Michael McDonald has a unique voice that people pick up on after hearing him just a few times. Christopher Cross is great, and you are right about the balance, nobody overpowers the other. Even the guitar solo held back and didn't take over. I always enjoy your reactions! Stay safe and take care.
This girl is a rockstar and knows real music, vibe, connection. Young, smart, beautiful. Get into the music business if you already arent. You are an asset.
Yes Lizzie. That was Michael McDonald. Great song definitely and Chris can play his guitar. The two are friends. Sailing was as you mentioned also a great song. One of my favorites . A great one to listen to as your driving down through all the keys to Key West. What great memories.
this song was HUGE when it was first out--literally it was everywhere, and for good reason. Glad you were into it, great reactions and cool analysis too. Love your videos
I first heard this song as a kid while riding in the back of a pickup truck going down a dirt road. It was a special moment in my life. Now, 40 years later, I'm honored to see a new generation groove to this wonderful song. Yes, that's Michael Macdonald on background vocals. And...yes, the song still sounds as good today as it did way back then. Great work, and I could tell that you really liked this one.
Yes. Michael McDonald was on background vocals. He was everywhere then, including Kenny Loggins song "This Is It" and his duet with Patty LaBelle "On My Own". Have a great day!
I remember hearing this song for the first time in 1988 about 9 years after it's release. Great song for a request and I still like listening to it today.
Gangster hippie, ha haaa, look out! 😅. Too cool to have that beauty mixed with musical acumen, to see your expressions as you acknowledge instrumentation & Michael Mac, etc. Thas Chris blowing on guitar on the end vamp too. Awesome reaction! 🎶👍🏾
One of my favorite cruising songs. Freeway driving it kind of gets that accelerator going. Yeah that was when Michael McDonald was backing every artist from studio to studio. Great song...
On my road trip cruising playlist! Kenny Loggins - Heart to Heart is a smooth groove, I recommend to the reaction queue. It has Michael Mcdonald backup vocals like this one and was co-written by him and the one and only David Foster, songwriter and piano music arrangement.
Hi Liz I'm gonna just go ahead and say, Never Be the Same, by Christopher Cross, should be the next listen. Love your reactions. So happy you're enjoying these timeless classics. Peace & love. Take care. xo
Wow great song it really brings back memories of being a kid back then, you truly are an old soul you would have loved those times so different from now. Anyway glad you're back take care and stay safe 😁
ANOTHER CHRISTOPHER CROSS SONG 🎧 ON YOUR PLAY LIST 😂😂😂❤❤❤ 😎 RIDE LIKE A WIND 🌬, REMEMBER THIS SINGER 👨🎤 FROM ERA , GOOO GENERATION XRS 👍🏻 GO LIZZIE 😊😊
Such a great reaction! I really enjoy watching you. I don't think you've done Never be the same or Think of Laura but those are two other beautiful songs by Christopher Cross❤
Morning my baby, Nanna from Britain here again. Just want to say how lovely it is to see you smiling again. Your little smile lights up the screen & we're so happy to see that you're looking a lot better & making such good progress. Keep safe precious, we all love you over here. God bless always Nanna xx
When this song came out, I immediately bought the cassette, inserted it into my Concord sound system in my 1974 VW bug, opened all the windows, and drove way too fast down the Pacific Coast Highway past Malibu and probably played it about 10 or 11 times in a row before I drove home. Oh that feeling!
If u get the chance Lizzie, review his song "swept away". The strings are strong and is a very smooth song. It was made for the tv series "Growing pains". I know u will enjoy it :)
In your honor react to Joe Cocker singing “ You are so Beautiful” make sure it is the live version. Joe puts his whole body and soul into his songs. Thanks you are doing a great job
Wonderful girl doing wonderful and important things. Music is so healing! I wish i could share with all i know about it. I am a child of rock and roll!
@@lizziethegangsterhippie9291 i would love to share with you all i know about music. I well remember Chris Cross and nearly everything from early rock and roll through the 80s. So much beauty and love happened during those years.
Hi Lizzie, Great reaction to another smooth vibe!!! I guess I'll be another "Gangster Hippie" to point out that Michael McDonald sings background vocals on this track too...LOL!!!
Hey Liz! My buddy Christopher Cross, a bad boy in the 80's! F.Y.I. He won four Grammys in 1981:He was the first artist to win the big "4" categories in the same year with his debut album "Sailing": Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best New Artist! (Bad Boy!!!!) Yes Baby Girl you were right, that was Michael Mc Donald in the background... I saw that Grammy Awards Show that year, I was 21yrs. Well my Dear you take care and stay safe! Vibe Squad Out!!
Yup, that’s Michael McDonald. He was ordered by federal law to sing on every pop song from 1978-80 😎
💗😂 love that
...and the world is a happier place because of it.
lmao much like Ja Rule on every Hip-Hop song from 2001-2002 lol
@@goat1408 😄yeah, pretty much
And he was the fire and spice for a generation of great music. Even the thought of adding spice to the Doobie Brothers has held the test of time.
Yes of course that is Michael McDonald on the backing vocals. This is one of my favorite Christopher Cross songs. 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
Amazing!
Cant mistake that voice...yep Michael McDonald
@@lizziethegangsterhippie9291 michael has the best voice in the business
@@lizziethegangsterhippie9291 react to @Gabriel Henrique / I will always love you COVER
Totally, you can almost feel and see the horse he's riding, sweating, panting, galloping while he stands in the stirrups riding hard.... amazing song.
Album of the year for 1980! Christopher Cross is one of the most underrated artists ever
I agree but it is kinda funny that he won album of the year for 1980 but is considered underrated.
U said it!
This song will take you to another place in time and is magical.
Sailing is one the smoothest jams ever!🎹🎶🎵🎼🎧
It really is 💗
One of my top 3 all time favorites!

