Cats In the Cradle

Cats in the Cradle is a song by Harry Chapin recorded in 1973. Quite a few people think that this song is by Cat Stevens just because his name is Cat. Well, it's not. The song was written by Harry Chapin's wife, Sandra Gaston, a few years before Harry decided to sing it. According to Sandra Gaston, Harry only recorded it after their son Josh was born.

The song is a really sad song but really hits home when you listen to the lyrics.

I know this song does't have much to do with cats besides the title of the song, but I wanted to share the song with you because I think it is a very beautiful song (and since the title has the word "cat" in it, it can't harm anyone). Personally I find it is good to listen to this song once in awhile to remind you what is important in life.

Enjoy! :)
