Crosby, Stills and Nash will always exist, even if the members pass, their beautiful harmonies are legend. Funny, I am 69, remember when this song came out in 1982, and it is still as breathtakingly beautiful to me today as it was when I first heard it..
@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN David Crosby passed in January. In addition to CSN and CSNY, Crosby started a band in the 2000s, CPR, after reuniting with his son, James Raymond, whom he had given up for adoption decades prior.
Background on the song Empress Joy The song was written by Stephen Stills with help from Richard Curtis and Michael Curtis. In the CSN boxed set, Stills explained: "The Curtis Brothers brought a wonderful song called 'Seven League Boots,' but it drifted around too much. I rewrote a new set of words and added a different chorus, a story about a long boat trip I took after my divorce. It's about using the power of the universe to heal your wounds. Once again, I was given somebody's gem and cut and polished it."
One of my all time favorite bands especially when they teamed up with Neil Young! Empress you will enjoy listening to Crosby Stills and Nash singing live at Woodstock the song titled “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes” it’s an absolute joy to hear especially the live from Woodstock version! They are a mixture of rock and folk. David Crosby passed away in January of this year and the other two are still alive. Thank you for a wonderful reaction for perfect Sunday listening to song while cooking!
@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN Not a commonly known label of music. Yacht rock is a broad music style commonly associated with soft rock, one of the most commercially successful genres from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s. Drawing on sources such as smooth soul, smooth jazz, R&B, and disco, common stylistic traits include high-quality production, clean vocals, and a focus on light, catchy melodies.
One of my favorite CSN songs. The first time I heard it it wasn't just the lyrics that grabbed me, it was the way they blended their harmonies together. It is still on my playlist after all these years. Another of my favorites is OUR HOUSE, probably my favorite song.
I had the privilege of seeing them when they last came to Australia. Just phenomenal! I don't think anyone does better harmonies than CSN. You should listen to Carry Me, Bittersweet, WInchester Cathedral, Yours and Mine and Our House. It's a mine well worth following and you will not be disappointed!
One of my top five favorite bands. Stephen Stills on the right singing lead. David Crosby on the left and Graham Nash in the center singing high harmonies. Try Wooden Ships and Carry On by them.
Hi. These men know how to make a great song and perform it like they do. I think this music belongs to the genre that hippie people like .. and me too. Thanks for this Joy-Jean💋
Empress...this song IS Soft Rock, and also Soft Folk Rock, it checks both boxes. Mr. "Raspy Voice" is Stephen Stills and he has great power AND range in his voice. Mr. "High Harmony" in the center is Graham Nash, and yes, he has an angelic voice and incredible pure high notes and falsetto. ;)
If this is your first time listening to Crosby, Stills and Nash you haven't heard anything yet! Look for the song "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" Your mind will be blown
One of their last big hits and also one of my personal favorites! ate dinner at a table next to Stephen Stills and Kenny Wayne Shepperd in Shreveport, LA about 8 years ago; my wife knew Kenny Wayne as she'd booked him for a big concert a couple of years earlier so she went over to say hi and ended up visiting with them for 15 minutes. Good people!! Oh, yes, it is adult contemporary rock.
Please react to Time to Say Goodbye by Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman live in 1997! Such a beautiful song and amazing performance. You will not regret it!
You can call it soft rock. They also have roots in folk music. They're known for their tremendous 3 part harmony! I'd love to hear you react to more of their songs. They have a lot of great ones like Teach Your Children, Woodstock, Helpless, Ohio, Our House, Suite - Judy Blue Eyes and Wooden Ships.
Growing up in Florida, I was surrounded by music. Several local bands. I knew sound systems back then and helped with sound boards for them. On several occasions I got on stage for backing vocals. Bass/baritone. This song was always a favorite at local events.
Before they became Crosby, Stills, and Nash. David Crosby was in The Byrds, Stephen Stills was in Buffalo Springfield and Graham Nash was in The Hollies. Their first Gig was Woodstock.
Blue Water Sailing song with ramifications still being discovered. That southern island of the Marquises is the island of Fatu Hiva. Approximately 23 days form southern Mexico on a mono haul. You will arrive at the Bay of Virgins. Durning April and May the constellation Southern Cross will be symmetrical. Only place on the planet. A vector through the cross straight to the horizon will be true south. The ancient Polynesians used the Southern Cross to navigate to Rapa Nui. (Easter Island). Recent genome studies have shown that Polynesian DNA is present in Columbian and Mexican native Americans.
Genre? They transcend genre in some ways. Call this soft rock maybe, then listen to their version of "Woodstock." Then Suite Judy Blue Eyes, Pre-Road Downs. So many different things.

