Cats in the Cradle.....obviously.
For real, I'm surpised it took this long to get mentioned. That song is so depressing that I change the radio station whenever it comes on.
Wow... I actually don't find that song depressing at all. :-\
Do you have kids?
I bet he has a father so what is your point?

Uhh, well, when you're a child, your relationship with your parents isn't under your control, whereas your relationship with your kids IS, and they are totally dependent upon YOU instead of the other way around. So in one case, you are not the one making the mistakes and having regrets, and in the other, you ARE.
I never found that song disturbing either until I had a child. Now it bothers me. You wake up one day and 5 years have passed in a flash while you were busy trying to get promoted and pay the mortgage, and you realize the kid was the only thing that ever really mattered, and that you should've spent more time, been more patient, or just generally done better.
That is, if you're at all thoughtful or introspective, which I realize from your dumb-ass reply probably does not apply to you.
