 Abstract
 
 Many hadronic observables -- like PDFs,DAs etc -- are defined as matrix elements
 of light front operators. There is a serious gap between their phenomenology
 and Euclidean nonperturbative theory  (instantons,lattice... ) which we try to bridge.
The first half of the talk is about instanton-induced inter-quark forces, from charmonia
to light quark states. Model light front Hamiltonians and wave functions are discussed
in the second half.
