Both my brothers died in August and September 2022… Joining a third on the Other Side… I pray for them daily as well as two cousin sisters… Take care! Andre
Hey Andre I just read your comment and it got me thinking about my 2 brothers and how I would miss them if they were gone 😩So I hope there’s a heaven so you can see your brothers some day and your sister.Thank you.
My brother passed away September 8, 2022, he was 66, this was his favorite song. Today is his Memorial, I'll be playing this song off and on all day long! Love you brother 💙 Miss you
we used to sing this song with great sincerity..me and my coast guard shipmates ...we missed our loved ones so much.. Sometimes it was hard to sing without weeping, especially the words .."and when that foghorn blows ..i will be coming home" I lost my Dad to covid a year ago and thought of this song again
This is my mom's song. She wanted it at her funeral, we played it. She died at 43 years young. She was an artist. Her name was Tricia, she was my best friend. I will forever love and cherish this song. Sometimes I sing my heart out, sometimes I sob, sometimes I get mad... it has so so much power for me. ❤
I understand that I play lost in space by the lighthouse family for my mom unconventional no funeral I carry her in my heart because people just attend funerals out of curiosity/ Bless you
Beautiful I'm singing it for my guitar teacher.Treasure your memories my mom died three years ago I played Lost in Space by the Lighthouse family.Terrible to loose a mother I cry regularly I dnt care she was my life.Bless you
I'm terribly sorry for your pain. I know it. Though your mom, Tricia, is out of reach, she's still close - for a while, yet. Much love, tight hugs, prayers for healing, guidance, and blessings to you.
God bless her soul. Sorry for your loss. “ A golden heart stop beating, hard working hands at rest , god breaks our Hearts to prove to us, he only takes the best ! “
Lucky were we to be born in an age where music such as this was made. And so many more... i was young, beautiful and happy. And thought that we were all going to change the world, only the world changed us...
My broVince is 80 today. Marine n Vietnam Veteran. My baby brother Larry passed 2 years back. He would have been 74 at Christmas. He also a Marine Vietnam Veteran. Wonderful brothers. Semper Fi. Prayers for all us American Citizens. You all know what’s coming. We never give us. We remember who we are and this is our land !!
My husband passed away 14 months ago and yesterday was our anniversary. He was a sailor and loved the ocean. This song makes my aching heart ache even more. RIP my sweet one. 💙
I'm so sorry about your husband, @waterblom. I will echo your hope he will Rest in Peace. I think sailors are really special. They are so in tune with the ocean's many moods and, as a result, our very own Mother Earth.
This song my husband and I danced to at our wedding and still, after 18 years we still stop and smile every time we hear it come on. Some people said it wasn't a wedding dance song but we didn't care what they thought ❤❤❤❤
i put it in my Will that I wish this song to played at my passing (really.) Into The Mystic seems to want to draw us toward a mystic adventure beyond our understanding. god bless.
Lost my father 1/31/23. He was 72. A few days prior, a friend called him to ask how he was doing while in the hospital. My father said to him "getting ready to sail into the mystic"... I am shattered. I am lost. But I am not without direction or purpose. The foghorn has blown. He was ALWAYS about the song. I miss you, Dad.
This comment is dedicated to my great grandparents. Together for 65 years before grandfather died and grandmother 6 months later. Let their spirits sail into the mystic.
this was one the last songs I heard before my Dad passed tonight, God rest his soul. Can't tell you how heavy my heart is right now but I know he suffers no more from the cancer that took his life. Go,daddy into the mystic and be free from this earthly realm and know God has you in his embrace now.
Into the mystic from Van Morrison !,,,,,, me I am 71 years old and I heard it Again tonight with the text words and his fantastic voice ! Indeed it still touched my soul again ! 😥🫢🫢🫢🫢👏👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Catharina 🙏🙏🙏
My daughter loved the ocean so much. I recently lost her and I miss her so so much 💔 RIP my sweet Addie momma loves you so. I just love this song so much. Addie forever 28
My husband used to dance me around the kitchen when this song came on, and when we bought our boat, we named her “Into the Mystic”. For 9 years of cruising, it was so funny to see the looks on peoples faces when I said we were “Sailing Into The Mystic”. 😉
I’m 16 and I’ve been listening to this kind of music for 3 years. Van Morrison, Eagles, Bob Segar, etc. I hardly meet anyone who listens to this kind of music but I love it. This song means so much to me, fishing the boundary waters with my brother, dad and grandpa. Start up the boat and head into a lake that you can’t see across.
