Fogelberg foi um componente chave da idade de ouro do cantor confessional e compositor, juntando-se os gostos de James Taylor, Carole King, Jackson Browne e mais foco na transformação de música pop do interior após a explosão dos anos 60 do comentário social. Ele tinha começado como um roqueiro em bandas em torno de sua cidade natal de Peoria, Illinois, mas iniciou sua carreira solo, enquanto freqüentava a Universidade de Illinois.
Suas canções mais lembradas incluem o seu maior hit

CFmC Every morning you wake up alone FmGF And you shake up your soul, but nothing stirs CFmC So you take the love of whoever you please FmG But you can't find no reason for giving yours
CHORUS: F 'Cause once upon a time Em You held a love, so strong and fine FAbC That all the others simply don't compare F She's always on your mind EmFCFm6CF But once upon a time you had her there
CFmC Drive into town 'most every night FmGF On the chance that there might be someone waiting for you CFmC You tell yourself, you'll give it your best FmG Maybe settle for less, but you never do
CHORUS: F 'Cause once upon a time Em You held a love, so strong and fine FAbC That all the others simply don't compare F She's always on your mind EmF But once upon a time you had her there
