Sailing was recorded in 1979, utilizing the 3M Digital Recording System, making it one of the first digitally recorded songs to chart. It reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on August 30, 1980. The song won Grammy Awards for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Arrangement of the Year, and helped Cross win the Best New Artist award. Produced by Michael Omartian, it features Tommy Taylor on drums, Andy Salmon on bass, Rob Meurer on electric piano, and Victor Feldman on percussion. In 1980, Sailing was released as a single in Latin America under the translated (en español) title "Navegando".
On the Howard Stern radio show, Cross explained that sailing with his friend got him away from the trials and tribulations of being a teenager. Cross said that if the guy had taken him bowling and he enjoyed it, the song could have become "Bowling."
This live video was recorded at Warner Amigo Studios in 1980 and featured a live audio cut (different from the one featured in this upload) for use where the band would be lip-syncing on television, to be more realistic than the missing orchestra. This footage has been digitally enhanced to HD quality and features audio from the 2019 remaster of Cross' 1979 debut self-titled album:

LYRICS
Well, it's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
Oh, the canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
Oh, the canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
Sailing
Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
Soon I will be free
Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me?
Sailing
Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
[Instrumental Bridge]
Well, it's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
Oh, the canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Really, believe me
Sailing
Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
ABOUT CHRISTOPHER CROSS
Christopher Cross burst onto the music scene with his 1979 self-titled debut album produced by Michael Omartian. The lead single “Ride Like The Wind” spent 4 weeks at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and was quickly followed up by Cross’ most popular single to date (and first #1 hit) “Sailing”, which later became known as the archetype for the Yacht Rock genre. In 1981, Cross became the first artist in Grammy history to win the “Big Four” most prestigious awards in a single night; Record of the Year (for the single “Sailing”), Album of the Year, Song of the Year (also “Sailing”), and Best New Artist. Later that year Cross released “Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do)” which he co-wrote with Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer, Peter Allen, and was the title-theme for the 1981 film “Arthur” starring Dudley Moorre and Liza Minnelli. The song earned Cross his second #1 and the Oscar for Best Original Song at the 1981 Academy Awards. Cross’ sophomore album “Another Page” was released in 1983 and featured the singles “Think of Laura” and “All Right”. Cross has sold over 10M albums worldwide and his songs have been covered and sampled by NSYNC, Puff Daddy, Avant, Shirley Bassey, Dione Warwick, and many more.

The beauty of Sailing is that it resonates with so many people, it can be interpreted as simply being in a boat on the water or as complex as the transition we experience through art. I have been very touched by the way people relate to the song. - Christopher Cross
Reminds me of summers spent at the lake in my youth near Marble Falls, TX.
Takes me back in time riding around with my mother in her VW beetle.
Unforgettable song, so beautiful! :)
Incrível amo essa música...viajo literalmente

I am 54 years old and had a heart attack 5 days ago. I had an emergency stent placed and I will survive. In my search to find calm and serenity for the years I have left, I was looking for music. I rediscovered this song today after 1st hearing it when I was 9years old. It brings back so much joy and calmness to my heart. It really makes the stress go away. Thank you CC for this gift.
Perfect song to listen to on your road to recovery. Wish you all the best

Wishing you the all best and lots of luck as well!
thank you!!!! love n respect!!!
Same to you softrockmusic
Who else was listening to this in 1979 and is still listening in 2024!
It did not come out in 79 but released as a single in 1980. Kinda weird how it was on the album but released as a single later. I know I'm being picky. lol
@@Primevals33 that’s good to know.
❤ just love this song
I am so wake up and listen with me
With a tear..some of my friends..gone
1979: This song is amazing!!!
2024: This song is amazing, unforgettable, classic and timeless!!!

