Sigghhhhhhh . . . as much as I love both Fogelberg and Lightfoot, enough with the mysterious woman thing already guys, you're just making it hard on youselves. You never hear women songwriters writing songs about "mysterious" men who come and go in the mists. I sometimes think the male of the species is the overly romantic one and actually create their own heartache where none exists.

Yes, Cathy, "Whispers in the Wind" is on Dan's new cd "Full Circle". But it is nothing like "Whispers of the North". As he stated, it's about a mysterious lover that comes in the night...much like the woman in "Softly". Gee, I wonder if it is the same gal? LOL. While the lyrics are Gordlike...I am not so sure the melody is, to my amateur ear anyway. A couple of other songs on the cd are similar to Gord's in the lyric writing style ("Reach Haven Postcard" reminds me of "Song For A Winter's Night" for example) but I must say the melodies are pure Dan and nothing of them reminds me of Gord's. And the cd is aptly named as I think it sounds more like his first recordings, "Home Free", "Captured Angel" and "Souvenirs".
