Nineties Revisited: Father's Day


Original video located here. Accessed 14th November 2011

Song title: Father's Day

Artist: Weddings Parties Anything

Year: 1992

Why I like this song:

Listening to the Weddo's King Tide album got me inspired so I sought out the Difficult Loves album.
If people know this album it's through this: it's lead-off single. It may sound joyous but it's not a song I can listen to easily: largely because it's told through the perspective of a divorced father as he describes his life.
Still if a song can have such power then it must be doing something right. 
I do recall back in the day this song being a sizable radio hit - which is odd considering the subject matter.