Feel like sailing right now!
Yes 😌
Exactly
August 1980 was when it was on the Top 40 and Billboard Hot 100.
Every time I hear this song it takes me back to a job I had back then. I met this fantastic girl that I pretty much fell in love with immediately, but she didn't notice really. We went out a couple times as friends, I quit that job, didn't see her for months (I was 80 miles away) came back almost a year later on a fluke to that same company, and well, that girl has been my wife for 41 years now, two kids and three grandkids...ANYTHING can happen when you're not looking!! LOL
Wow! Precious!
Friend you made me cry. 😢
That's real ❤️ love
Thats class true love class
Amazing history to tell to your kids and your grandkids. I'm 17 and I really hope to meet a girl like you did and have and awesome history like you. I hate that nowadays most of the young people meet their couple online. I hope that there are girls out there that think like me. Again, incredible history.
I lost my mom in 2022. I close my eyes and remember her and just imagine her transitioning to the other side peacefully while listening to this song. This song speaks to the soul❤
As a black kid in the 70's, we traveled all over the U.S. every summer the day after the last day of school. Through all of the states and seeing many different people, this song will always stick with me forever. Still i see cows, the many corn rows, flat land everywhere. I Smell the air still. I'm a city boy from Cincinnati, but i love the country. Rock on bro!
I’m a city boy from Music City Nashville, 69 baby remember traveling them Highway’s Loving Thjs song 🤙🏽
I hope that your journeys then were of immense joy that have stayed in your soul forever
Da bambino viaggiavo lungo l autostrada Catania Palermo per andare al mare e ricordo questo capolavoro
What does being black have to do with it?
It doesn't matter colour, religion or creed. If you love music embrace it x
This boy owned the 1979 Grammy Awards. Christopher Cross is the only artist in Grammy history to win Album, Record, Song of The Year and Best New Artist categories in one night.
Yes I remember that night when he took all those and his songs sounded like nothing that was going on at that time. Phenomenal.
Wow 🎉
Did not know that, but i can understand why
I remember the night!!!!!! A great night!!!!
Then later he won an Academy award.
Let's be real, this song wasn't recommended to you, you searched for it, and because of that you have an awesome musical taste.
Yes Sir! 👊🏼😎
Absolutely 💯 😊
Yes youtube actually recommended this video to me just a couple days ago.
Ironically enough, I have attempted to find it (along with another one from him) in the past online rather unsuccessfully due to not really remembering his name.
I'm terrible with names of artists/musicians...
No but ok still love it
Thank you ❤
This is the song that always pops up when I am thinking of my mom. She died from cancer in 2017. I like to think she is sailing away in heaven.
That made me cry for your lose, I miss my mum so very much
What are you supposed to do when you're only 14 and you hear the most beautiful song ever written....
43 years later and this song brings tears to my eyes. I would give anything to return to that time.
Same😢
Me too😢
Love, return to Us! We know!
Yep me too 😢
Yes, it was so peaceful and just good. We had real friends, genuine laughter, just simple...
The 80's when life was so much better. No cell phones. We just lived life.
This song is from 1979.
I am happy for cell phones and RUclips so I can watch / hear this song on a loop!
The 70s were way better than the 80s, IMO.@@mattsmoo58
I agree i sometimes wish we didn't have some of the things, we have now
nop i was released as single later in 1980
@@mattsmoo58
Oh the 70's and 80's! Oh how I miss those days 😪. Those summers at the beach ⛱️. 😊. I'm so lost! Please 🙏 for me!
Born and raised in Newport Beach/Costa Mesa, Ca. My High School friend and I would drive down to the Fun Zone/Pier in his 79 Camaro Berlinetta with the T-Tops off listening to this. I thank God I experienced the era. You're not alone.
When music had purpose and passion! I’m still here for it in 2024!! ❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽🙏🏽
Don’t we all wish we could sail away from this crazy evil world we live in now
TOTALLY TIMELESS !
Ciao..da.by..gio..sss.primo.miami.florida.
so true, we have mad social engineers at play sadly, this song just takes me away for a magic moment
Yes, a one way ticket to paradise!
My brother's best friend was buried to this song. In 1980....... Rest in peace tommy
Great song for a celebration of life.
What year ?
Aww thats so touching 👐 wouldn't have been a dry eye in the house 🥹
Me, 73 born. Love the music from our generation.
The year was 1980 and I was only a 13 y/o girl losing my dad for cancer. This song was my way to escape reality. I miss you, daddy - one day, we will be reunited. ❤
God bless you
You will be with him again, I am sure of that. God Bless.
So sorry for your loss, sending you a hug.
I’m so sorry 😞 😢Hugs
I also think that we will all see each other again one day.And then it's nice when we can all hug each other. Ich denke auch das wir uns eines Tages alle wiedersehen werden. Und dann ist es schön, wenn wir uns alle umarmen können.
This song is four minutes and 17 seconds of what a little touch of Heaven on Earth would be like.
My aunt was flying home from Florida to Iowa and sat with Christopher Cross on the plane and he told her he was going somewhere to become famous.
This song has NEVER aged for me, and there were so many musical nuances in the music, coupled with lyrics that are like a gentle lullaby. My husband and I were both teens in the 80s, and he has always been a devoted metal music fan. I played this timeless song on the way home from Florida, and as we passed the ocean on the way out, he and I both felt every word and every note. He has been a Christopher Cross fan ever since❤
Here I am sitting. Its march 15th 2024. Just sharing the beauty of this song with my cousin who passed so extremely quickly of pancreatic cancer! Tomorrow her funeral!💔 Oh I know she's here, listening n watching as I move to this song! A song that means..to me.. about being free! Free to explore anything your heart desires! Like a blank canvas anything is possible! Dreams! Take you away from the world if only until we wake! So beautiful!
Hugs Adela! It's not goodbye! Its till we meet again...💜💫
So sorry for your loss! Stay safe! Blessings to you. Peace.
@@darincampbell171 Thank you!