70+ here. I could swear it came out in the early 70's.😂😂 Love it!!!
@@user-mr8ep9lv1iReleased as a single in September 1982.
Crosby, Stills , and Nash was a super group comprised of 60s rock artists from various other bands. They are touring Europe September 2023.
They still sing? Good to know. Learnt one of them passed away this year.
@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN it was David Crosby who passed 😭
@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN Crosby made a career out of his ability to harmonize so well.

Are you aware that Judy Blue Eyes is about Steven Stills' girl friend at the time Judy Collins.

Time gets us all but they still sound good on this version but I love the version I first heard on the radio back in 1982.
This amazing 👏 ty
I remember seeing the southern cross stars 🌟 I realized it had no genre.
Ty again
The first CSN album was full of winners front to back. Put it on and enjoy.
The BEST ROCK group ever for Men's Vocal Harmony!!
A popular song by Crosby, Stills, & Nash. I'd put this in either in folk rock or yacht rock genre. It could be put in both genres.
Okay. So I’m just getting to discover a genre called yacht rock 🙈 I have a lot to learn about music.

You are right, classic soft rock.

So the lead singer (in this song) is Stephen Stills. He is also the best musician in the group...but together they are Crosby Stills and Nash!
Great song love the song great reaction by you again thank you so much for sharing this with us love it Joy.👍
Folk rock is this genre.
If you love voices, then CSN and CSN&Y are for you!! The Y is for when Neil Young joins them.
Think it's there best song!

Great song ,great reaction,sure glad you enjoyed it 😊keep up the great work
The high notes are sung by Graham Nash!
Stephen Stills has one of my all time favorite voices!!

I can't put my finger on it, but this song speaks to me like none other. It is my all-time favorite.
CSN and sometimes Y is Rock n' Roll band!!!✌✌👍👍👌👌😃😃
They mostly did folk rock. Some people call this yacht rock. 🤷🏻
You’re nuts! You have no concept of music.
Beautiful. Thank you Darlin💙💜💖
Its folk music. Very popular in the 60s. Great talent.
We just so enjoy seeing you review this music from our "Baby Boomer" years in the States. So glad you enjoy it.
just good stuff
Before they became Crosby, Stills, and Nash. David Crosby was in The Byrds, Stephen Stills was in Buffalo Springfield and Graham Nash was in The Hollies. Their first Gig was Woodstock.
Sometimes the genre is called "Yacht Rock".
Yacht Rock? Wow! Never heard of that genre
@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN Yacht rock is a smooth soft rock.
@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN Yeah, me either.
Cool song 🎧, I often play it in my Mercedes-Benz McLaren car. Great response as always. Thank you! Take care yourself 😊.
Thanks, you too! 😊

You're soooo pretty
The only label I can give to this song is "My Childhood". Peace/JT
Folk rock...
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👏
Nash sounds so much like Kenny Rodgers
Suite judy blue eyes. Also check out neil young. He was in the band CSN(Y). But they kicked him out the band cause he did too much heroin.
Stills is a Texas treasure!
Folk Rock

Genre? They transcend genre in some ways. Call this soft rock maybe, then listen to their version of "Woodstock." Then Suite Judy Blue Eyes, Pre-Road Downs. So many different things.
Note: The tempo here is a little faster than on the record.
Hey lil baby doll
You can call it folk-rock.
Folk Rock maybe.
Alcohol, Speed and Weed.
It seems you would be a poor mariner
Don't classify it. Just enjoy it!!!
I said it a year ago you are very beautiful 🤩
Thank you 😊
You are very beautiful ❤️
