Its confessional soft-rock hit, Part of the Plan, was the first of a string of emotional, radio-friendly tunes, including Leader of the Band, written for his bandleader father, and Same Old Lang Syne, about a chance meeting with an old girlfriend. By the end of the decade, he was an icon for sensitive souls everywhere. (Comedian Denis Leary joked that his adolescent admiration for Fogelberg hindered his success with girls.)