So very sorry!
@@kevinogles4770 thank you!
A dear friend passed away last week and we used to listen to 80’s songs in his ford 1971 that he was restoring and he had installed a new stereo. We had good times remembering all these times!. RIP MARIO!
Each time we embrace a memory we meet again with those we lost. For the heart never forgets ! 😢 ❤ Take Care Friend
I’m 29 and this era and type of music is the greatest in human history
"It's not far back to sanity..." My mom suffered from depression most of her life. I used to listen to this song and pray that she would find peace of mind and heart. She then, has since passed on. So, when I hear it now, I know she is finally at peace. Songs can mean so many things to so many folks. Thank you Christopher.
❤sur une chanson comme Elle, la paix est bien présence quand je l'écoute,un pur bonheur ❤
I hope you too are at peace. Know she is well and always with you.
SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS MAY YOUR BEAUTIFUL MOTHER RIP 🙏🏿
god bless you
This touched my heart. I pray your mother is at peace. I can relate.
This is a once in a lifetime masterpiece. There will never be another song that sounds this unique or touches one’s soul like this one.
You've got to be trolling. This shits goofy as fuck
@@rice_myhyundai816 you must be young. You wouldn’t understand. The fact that you used the term goofy, leads me to believe you’re barely a teen or maybe like 13. My sons use that term while they play video games 😆
Try the song wildfire.
@@rice_myhyundai816Clown 🤡
Damn straight..Incredible makes you feel like your soaring to the Heavens..Peace and Love
Just an amazing song. Bring back the 70s & 80s. Great songs and life was simple.
The eighties.Great decade.Thankful i was there.
same here was in high school still makes me cry
Who're you telling!! PLEASE someone build that time machine QUICKLY!!!
To the person that reads this, I ask the Lord to bless them and their family, to cure them of every sickness and pain, to fill their emptiness with love joy and peace, to rebuke the enemy from their lives. " ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVE YOU, AND TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS, FOR WE GIVE THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN!
and same to you dear child of God
How beautiful and kind. I wish the same for you. ❤
😢..needed that..!!!.. and hope the SAME for u. 1975 baby. . I have this in my car. I love this song. Always ALWAYS WILL

