Parent child relationship songs

These are sometimes hilarious and other times poignant - starting with the latter....

Written by Eddie Vedder (pearl jam) - vid by Willie nelson (who is 80 this year) and his son

Harrry Chapin's Cat's in the Cradle. Overplayed yes, but if that song doesn't bring out some emotion, check your pulse.
