In the second verse, the narrator, who's now a father himself, confesses that he's "scared to death" that his own daughter is going to find a boyfriend who was just like him when he was in high school and he'll need to give that same speech to his daughter's boyfriend.

Whose Your Daddy?
Duration: June 1, 2024 - November 30, 2024
Progress: 0 out of 21
Level 1: 5-10 songs
Level 2 11 -20 songs
Level 3 21 or more songs
There are so many songs about fathers and their relationships with their children and a lot of songs Dads have written about their children. So of course I thought in honor of Fathers day we would look at some of them.
Each song can be used once.
TASKS
1. Cats in the Cradle
"Cat's in the Cradle" is a folk rock song by American singer-
songwriter Harry Chapin. The song is narrated by a father who is repeatedly too busy with his work to spend time with his son, despite his son looking up to him and promising he will grow up to be just like him. In the final stanza, the now-retired father calls his adult son and asks to spend some time together, but the son is now too busy with his own work and family to spend time with his dad, and the father realizes his son has indeed grown up to be just like him.
🎼 Read a book where a son and father spend time together or where a son idolizes his father or with a character who is retired.
2. Just The Two Of Us
“Just The Two Of Us” sung by Grover Washington Jr. with Bill Withers and tells the story of a father and son spending time together. “Just The Two Of Us” is ultimately about love and the importance of relationships. The relationship between father and son, the relationship between husband and wife; all relationships take work and patience to make them last.
🎼Read a book which is tagged family, or with a MC who is in a relationship or which is second in a series.
3. Boy Named Sue
"A Boy Named Sue" is a song written by Shel Silverstein and made famous by Johnny Cash. The song tells the tale of a young man whose father only contribution to his entire life was giving him a guitar and naming him Sue, which results in the young man suffering from ridicule and harassment by everyone he meets. He swears that he will find and kill his father for giving him "that awful name". Later he meets his father and this results in a vicious brawl. As the two pull their guns on each other, Sue's father smiles with pride and admits that he is the man ("son of a bitch" in the Johnny Cash version) that named him Sue. Sue's father knew that he would not be there for his son, he gave him the name as an act of tough love, believing (correctly) that the ensuing ridicule would force him to "get tough or die".
🎼Read a book with a character called Sue or with a gun on the cover or where a character does an act of tough love.
4. Daddy's Hands
“Daddy’s Hands” was written by Holly Dunn in memory of her father. He was a Baptist minister who had a profound influence on her life, and she wanted to pay tribute to him through her music. Dunn was inspired by her father’s hands, which she describes as “strong but gentle” in the song’s lyrics.
🎼 Read a book with hands on the cover or where a character is a minister or tagged as music.
5. Anything Like Me
"Anything Like Me" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music singer Brad Paisley. The song is from the perspective of an anxious father-to-be who discovers that he and his wife will soon have a son, and instantly begins fretting over what will happen if his son is like he was when he was young. As the song nears its end, he slowly becomes more optimistic, co Rncluding that "there's worse folks to be like".
🎼Read a book where a character is pregnant or with a character who is anxious or with a baby boy being born.
6. Papa Was A Rolling Stone
"Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" is a song originally performed by Motown recording act the Undisputed Truth in 1972, though it became much better known after a Grammy-award winning cover by the Temptations was issued later the same year. Of the song’s meaning, writer Strong told the Wall Street Journal, “‘Rolling stone’ was a phrase used all the time in my neighborhood going back to the ’50s. It meant a guy who couldn’t settle down, even if he had a wife and kids. It was from the old proverb, ‘A rolling stone gathers no moss.’”
🎼 Read a book where a character is tempted to do something or where a man can't settle down with a family or where the authors initials can be found in ROLLING STONE.
7. "Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)
Billy Joel's "Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)" is about the connection between people and their children or other loved ones. The song is inspired by his daughter Alexa Ray, who asked him what happens when he dies when she was about seven years old. Joel explains that he wanted to explain to her that she goes into other people's hearts, and she seems okay with that. The song is also about how families can deal with loss and find solace in dark times.
🎼 Read a book where someone dies or with a heart on the cover or with a seven in the publication date.
8. "Daughters,"
"Daughters" is the third single from Heavier Things, the 2003 studio album from blues rock singer-songwriter John Mayer. Lyrically, "Daughters" is an admonition to fathers (and to a lesser extent, mothers) to nurture their daughters in their childhood, because the relationship will affect their future relationships with men as adults. He uses his own troubled lover to illustrate his belief.
🎼 Read a book with a character called John or a blue cover
or where two lovers have trouble.
9. "Butterfly Kisses,"
"Butterfly Kisses" is a song written by Bob Carlisle and Randy Thomas and was written for Carlisle's daughter Brooke's 16th birthday. The story is about a father and daughter and the father says with all he has done wrong he must have done something right because he has butterfly kisses each night.
🎼 Read a book with a butterfly on the cover or where two character kiss or where the authors initials can be found in CARLISLE,
10. "He Didn't Have to Be'
"He Didn't Have to Be" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Brad Paisley. This song is written from the perspective of a son of a single mother. The single mother begins dating a new man who almost immediately includes the child in things like going to the movies. In the final verse, the son now is about ready to become a father himself, standing in the hospital next to his stepfather and hoping that he can be "at least half the dad" that his stepfather "didn't have to be."
🎼Read a book with a character who is a step-dad or a single mother or where a character goes to the movies,
11. "Color Him Father,"
"Color Him Father" is a song written by Richard Lewis Spencer and recorded by American rhythm and blues group the Winstons. "Color Him Father" is a song about a boy expressing his love for his stepfather. The stepdad is portrayed as a hardworking and loving gentleman who married the narrator's widowed mom, who had seven children, and embraced them as his own after her first husband was "killed in the war".
🎼Read a book about a war or with a character who is hardworking or a character who is widowed.
12. "Daddy"
"Daddy" is a song by British rock band Coldplay. The lyrics tell the story of someone struggling to come to terms with the loss of their father. The protagonist of the song is trying to make sense of their feelings and find closure by asking their father for guidance from beyond the grave.
🎼Read a book where a father dies or with a booked tagged paranormal or that is set in England.
13. “Isn't She Lovely"