Thanks 😊
When my mother was dying of breast cancer, this was my go to song and it brought me peace, calm and the strength I needed to keep my promise to her to walk hand in hand with her from beginning to end. ❤ Thank you Mr. Cross for this timeless and beautiful song and on the eve of my 4th year without her, I'm still confident and able to move forward because I know that she is FREE!😊 MAY GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU ALWAYS SIR 🙏🏾💕
Sorry for your loss. I lost my mom too...almost 2 years ago.
May she rip and you move forward

RIP to your dear mom!❤
Keep her memory alive as she continues to live within you!😇
1980, driving across the bridge from Somers Point NJ into Ocean City, this song playing on the old Buick 225, the sun hitting the ripples of the waves around the bridge and those "light chimes" that you hear throughout the song playing.. 20 years old, alone and not a worry in the world. Would drive back to my apartment, boyfriend waiting there to greet me after a long day at his job. Married soon after and did the same with our kids,, Life was good and still is, 44 years later. We hit the beach often in our golden years, children grown, memories made and still being made. Play this song when driving to the shore still.
I see it ..
Yep, back when young people got married and made it work. Same general age here, married in 1979 and still enjoying life together!
2024 still here listening to this beautiful beautiful song!!! Well done 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think Christopher Cross should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame his songs are Amazing and Awesome
Has he ever been nominated
Him and N'Sync both. N'Sync covered this song on their eponymous 1998 debut album. Both their bodies of work are neither too small or large.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
Indeed 😎🤙🏻
I'm 34 and I love all cris songs. It's calming and peaceful.
My brother died 2 days ago, this song is his favourite. His personality is beautiful,he was the one .. always makes people, friends around him laugh out loud. I will forever miss him so much. I love you Mas Rakabery ❤
❤❤😅
I'm so sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss, may he rest in peace.
Im so sorry for your loss 🪽 I hope u are doing ok ? It takes time, be good to yourself 💜 I lost my bro in 2020 💜 this song reminds me of our childhood 💜 stll miss him. Divine blessings for u n your family 💜
EVERY TIME I LISTEN TO THIS SONG, I GET EMOTIONAL. IT RESONATES AT THE FREQUENCY OF THE HEART. MR. CROSS REALLY DAILED IN ON THIS SONG IT'S A TRUE CLASSIC.
Simply beautiful. Back when the music was more important than the image.
So true
"WELL PUT!!!"
The way it always should be…..
Couldn’t agree more. The simplicity and beauty of music itself is stripped today for an image portrayed. Music doesn’t need anymore than itself
People were more fine tuned to learning music in groups (pooling ideas etc) back when this came out and didn’t have all the distractions of today. Wonderful song and performance.
I named my daughter Serenity after the lyrics in this song. Thank you Christopher ❤❤
wow, i named my son Ashley after the character in gone with the wind movie!
I listened to this in 1979 and still listen to it on repeat in 2024. The best of timeless music is that none on my children were born yet when it was released and they love it just as much.❤
It's1979 and the whole band looks like it. But Christopher Cross is timeless, he looks like a young man from the late 90s
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life. It brings me to tears almost every time. Thank you Christopher Cross.
Agreed, smoothest song ever.
Yes I agree and me too it brings me to tears ❤
It captures a place and a time I think we experienced in childhood( innocence, carefree simplicity)....or a place and time we wished we had if we didn't....that we are desperately trying to find again.😔❤
contrarily, for many of us it reminds us of an era where our parents were completely ignoring their children and going off and playing racquetball and partying with friends and doing other stupid Boomer shit... The memories it brings back are only of regret - wishing those people had bothered to be humans and not selfish Boomers for one day in their lives.
@@chouseification hard to believe it is a song from 1979/1980
I was 15 years old and spending the summer with my daddy. I spent 2 years taking care of him while he was dying of dementia. I would often think of these old songs. He passed on Halloween night of 2019. I've never gotten over it. I come here and listen to these old songs and think of my daddy. I miss you so much Daddy 😢. Can't wait to see you again!
Sending you a warm embrace 🌅🙏🏽!
❤
It is hard to accept our losses.
God bless you ❤
Thank you Chris. As a child of '71 this song has been a part of my heart the year you released it. Something guided me to look up the lyrics today, I woke up singing this...I needed the reminder. I got through so much in my early yrs and now I'm trying so hard to set sail once more. The lyrics seems like a letter from God today. Thank you 💚💫👆⛵
❤
I was just 10 when I first heard this song had the whole world in front of me… times was exiting.. My dad would always listen to this song I loved it. 56 now and I cry when I hear this song. Were did all the time go. When I pass on this will be played at my funeral for sure. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Working away from family is so very difficult but these old songs provide me peace and serenity. Yes, even in 2024. 😢
yep. now i work close to home
"This content is culturally significant. Posting it on RUclips will ensure that future generations will have access to it and appreciate it. Thank you for sharing it."
Why are you quoting yourself?
@@zonesquestiloveunderworld It's supposed to be a quote from the future. In 100 years they will claim that this song caused a cultural shift in the industry. Maybe Iit should say,"This content WAS culturally significant." Anyway in the future it can be settled, to quote or not quote.
Nobody sounds like this anymore. Its timeless.
The soundtrack to some good times. The voice of hope and happiness.
You have to appreciate just how tight this arrangement is. These guys were flawless! Such a beautiful song, and they more than did it justice.
This song has never left me...as a kid on our holiday trips to NY singing it with mom & sis......as a sophmore in high school, when my first love Tracy "RIP" would play it on her keyboard singing it to me.....as a 20 year old on the US Nimitz seeing Hong kong in the distance as sailing played on my walkman...and now as a 50 year old man..who's last kid has moved out.....i want only 2 words on my Tomb ..."Gone sailing"
Awwnnnn ❤❤🥰😊😊☺️☺️
Amazing how songs are the soundtrack of our lives. Well done sir.

