or knew. He was a blessing from God to me. I miss my baby, he passed away August of 2019 from ALS, he was only 31 years old. I pray I see him again. His sister, my sweet baby girl, passed away in August of 2017 at 27 years old. Hopefully they are together again with the Lord, happy and free. I love you and miss you Adam and Suraiya, always, see you soon. I don't like to be here without you guys 😭❤.

One of the most underappreciated and gifted artists of our Era.

Blows me away that Cat Stevens could write such a deeply reflective song as a young man at all of 22 years old. It's like he had the life's wisdom of an 80 year old man and father of multiple grown children, but he was 60 years younger. Pretty incredible.

Yes. You put my thoughts into words beautifully there. I wonder if this song was a warning to us all that he was going to leave us, and go off into obscurity like he did for so long. Yusuf ? The void Cat left is still there unfilled.

Him, Paul Simon, and Bob Dylan always puts that same thought in my head. Simon graduated from Juilliard at an early age. Cat Stevens went to Hammersmith college in London. His roommate, while he was there was Don McLean who was studying opera believe or not.

@@carolinemulders135 I’ve seen what your saying and it’s certainly all over the industry, but there are types of people who are more socially involved with older people. If you combine that with a college education in writing at a time when who you were studying would have been much older people I can see it. Bob Dylan was known world wide before he ever released a song for what he did for folk music. Paul Simon s early music and his career were modeled after Bach. I’m sure that graduating from Juilliard played a part in that.

Well said, yes he did have this wise old soul perspective in his songs. I remember that sense when I first heard him in the 70's. I was in high school listening to lots of different artists and he was singular in the way he made me feel. I enjoyed the sounds but at the same time I knew that he was about more than just entertaining the listener.. Felt like he was always leaning towards more. All these years later that still holds true.

I heard this song for the very first time today in Ted Lasso finale, and I haven't stopped crying since.

I understand your feelings. My father and I were so very close when I was young and then...years and years of anger. A lovely woman came into my life and made me see that if I ever wanted to have a relationship with my dad then I would have to be the one to end the hostility. I did. We had 15 good years before he died in 2019 when I was 53. Now I'm sitting here, playing his guitar, crying and hoping that he knew how much I respected and cherished him, even when my foolishness kept us apart. If he had died during the 20-years when we were estranged I would be devastated now. Family is more precious than anything.

Our stubborn pride kept us apart - neither of us believed we needed to say "I'm sorry." The day he died, my sister urged me to come visit, saying it would help bring him peace. I said I'd come in the morning. He didn't make it and I didn't get to say goodbye. Y'all - be sure to cherish what you have, swallow your pride, be the first to say "I'm sorry." Like the song says, "It's too late when we die, to admit we don't see eye to eye...I just wish I could have told him in the living years."

When I was in college my best friend and I would play guitar and sing this song just about every night. Shortly after that he died from a tragic accident. At the funeral a friend of ours played Father & Son. It was so emotional. Almost ten years later I had my first son. He was named after my best friend. He is now grown up and a father himself. After over four decades, hearing Father & Son make me emotional thinking about my best friend and my son. They are so much alike.

@@jonnifjader Well, yes, he is undervalued, the new generations do not know him, the media hardly mention him, but nevertheless they overvalue other artists (regardless of the time they are) less talented than him. He started writing, composing, recording and singing his songs since he was a teenager and it hardly ever gets talked about, while Britney Spears just lip-syncs and everyone knows and applauds her and could give you many more examples of overrated artists from the *past* and present.

@@oct9653 That's nice to hear! I am 13, unfortunately the new generations and even some adults hardly know him. It's very sad because he's a great artist, too bad he's so underrated.

One of the best songs of all time.

Mio padre mi fece ascoltare questa canzone quando avevo 15 anni, oggi ne ho 30 ed ho perso mio padre 7 anni fa, ascolto questa canzone pensando a tutti i consigli che mi hai dato e la forza che mi davi per affrontare i problemi della vita. Ti amerò per sempre ! ❤️❤️❤️

My father died 2014. He loved this song. It helped me grieve. He died of cancer. Rest in Peace Papa

it's better you get it from somewhere than from nowhere but it's its own tragedy you ain't getting it from Tolkien

I am in between a father with dementia, watching him fade, and on the other side, a 17 year old that wants to go away to college and I rather him stay local. He says, "I need to grow up dad". This song sure does help.

My dad was a big marvel fan, he watches the films with me and my sister. whenever the latest marvel movie and he would let us know a few hours before the movie that he bought tickets and that we should get ready, watching guardians 2 with him in the cinema, this song popped up and I cried knowing that him being gone will happen and that I should get ready for it, A day before new years 2023, my dad passed and once I arrived home this song ended up playing. Ended up crying for like an hour or 2. Love you pa, see you whenever possible:)

My grandpa used to play this song for me when he was teaching my guitar. He raised me a good chunk of my life and I was the one who found him passed away in his old house that 3 generations of my family grew up in raised by him. He adored this song and I can’t think of anyone but him when I hear cats voice. God bless

If you're here after Ted Lasso and don't know Cat Stevens/ Yusuf's music, you're in for a real treat. Enjoy my friends. Ted Lasso forever.

I actually knew the song before, just not this one. I had been listening to the one Johnny Cash sang, but I heard this and prefer this voice

😢 I learned of this song about 15 years ago, from LordSardonic, aka Alex Burke. He had an amazing YT channel & presence here, but he had to go. ✴️

My father died this evening.... 😞😞😞 This song is for him. RIP Daddy... 😞😞😞

This song, and Leader of the Band, are the best father-son songs ever written. Nothing else comes close.