The only thing he remembers from highschool is the speech given to him by his girlfriend's father after meeting him for the first time—a speech meant to instill fear in the boy so that he doesn't misbehave when he's with the girl, ending with "I'll see you when you get back / Bet I'll be up all night still cleanin' this gun." In the second verse, the narrator, who's now a father himself, confesses that he's "scared to death" that his own daughter is going to find a boyfriend who was just like him when he was in high school and he'll need to give that same speech to his daughter's boyfriend.

TASKS
1. Cats in the Cradle
"Cat's in the Cradle" is a folk rock song by American singer-
songwriter Harry Chapin. The song is narrated by a father who is repeatedly too busy with his work to spend time with his son, despite his son looking up to him and promising he will grow up to be just like him. In the final stanza, the now-retired father calls his adult son and asks to spend some time together, but the son is now too busy with his own work and family to spend time with his dad, and the father realizes his son has indeed grown up to be just like him.

3. Boy Named Sue
"A Boy Named Sue" is a song written by Shel Silverstein and made famous by Johnny Cash. The song tells the tale of a young man whose father only contribution to his entire life was giving him a guitar and naming him Sue, which results in the young man suffering from ridicule and harassment by everyone he meets. He swears that he will find and kill his father for giving him "that awful name". Later he meets his father and this results in a vicious brawl. As the two pull their guns on each other, Sue's father smiles with pride and admits that he is the man ("son of a bitch" in the Johnny Cash version) that named him Sue. Sue's father knew that he would not be there for his son, he gave him the name as an act of tough love, believing (correctly) that the ensuing ridicule would force him to "get tough or die".

“Daddy’s Hands” was written by Holly Dunn in memory of her father. He was a Baptist minister who had a profound influence on her life, and she wanted to pay tribute to him through her music. Dunn was inspired by her father’s hands, which she describes as “strong but gentle” in the song’s lyrics.

As the song nears its end, he slowly becomes more optimistic, co Rncluding that "there's worse folks to be like".

6. Papa Was A Rolling Stone
"Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" is a song originally performed by Motown recording act the Undisputed Truth in 1972, though it became much better known after a Grammy-award winning cover by the Temptations was issued later the same year. Of the song’s meaning, writer Strong told the Wall Street Journal, “‘Rolling stone’ was a phrase used all the time in my neighborhood going back to the ’50s. It meant a guy who couldn’t settle down, even if he had a wife and kids. It was from the old proverb, ‘A rolling stone gathers no moss.’”

7. "Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)
Billy Joel's "Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)" is about the connection between people and their children or other loved ones. The song is inspired by his daughter Alexa Ray, who asked him what happens when he dies when she was about seven years old. Joel explains that he wanted to explain to her that she goes into other people's hearts, and she seems okay with that. The song is also about how families can deal with loss and find solace in dark times.