I've been listening to this kind of music since before I could comprehend my age. I'm 38 now and here we are. You either have good taste in music or you don't. Thankfully, we are not the latter!
I caught this on autoplay tonight and it blew me away! I'm jealous of you guys that got to live through the era when people were producing music that moves the soul! Guys like this, Fogerty, Cat Stevens, The Who. That era was MAGIC!
It is still living on.....just not being produved by the record companies and played on the radio any longer. Search out the singers and poets who produce and record their own music. They are out there and they are worth finding.... Better yet; Become the thing you seek
I was a deckhand on a cargo ship crossing the Pacific heading for Japan when I heard it the first time. It was playing on a Frisco station. Heard it again on Honolulu Radio. Such a beautiful song. It touched my soul.
I lost my son at 31yrs old...love the line, " I want to rock your gypsy soul" reminds me of the hours spent nursing him as an infant and rocking him to sleep, or just to soothe him. Priceless memories ❤
Wow, as I listened to this just now I thought that it would be great for a memorial service myself, then read your message. I'm sorry for your lost and wish you peace
44 years of age and never heared this song until today. And it knocked me flat out. Lyrics reminded me of my beloved wife who passed 8 years ago. God rest her soul💙
I have never made a comment like this...literally never before...but 382 people are just soulless or liars. This is one of the greatest songs of all time. Period.
I watched my beautiful wife to be walk down the white sand beach in Cuba towards me to this song . With family and friends there by our side it was truly a magical day Thank you Van Morrison.
The mystic of the unknown, unseen and unheard. The softest sound of nothing but the sounds of the waves. That when it comes.🤗🤗🤗🤗😇😇😇😇 Thanks for the share 👍👍👍
Lost the Love of my life at 28, now 59, still have a lonely soul. This song has me in tears all day for that gypsy soul I never got to rock. This will be my/our memorial song
I hear and understand the soul you describe. As I too, at 16 in High School lost the one I knew then as I still know today as my Soulmate. I'm 62 now. Ended up marrying a fine woman that I've grown to Love deeply after 38 years. Had and raised 3 children that are individuals to be proud of. A "Wonderous" life they say. My heart is content. But all my life there has been the deep loss and longing for the one I lost. I've been diagnosed with a terminal condition now. And all I'm left with ,as the final grains of sand in the hourglass begin to fall, is "what could it have been". Yes I believe I understand, Mr. Price. I believe I do...This song has been on every cassette tape(then) or personal playlist (now) since that time so long ago. It will be played at my funeral.
I know exactly how you feel. It's been almost 20 years since my gypsy soul walked away, taking my shattered heart with her. I guess we had different dictionaries; the definition of "forever", you see. As I lie on my back in bed listening and staring at the ceiling, suddenly I notice I have tears in my ears. Closure is myth...
My grandfather passed away on the 11th and this is the last song he listened to. Today my grandma passed away only 10 days after my grandpa I needed to here this today. God bless.
To an old sole, thank you for being their, listening, consoling, and being an unconditional friend, though you did not leave a heavy mark, the lives you gracefully touched, will forever change for the better. GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU SAM.
On the day my husband passed, he said I feel so good today...he had had agent orange complications, severe complications. So when he said I feel so good today, I should have known. He left me that night. He went sailing into the mystic.
I learned of this song a few years back. My friend Ron taught me how to play it on the guitar. Three of us would get together and play guitar usually once a week. Ron was a bit of a comedian and dubbed us The 3 stooges. It stuck. This was one of Ron's favourite songs to play. Ron was also an avid boater. He passed away a few months ago from cancer. They played this song at his service. Then the other stooge and I played guitar at his house one last time in memory of him. This was the last song we played. I was very emotional as I played in front of his wife and family and friends. I miss you buddy. I hope you're sailing in the beautiful mystic.
Every time I hear this song,,,,my heart opens up to my Truth❤ I think this is one of my favorite all time songs….That has ever been written❤ When this song was written,,,& he sang it ,,,It was from with an all knowing,,,❤
A beautiful man, a friend, husband, brother n son who's life was cut short was celebrated today after hard n fast battle with cancer. This I believe was his only request. I sang along, cried buckets of tears and remembered what an incredible song this on all levels of life and what a special soul my friend was. RIP my friend.