My Dad would put on the Christopher Cross album downstairs when he got home from work. We could hear it playing upstairs while we ate dinner. After a long day on his feet, he enjoyed the tranquility, and it made me appreciate the solace of such songs. I will listen to this song to the day I move on to the next life.
Donforget to sail with Jesus
OH,JA,DIESE WUNDERBARE MUSIK MIT IHREN WUNDERBAREN MUSIKERN IST WUNDRVOLL,AUCH NOCH IN DER ZUKUNFT❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤,DENN WUNDERBARE, EMOTIONALE MUSIK STIRBT NIE❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
my 92 year old grandfather JUST passed and fair winds and following seas.......he LOVED sailing.....and this song will ALWAYS now remind me of him and the DREAMS he wants to me to achieve. god....cherish life and loved ones folks because it can all be over like THAT, sometimes you NEVER see it coming. Then, Carole King might have something to sing for you, lol. But seriously, live every minute of life, because the only thing certain we have is what we have, and it only lasts for so long.
The 1970's will never be repeated again. I get flashbacks to my younger years. It just gives me a warm feeling. Thank you Christopher Cross!!
Yep, those were the times of our lives. What a beautiful song.
Sailing was 1980. LOL
Couldn't agree more...wow..the memories....
@@bongobongo985Sailing is from his debut album" Christopher Cross" released 1979...so this song was indeed included in late 70's
@reygab3880 It is technically 70s, but it drove home the 80s. It's played in every 80s movie or anything that pays tribute to the 80s
RIP Steve Wright ~ August 26th 1954 - February 12th 2024. Thanks for the treasured memories on the radio ✝
Songs like that, just won't sop making me think that we were better as people and society back then.
And, before someone start saying things like: "this was just a song, it doesn't represent an entire generation."
I'm not only talking about the usage of music to speak about feelings, decent feelings to be precise. It's also about the whole world been amazed by this beautiful inspiration.
That's why I'm saying: people were better back then.
I listen to this song, almost everyday! OMG! You have to know the story, behind the song! Sill a hit in 2024! 🎉
I'm feeling blessed! 😇 Thank you for asking! How are you, today?
OMG! I'm a ga girl who loves country music, trucks, fishing and having a cold one sometime! My husband of 32 wonderful years, called me his little country cowgirl! Simple to me is better!
What Christopher did here was produce a piece of art for the ages. It cuts through all strife, all hurt, all pain. Its one of the most redemptive pieces of music ever produced and it affects what it describes: surrender of the self through being immersed in utter beauty. I think that this is Christopher's lived experience. Few can regift such moments for everyone else, but that is what he did through the miracle of his canvass. Thank you Christopher.
Beautifully put..I listen to it all the time
Listen to his interview in 1995 why he wrote this song. You will be surprised
I have to return some videotapes
My mother became very sick when I was 4 years old. We would be placed in foster homes, my brother and I. I would listen to this song and remember all of the good times we had. She has since passed away. This song will forever remind me of her.
Y como estas ahora y tu hermano te mando un fuerte abrazo ❤
Te envío mi abrazo, espero estés rodeado de una linda familia y seas muy feliz.
❤
So sorry to hear that you had such hard times ! God Bless
Hope the future is brighter for the both of you Stay strong 🙏 🙏
Beautiful song 🎧 beautiful lyrics 🎼
Beautiful voice 🗣️beautiful sound 🎹
Christopher Cross has such a unique voice. It’s hypnotizing. You can just close your eyes and get lost in it.

