One of the greatest voices. Christopher Cross had no gimmicks, no foolish costumes or outrageous stage lights, just his heavenly voice and guitar! This song transports my spirit to a higher plane. Truly one of the greats!
Man, I think his voice is so powerful live. He has many great songs, but the guitar coupled with his voice in this song is something like a perfect storm....perfect!
This is the best live performance of this absolute masterpiece that I have watched. I always come back to this song to being my absolute favorite song of all time!!!
É uma emoção gigante, parece que estamos levitando ao meio de nuvens com uma paz e alegria imensas . Penso eu em minha ignorância , que é a energia de Cristopher Cross.lindissma canção!!!!! Parabéns a vocês,melodias lindíssimas!!!!! É de Aplaudir de pé!!!!! Parabéns !!!
My wife introduced me to this song, and I still love listening to it. Can't believe it was during my childhood when he first sung this. Still timeless!
If you truly want to relax on a beach at sunset watching the sun go down, you have got to have Christopher cross sailing playing and the one you love by your side. The both of you dancing by the water just saying to this timeless song. I don't care how old you are or how old you get, this song never gets old. Chris put so much love emotion and compassion into this timeless hit. Thank you Chris for this timeless song, and yes brother I will be setting on that beach with my gf watching the sun go down having the tiki torches going and swaying to this timeless song♥️🌹
Such tasteful playing by that backline band. All feels....Love the drummers sensitivity....Playing to what the track needs....Those backing vocals.....Love it.
When this beautiful song came out I was flying to New York every weekend just listening to this song on the plane with my earphones on, looking out the window at the beautiful clouds wishing I was sailing with this songs. Those was the days.✈️⛵
This song remind me of the lake and my grandmother. God bless her soul. She died when I was lonely 9. To here this song later. It reminds me of so much resemblance.
"Christopher Cross sent our office his cassettes for 2 years before I even arrived on the scene.. We sat down at our producers meetings that we had every Wed and listened to the demo tracks. When we got to Sailing, I heard the magic of what it could be and wondered if the other staff producers assembled had heard it also. He came out to LA to our office and he thought Lenny Waronker would produce him. They sent him to my office and he was blank and reserved even after I told him, He was keen on Lenny. I thought the tracks were good. He went to lunch with Lenny who proceeded to tell him I was involved as a player on the Steely Dan records. He came straight back after lunch, walked into my office, shook my hand and said your my producer" Michael Omaritan. This album went on to win album of the year, artist of the year, song of the year, nominated for 10 grammy awards and won 3.
1979: We didn’t know what the new decade would bring. CC seemed to come out of nowhere into the radio just when we needed him. Those days are like a dream... Thank you. 💖🎶
This music catches me and carry me somewhere else. It always does. People sometimes try to convince young dudes to do something else, something better of their lives than becoming a musician. I wonder if an engineer could carry my somewhere else now that I can't get out of here. God blesses these musicians.
It takes me back to Mexico being a teenager loving this masterpiece without understanding a single word now is even more beautiful since I'm able to comprehend it, read it, sing it enjoy it. It's so soothing, relaxing, it makes me soooooo happy. It takes bad moments away...just sailing.....
This might be the most incredible beautiful magical timeless romantic song of all time!!!!! It’s breathtaking! It’s beyond perfect on every level!!! Every layer! It was written by God Himself with the arrangements and composition along with it and handed down to the everyday kid ,with the voice of a real life angel…….a kid name Chris
To whomever uploaded this,.... bravo 👏👏👏, & thank you, for I so do love this song! It's so timelessly beautiful & classy! Makes me feel like I'm sailing, every time I hear it! Anyone else get that vibe? Peace out!👍🤟😎🔥🌹💜🌌
The pathetic excuses of "vocalists" on such shows as "American Idol" who do nothing but shout can't hold a candle to true artists such as Christopher Cross and others of that generation . Very soothing, sonorous music.
how true! they over sing. I'll take Criss Cross, Michael McDonald, Chris Isaac, even Barry White first over those young, shitty millenials 7 days / week....
Great track from one of my favourite albums. My first date with my long time partner was spent in a small theatre in South East Spain watching him live- absolutely superb night, a very nice guy and very very talented. Ps we are still together so she must have liked him😊
The more older i get, the more i love this song...To find tranquility..That's it....To find tranquility.
Exacly. 🙏🏻
Peace and tranquility are thing that can't be bought.
Have you tried Pooping, in the Woods?
Tranquility is in the mind of the beholder. sounds good, just made it up.
@@horhaygonzalas3025 Thanks for those words ...
I wish you get a peacefully time
One of the greatest voices. Christopher Cross had no gimmicks, no foolish costumes or outrageous stage lights, just his heavenly voice and guitar! This song transports my spirit to a higher plane. Truly one of the greats!
Correct on all counts. Pure music, pure talent. His music sends the listener into another dimension, lost in pure music experience.
You know what, it strengthens my spirit to hear your comments. I absolutely hear you friend.
Absolutely one of the all time great ones. I'm 65 and have always loved his music.
For some reason this song make me very emotional. I cry every time
Shout out to everyone who keeps coming back to this live version year after year.
This guy in many music circles today has been forgotten about when they put their list of Greats together.
THAT STRAT SOUND!!!! So good, such a classic. Imagine pop music being this good today...
Those Tom Anderson strats are the most gloriously perfect strats I've ever played... unfortunately I can't afford one.
Yes agree with you. It's Classic. Beautiful sound & Uplifting music
Bogner amps 🔥🔥🔥
Great Cristopher cross...one of the best Malé voice ever 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Man, I think his voice is so powerful live. He has many great songs, but the guitar coupled with his voice in this song is something like a perfect storm....perfect!
This song is extremely euphoric. This is what I absolutely love about it.
I said once I'll say it again, now this is what you call a true bonafide Musician.
Escuto esta musica ha 43 anos e não me canso de ouvir.