Tomorrow at 11:30 am CST my nephew Scott Shupert will go into the mystic as his mom(my sister) had to make the hardest decision any mother should make. He’s being taken off life support from a massive stroke. Keep our family in prayer. This was his favorite song
My step father, who was my father loved Van. This bring tears to my eyes every time I hear it. LOVE this song. He was an Atlantic City fireman who died two years after retiring. Broke my heart knowing he didn’t get the chance to do more of the things he talked about. After this , I said I would retire the second I can. Life is short.
Yes, I had the fortune to experience so many fabulous songs from a rainbow of soulful artist and at 77 y.o.a., to have had the pleasure of being a singer-guitarist for 4 decades (before the pandemic stopped me short) performing hundreds of these tunes that captured the times, moved the spirit, reminded us Who we Are, cradled our hurts and gave us hope.
Love this song so happy i grew up listening 2 van my late uncle used 2 listened 2 him n introduced me in his music my uncle was a great man i love n miss you uncle he was also my godfather passed in 2016 1 month b4 his 61st bday. 2 everyone who has lost soneone my condolences
How many Christians out there hurt from being told we can't do this or that or even thrown from churches by words of harm Christ forgive them but music is one of his gifts to us and this is a gift
My favorite Van Morrison song ! This was one of his songs I choose for my mom who just passed in February from dementia. One of the most horrible ways to go! Still having a hard time ! I can't stand thinking of how scared she must have been but couldn't express it !
I'm in the last hours with my mom. She has dementia too! And fell and broke her hip 2 weeks ago. And this song has always been Special to me, and it's so comforting during this difficult time!
My late husband told our kids that when I would play this and others that I loved when times were hard to leave me alone to chill. He knew me so well. I'm listening today for you hun. Miss and love you. ❤❤❤
Laura Romines I am so very sorry for your loss of your True Love and Husband. ahh..you must close your eyes, hit play, and you will forever remember your last dance-💔💐
Laura Romines that's beautiful. I'm touched by this song in so many ways also. now, when I hear it, there'll be you and your husband, dancing in the background
Beautiful for our Uncle Geoffrey at 90 as the Head of Our Family he is going into the Mystic today…thanks for always being there for all of our family …in Honour of Uncle Geoffrey thanks Van for keeping us going through this past 3 years aswell. My husband bought me a Record Player and your album…this is on it and it keeps me calm. 💙🦢💙
One of the greatest musicians ever , I can lesson to him forever . I lost my husband in 2020 , and everyone of his songs I close my eyes and dance with him still , thank you so much for posting . My sweet Lord thank you .
My grandma passed away one year ago today, and she loved Van Morrison's music. This song reminds me of her since she lived near the ocean. I miss you Grammy!
My Mom & Step Dad got me Hooked on Van Morrison when I was about 15. He passed shortly after that and my mom 3 years ago. He's one of my go to artists for sure. Hard Nose the HIghway!!!
My elderly mom NEVER listened to Van Morrison. Then, one day she absolutely fell in love with this song shortly before she died of her chronic illnesses. I played it over and over for her and it gave her great comfort. I think my Dad, who loved sailing and ships, sent it down to you in her final months to comfort, prepare and reassure her that they would be together again. R.I.P. Momma.🕊You are forever loved and missed. ❤
i heard this song yesterday on my car radio.. i love the bass playing in this song i also play bass guitar and tomorrow i will be sitting down and play this song over and over... i love it...
Thank you. I didn't know this kind of pain existed, losing your child. My life has forever changed. Life is precious, and you think this happens to others, not you. It happened to me.