Life was simpler

I still cry when i hear this song. Not sure why. I'm 58 and it brings back so many memories i guess.
I'm still here April 2024 . Listening to one of the best..!!
Oh man I feel at peace when I hear this song. What will people do without great music. Wow soon I will be free I know that for sure I just got to keep having faith in the lord.
This song reminds me of my son who passed away.
He's now in paradise... Never, never land was not that far away. His dream and the wind was just right to take him far away to set him free.
Wow. What a beautiful peace of mind statement. God Bless you. ❤
❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Would love to hear this just as an instrumental
He's free, that's for sure. Same as my son, he was also looking for his freedom. Can't wait to fall into his arms again. 💞 🙏🏼
And when the day breaks
I will be the sky
and i will be the seashore
And the sea shall come and kiss me
Because I'm going home
Nothing that can stop me anymore 💕

This song is a "healer".This is definitely one of my go to songs for when I wanna do some healing even if just temporarily.😊
look at all the suggested 70's and 80's songs.........forget the music alone, LIFE was more REAL then. LIFE!!!!!!!!! GENUINE! god, these artists poured it out from the SOOOOUUUUUL!
One of the most beautiful voices and songs of all time!
May the Lord bless you Christopher Cross!✝️🙏💖
Are Puff Daddy best friend sheet?
The intro just maybe the best intro to any song ever made, and then you get the song. just maybe once again the best song ever made, it takes me so far from this place we live in.
Just said those exact words@❤
One of the most beautiful songs of all time
The memories...Released in 1979, the same year I went to the navy. It still brings back memories of being at sea. Oh how I love the ocean.
Oh yes! I was living out my romantic and adventurous years back then. This song keeps alive the beautiful times of my youth, stirring up old memories and releasing powerful emotions I will always cherish and keep safe within this beautiful and timeless song.
I’m 50 years old and I listen to all types of music everyday. This masterpiece is on my top 5 favorite songs ever. From the vocals to the instruments and to the melody. I can listen to this all day and never get tired of it.
Absolutely Timeless! and that's coming from someone born in 97'.
His debut Christopher Cross album was my first vinyl purchase of my teenage years. It has been with me through the past 43 years. So grateful for Sailing and all of the other great songs for keeping me connected with my most optimistic and joyful self.
I think I better go sailing