One of the best 80s song. Angelic voice and wonderful music. 80s please come back ......
He’s a five time Grammy winner for his award winning songs “ Sailing “ and “Arthur’s Theme”
One of my favorite chihood songs. Brings back so many childhood memories 😢😢
Still listening in 2020 :-)
E simplesmente a melhor música romântica que já ouvi parabéns a Christopher Cross pela composição.
Música maravilhosa, leve, que entorpece o coração e a alma!
Me provoca uma paz inexplicável!!
Absolutely my friend!
Sigue vigente Christopher Cross me encanta escucharlo, lo escuche con Time por primera vez a mis 14 años
This song remind me of the lake and my grandmother. God bless her soul. She died when I was lonely 9. To here this song later. It reminds me of so much resemblance.
I love this song so much. If I'm in a mellow mood it keeps me there but heals me.
Always love coming back to this gem. It allows me to slow down and focus on this gift called life. Just listen and breathe.
A masterpiece. Enough said!
Intro such a wonderful tune leading into a great song, great artist☺
Only three days ago I stumbled on this song and since then I've listened to it for over 15 times, and yet can't be tired of listening...
That is what talent is. No explanation needed.
From college days till now, this is still one of my favorites. ❤️👍
Isto é simplesmente um hino 💥👏👏👏✌
Maravilhosa!! Ótimas lembranças!!
I remember this song when I was in grade school, I liked it then. Now I realized it's one of the most beautiful songs. His voice was like butter

Still listening in 2018. The pop tarts of today could learn a thing or two from Christopher if they want their music to be played 39 years later...
Love this song! Greetings from Mexico!

The pathetic excuses of "vocalists" on such shows as "American Idol" who do nothing but shout can't hold a candle to true artists such as Christopher Cross and others of that generation . Very soothing, sonorous music.
You know thats right. Christopher Cross is arguably one of the most powerful voices in past 50 years!
how true! they over sing.
I'll take Criss Cross, Michael McDonald, Chris Isaac, even Barry White first over those young, shitty millenials 7 days / week....
Great track from one of my favourite albums. My first date with my long time partner was spent in a small theatre in South East Spain watching him live- absolutely superb night, a very nice guy and very very talented.
Ps we are still together so she must have liked him😊
Hey Travler….Right next to you on this……It’s not far to Neverland…….Mike Sr.
Such an underhanded compliment. Do better.
Beautiful song,love it