Cathy R, I'm so sorry about your son, and about your deep pain. I dont know you but I"m a mom and I too cannot imagine it happening to me. I so relate with your words here. I hope your grief is not overwhelming but that sometimes, life still brings in the surprising joys. HUGS
Cathy R God Bless you dear. My son was taken 12 years ,Today! Iam so deeply sorry for Your pain and sorrow! This is a very VERY Difficult journey to travel. It alters your every fiber! Your reason, Your quality of Life! My son was 38 and gave his life for others. It doesnt make it easier! He left me with his three sons and it has been so hard for them! I wish I could say something to help you but We all must grieve in our own way AND Time! Ive had some rather cold things said from people I would never have thought! I must say you will prbly endure the same. Know that you must go through this ,in what ever way your heart takes you! Find a good support group and if this isnt your cup of tea, it wasnt mine either! I found ONE Person that I could reach out to,That had a true Soul and a genuine heart! She helped me! And I had and have a personal walk with Jesus! I pray you can find comfort in these simple words. This is a private club that you do not want to belong to because the Initiation is far to costly!!! I can see other women AND U KNOW. . . By looking into their eyes! They are one of your club sisters!!? I truely wish there was a way to reach out to you but may these heart felt words bring you some kind of comfort. We are all trying to make it UNTIL . . . We are reunited .God Be with You,Cathy R. Just Carolyn
Karen.. Thank you for the kind words. It is overwhelming, it's a phone call you hear, but cannot believe what is being said. They say time heals, it helps, but my life is forever changed and not for the good. It's a pain I must live with until the end of my life. HUGS to you.
Whenever I cry I believe I am connecting to God's Holy Spirit that Jesus promised us after his resurrection and that was given on Pentecost. His disciples and followers were no longer afraid and they left their hide out. It's good to cry.
Absolutely great and my favorite, so glad at 75 I found your music. This for whatever made me cry but happy now. What a gift I almost missed❤ this is my favorite so far. Just enjoying this music.
Babe, when I was in foster care, I would have been under 4. God must have done something for my heart. I didn't miss or cry for my Mom. I didn't know it was foster care. To me it was just a lot of fun with a good family. I was there for awhile I think. I found a letter my Mom wrote to my Grandma, a few years back. In it she said, she realized she did love us and want to be our Mom. I never knew until a few years ago.❤
We come to 7 years since my Dad left this earth 20/02/2017 miss you Dad so much, this song is for you, I made sure it was played at your funeral and will continue playing it for the rest of life to remember you. RIP I MISS YOU DAD XX
This song means so much to my husband and I. We were married just last May and this is the song I walked down the aisle to. He is my home and I am his. To us, this song means holding hands through it all until we venture into the mystic together (hopefully many years from now) 🥰
39...have heard and known this song...for what seems, my entire life. Beautifully. 3rd generation American...Irish roots...Boston born proud and raised
I fell in love with Van Morrison at the moment I heard "Domino" ... how could I imagine how many other beautiful songs he was preparing for us 🥰 Thank you Van Morrison for all the joy you bring us ... Love you so much 💕 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷
This great songs and bands in that time makes me so happy that they came in my younger days ! It would be better when all those young people now would listen to this music. At that days ! It makes the this world better better better ! Like reading and hearing poems with music! 👏👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🫢🙏🙏🙏🙏Catharina
Am from Northern Ireland, just a few miles away from where Van is from..when younger didnt really get his music, now I am older and wiser love it. Left home many years ago but the fog horn he talks about I hear in my bedroom when I am home, will forever associate it and that sea air smell with Norn Iron...Cracking wee song
Our daughter just got married a few weeks ago. She had been married before and we have a 12 year old granddaughter. She and our granddaughter walked down the aisle to this song (one of my favorite songs from my youth). I literally lost it. Just sobbed, as memories flooded my heart. A beautiful day it was..
In my mind the song conveys the idea that that life is finite (the ship sailing on its round trip) and must be lived to its fullest ("I want to rock your Gypsy soul"), and an acceptance of its inevitable end ("We will magnificently float into the mystic, when the foghorn blows I will be coming home"). When we get to the end of our lives, the house we had, the cars we drove, the things we possessed won't matter. What will matter, is that you had family and friends and they had you.
I'm 54, this was only slightly before my time. I was raised on this music thanks to older siblings. I've raised my own children on the music from the 60s and 70s and they love it.
Both my brothers died in August and September 2022…
Joining a third on the Other Side…
I pray for them daily as well as two cousin sisters…
Take care!
Andre
Hey Andre I just read your comment and it got me thinking about my 2 brothers and how I would miss them if they were gone 😩So I hope there’s a heaven so you can see your brothers some day and your sister.Thank you.
Truly sorry that is so hard to imagine, sadly had a year like that in one of relatives two sisters within 24 hours.
My brother passed away September 8, 2022, he was 66, this was his favorite song. Today is his Memorial, I'll be playing this song off and on all day long! Love you brother 💙 Miss you
So sorry for your loss.