Can't miss with Christopher Cross singing anything. He could arrange the want ads to be entertaining. Good choice.

The very best of the Criss Cross's songs I've ever listened to along with the great voice of Michael Mc Donald at tha background.
One of my favorite cruising songs. Freeway driving it kind of gets that accelerator going. Yeah that was when Michael McDonald was backing every artist from studio to studio. Great song...
This chick ain't fronting. She's into the song.😎🎸🎶🎵🎼👍
Yes, a short story in 5 minutes. Great composer, arranger, lyricist and performer.
Yeah it was michael mcdonald on backing vocals yes and one of my favourite songs 🇬🇧
That was Micheal McDonald
😂 loved your reaction.
On my road trip cruising playlist! Kenny Loggins - Heart to Heart is a smooth groove, I recommend to the reaction queue. It has Michael Mcdonald backup vocals like this one and was co-written by him and the one and only David Foster, songwriter and piano music arrangement.
Foster has worked with so many incredible singers it's just wonderful.
Oneof my favorite songs
Hi Liz
I'm gonna just go ahead and say, Never Be the Same, by Christopher Cross, should be the next listen. Love your reactions. So happy you're enjoying these timeless classics. Peace & love. Take care. xo
Cross was a very popular songwriter for a lot of artists including Michael Mcdonald. Michael talked Chris into singing his own songs and wow
Your reactions are fire, immaculate, chef’s kiss!
Great again Lizzie

Love those conga drums on this track. hugs Lizz. girl you so beautiful!
Thank you so much 💗💗
@@lizziethegangsterhippie9291 Y W.

Great reaction Lizzie, and those contacts are something else...
Wow great song it really brings back memories of being a kid back then, you truly are an old soul you would have loved those times so different from now. Anyway glad you're back take care and stay safe 😁

I'm 67 and grew up with the greatest music. I loved how you nailed Michael McDonald's voice singing background. You're learning lol❤
Yes, Lizzie that was Michael McDonald in the background vocals ! One of my top ten songs of all time !
So kool to watch you discover this music .there is so so much to listen to ....
Amazing period of music, the artistry was incredible. Simple but the effectiveness the musical arrangement has on the emotional vibe.
I love this reaction. Your viewers definitely did not steer you wrong with this one! Glad it made you so happy.
Nice to see you back!! Vibe on :)
Those MM back-up vocals are surprising just like when you hear Lou Rawls backing up Sam Cooke on a song.... or MJ on Rockwell's hook.
You're reaction is priceless. Thank you! God bless you!

Try, "All Right" by Christopher Cross.... I love this song... Brings be back to late 1982, early 1983.... Great memories...❤❤❤
His best in my opinion ❤️ What we here in the uk call " Yacht Rock " ❤️
Michael Mcdonald has been a Music Icon for decades. The Doobie Brothers was awesome but he done some awesome work afterwards as well!
Loved oyur reaction, Lizzie! lol
When this song came out, I immediately bought the cassette, inserted it into my Concord sound system in my 1974 VW bug, opened all the windows, and drove way too fast down the Pacific Coast Highway past Malibu and probably played it about 10 or 11 times in a row before I drove home. Oh that feeling!
Love your reactions 😊😉

If u get the chance Lizzie, review his song "swept away". The strings are strong and is a very smooth song. It was made for the tv series "Growing pains". I know u will enjoy it :)
I just have this memory of my younger self after I first learned how to ride a bike. This song was burned into my mind as I rode.
In your honor react to Joe Cocker singing “ You are so Beautiful” make sure it is the live version. Joe puts his whole body and soul into his songs. Thanks you are doing a great job