This song; the lyrics, the music, the vibe, is a total balm. It’s a miserable day today but this sing makes me feel hopeful and happy.
I was listening to this back in 1979 at age 17 steel listening now at age 62. Love this song.
One of the most beautiful songs ever ❤🥲❤️
What a pretty and wonderful woman ,hello my darling ?
My dad retired from the United States Navy and this song was edited into a deployment video for the aircraft carrier he last served our country on! This song has always made me think of my dad, 6 weeks has gone by since he made it to his heavenly home. It’s a daily struggle and this is a song I wanted played at his memorial and today it serves as comfort. Dad loves the USA and his Navy
Sorry for your loss
God bless you and your Dad!
❤❤❤
Fair winds and following seas. May your Dad RIP
so sorry for your loss. he sounds like an amazing man. its always going to burn but it gets better and he would want you to feel nothing but happiness. I say that to myself when it's really bad n my heart is hurting. it helps bc it's true.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Takes me back to a better time.
One of the most relaxing chill ass songs ever made, Christopher Cross boys and girls
The very beginning of this song is something that is out of this world
M Omartian wonderful arrangements !
Precioso 😊
Se vc voltou aqui para ouvir esse som Parabéns! Seu gosto é Excelente!!!❤❤😍😍
This guy got better looking with each passing year. He's more handsome today than he was in the 80's. And of course, his songs are beautiful ❤
I don't know who this beautiful man is but God is speaking through him in Isaiah 60 today in 2024, it's true! I've seen the ships and they are magnificent! God will come to you, wherever you are, you just have to believe!
The vocals, drums, guitar, chimes, piano, all put together makes this a masterpiece 😢. So uplifting, but sorrowful in it's beauty!
Absolutely 💕
Well said!
Yes well said my man...
As a black child, this type of music gave me out of body experiences the first time. Now, know how to😊 build wooden boats sold one the other day. Crazy
A wonderful story. We are all brothers and sisters under the sun and moon
I’m here by the Grace of God🙏🙏🙏 I wish we had music like this now well done guys and Rip to those that’s gone on to heaven 🙏🙏🙏I love you daddy enjoy your beautiful beautiful home in heaven I miss and love you so much daddy 😢😢😢😢❤❤❤
You make me cry…😢😢😢
When I asked if I thought you weren't my friend I just don't think I can bear it
Sailing to me is escaping a harsh reality and disappearing in a meditative state. Thank you for a wonderful song.
❤❤🙏
As I always say, music is the closest thing we have to a time machine. Period.
We are currently in the winter of our generation aka the fourth turning where everything dies to make way for next generation. When this song came out it was the summer of our generation when everything looked optimistic. Now you have a corpse as a President to represent the death of the American dream.
I agree.👌
@@discodirk48i disagree with your president comment. Perhaps we are nearing a new civil war and that’s fine with me. Willing to die for my black beliefs and final freedom. I almost want it. You and I have lived, seen better days but for us BIPOC, it’s not been fair and equal, ever. We as a nation move forward regardless who our president might be or we pariah. I’m ready with way. We can be friends or foe. If it’s the ladder…..Imma be relentless!
Taking a few minute ride back to our beloved 80's where times and people were soo much simpler and the world was our oyster
It's like he's tryna to show us something so special and elusive, magical right in front of us that we just can't fathom, because they all told us we cant
It's not to far to never never land,..no reason ,to pretend ?.....wind is right you will find a door a door to eternity...
Like on some peter pan shit..for reals
It's 1993. You grab a shopping cart and start heading to the produce section. Then this banger comes on the speaker system. Grocery shopping just became a transcendental experience. Today is going to be a good day.
When l was a teen living at home, l remember recording this from the radio with my small tape deck 🙂 l thought this was the most beautiful song ld ever heard.
A song of such purity and serenity that can take my soul to lovely places. I just close my eyes and listen!
This song is the sweetest most gentle reminder that there is more...
my daughter, as an infant, would always cry non-stop in the car. one day i pulled up this song to drown out the noise and she instantly stopped...Sailing and Sheena Easton - For Your Eyes Only were the only songs that would keep her quiet. She turned 18 this year and when i play these songs for her she says, "i remember something soothing about them". Thank you CC!!!
The voice, lyrics and the music..timeless..The song deserved the Grammy Awards for Record of the Year 1980
I think this song should win an award every year because it will never go out of date Its the most beautiful music ever made! When Im outside in the summer and warm winds blow this musick describes my feelings Christopher Cross and all the musicians get an everlasting stand of ovation ❤