Keep it playing, memories last forever
Sorry for your loss this is my favourite song Van lived around the corner from me in Hyndford street
Deepest sympathy I also lost my only sibling last year, my brother - I was devastated.
we used to sing this song with great sincerity..me and my coast guard shipmates ...we missed our loved ones so much.. Sometimes it was hard to sing without weeping, especially the words .."and when that foghorn blows ..i will be coming home" I lost my Dad to covid a year ago and thought of this song again

I'm terribly sorry for your pain. I know it. Though your mom, Tricia, is out of reach, she's still close - for a while, yet.
Much love, tight hugs, prayers for healing, guidance, and blessings to you.
God bless her soul. Sorry for your loss.
“ A golden heart stop beating, hard working hands at rest , god breaks our Hearts to prove to us, he only takes the best ! “
Lucky were we to be born in an age where music such as this was made. And so many more... i was young, beautiful and happy. And thought that we were all going to change the world, only the world changed us...
Yeh so right.
So very blessed!!! I love the music from my 50 plus yrs here ...and counting 😊
We changed the vibration of the Earth - the results take a little while, but it is happening through our children and theirs ♥️♥️
My broVince is 80 today. Marine n Vietnam Veteran.
My baby brother Larry passed 2 years back. He would have been 74 at Christmas. He also a Marine Vietnam Veteran. Wonderful brothers. Semper Fi. Prayers for all us American Citizens. You all know what’s coming. We never give us. We remember who we are and this is our land !!
My husband passed away 14 months ago and yesterday was our anniversary. He was a sailor and loved the ocean. This song makes my aching heart ache even more. RIP my sweet one. 💙
I'm so sorry about your husband, @waterblom. I will echo your hope he will Rest in Peace. I think sailors are really special. They are so in tune with the ocean's many moods and, as a result, our very own Mother Earth.
Love Van Morrison; listen to Cool Change by Little River Band in honor of your beloved who loved the sea. 🤗 🐬🌊
So sorry ❤
God bless you my friend 💙
Thank you to all you sweet people and your sweet comments to me. The world can be so bittersweet and beautiful. 💙
This song my husband and I danced to at our wedding and still, after 18 years we still stop and smile every time we hear it come on.
Some people said it wasn't a wedding dance song but we didn't care what they thought ❤❤❤❤
Hey, to each it's own....❤❤❤
Our first dance too. 18 years ago this year
I think whatever brings two lovebirds together is perfect for a wedding song. Even if it was Slipknot ;).
Amen
I played this at my husband's funeral! He passed away on St. Patrick’s Day 2004. He was a Navy Chief USN 48 years young. I play it every year. 🕊🍀🙏
i put it in my Will that I wish this song to played at my passing (really.) Into The Mystic seems to want to draw us toward a mystic adventure beyond our understanding. god bless.

I saw Van in Cardiff a few years back. I sat with my Mum, we held hands and sang along to this song. Beautiful song, beautiful memories.

beautiful song, beautiful memories ....
Van in Cardiff ❤ what a magic
This comment is dedicated to my great grandparents. Together for 65 years before grandfather died and grandmother 6 months later.
Let their spirits sail into the mystic.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed.
Agreed!!
yes, but of these lyrics are incorrect
Haha... yes, yes it is.
It truly is 💜
That's a fact.
My family needs prayers… all of us gypsy souls let us send our positive energy!!!
God will help your family @Theresa Googe
this was one the last songs I heard before my Dad passed tonight, God rest his soul. Can't tell you how heavy my heart is right now but I know he suffers no more from the cancer that took his life. Go,daddy into the mystic and be free from this earthly realm and know God has you in his embrace now.

From someone who also lost their Dad not too long ago… I know how you feel. This song is so beautiful. Sending you so, so much love… ✨✨✨❤️✨✨✨

This kind of music is 4 people with an old soul
You're what they call an old soul. That's awesome!
Been listening to him from the them days real music.
I've been listening to this kind of music since before I could comprehend my age. I'm 38 now and here we are. You either have good taste in music or you don't. Thankfully, we are not the latter!
Logie...Check out Nic Bings now ear this 2020 you tube mix over 500 odd songs ...this is nr 98 out of the 500 odd
I caught this on autoplay tonight and it blew me away! I'm jealous of you guys that got to live through the era when people were producing music that moves the soul! Guys like this, Fogerty, Cat Stevens, The Who. That era was MAGIC!
It was definitely one of the best decades for music. The bands and talents were endless!
'F' cat stevens. Traitorous ASS
Love auto play
It is still living on.....just not being produved by the record companies and played on the radio any longer.
Search out the singers and poets who produce and record their own music. They are out there and they are worth finding....
Better yet; Become the thing you seek
It truly does I'm so glad I was bless to grow up with beautiful music 🎶
As Bob Marley said “one good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain”.
I'm 51 years old.....1st time I have heard this song and I'm in tears
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to…
Feels me with hope. Hugs
This song transcends time and space. This represents my Mom's soul energy. She died four months ago at 97 years old. 💫💞

Glad you finally the discovered the beauty of Van Morrison’s music! God bless your wife.
I'm 42 and its my first time. Im totally knocked to the core of my soul.
God bless you and God rest her Soul 😘💜💚💙❤️😘
My husband passed 14 months ago & every night I play this song for him. I miss him. I am sorry for your loss
Same. This morning first time. And lost so many in the last few years ✨
I have never made a comment like this...literally never before...but 382 people are just soulless or liars. This is one of the greatest songs of all time. Period.
Morons!!!!
Miley cyrus loving idiots
I agree 110%
Or they could just be totally deaf! They would have to be if they don't like this.
A timeless classic. It just has too much soul this song for those people.
Who is listening during Quarantine
I am........
Me still thinking of a brown eyed girl iam 70
I am from Brazil
Here you go...+1
I am from Australia Blessed be all the mystic 🦋
No matter what mood I'm in, this song always makes me HAPPY. 🥰
What go’s in good comes out the same

The mystic of the unknown, unseen and unheard. The softest sound of nothing but the sounds of the waves. That when it comes.🤗🤗🤗🤗😇😇😇😇 Thanks for the share 👍👍👍
Lost the Love of my life at 28, now 59, still have a lonely soul. This song has me in tears all day for that gypsy soul I never got to rock. This will be my/our memorial song
I am so sorry.
So sorry! I lost the love of my life on 07...music helps so much!
You sound like my kind of man, what a beautiful soul you are, I bet she still loves you, wherever she is...and I can see why.
I hear and understand the soul you describe. As I too, at 16 in High School lost the one I knew then as I still know today as my Soulmate. I'm 62 now. Ended up marrying a fine woman that I've grown to Love deeply after 38 years. Had and raised 3 children that are individuals to be proud of. A "Wonderous" life they say. My heart is content. But all my life there has been the deep loss and longing for the one I lost. I've been diagnosed with a terminal condition now. And all I'm left with ,as the final grains of sand in the hourglass begin to fall, is "what could it have been". Yes I believe I understand, Mr. Price. I believe I do...This song has been on every cassette tape(then) or personal playlist (now) since that time so long ago. It will be played at my funeral.
I know exactly how you feel. It's been almost 20 years since my gypsy soul walked away, taking my shattered heart with her. I guess we had different dictionaries; the definition of "forever", you see. As I lie on my back in bed listening and staring at the ceiling, suddenly I notice I have tears in my ears. Closure is myth...
My late husband was laid to rest in the ocean that he loved so much. We played this song on the way back.
Beautiful!
God bless you for sharing this one! It is a real honor to hear it's message
My grandfather passed away on the 11th and this is the last song he listened to. Today my grandma passed away only 10 days after my grandpa I needed to here this today. God bless.
So sad, but I'm glad this song can give you some measure of comfort as you comb through your memories of your grandparents.
Bless you. I am sorry for yoir losses. May wonderful songs be a sweet balm to yoir soul.
I lost my Daddy, when I was 24! And this song will always be mine!
To an old sole, thank you for being their, listening, consoling, and being an unconditional friend, though you did not leave a heavy mark, the lives you gracefully touched, will forever change for the better. GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU SAM.
On the day my husband passed, he said I feel so good today...he had had agent orange complications, severe complications. So when he said I feel so good today, I should have known. He left me that night. He went sailing into the mystic.
I'm losing my vet also, Lucy. Your comment brought tears. Be strong.
hes waiting for u on the other side waiting for you so you can both float off into the mystic
He is still with us....always. Veteran '66-68
Everyone came home a mess. Just how things turned out.
God rest his soul, the US did him a great disservice. I hope he's now resting in peace.
greatest song of all time. the melody.... the horns, the piano, the bass, the drums... magic. just MAGIC
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to…
That's Irish Soul Music ,
I agree with you, Cassie. This song and Comfortably Numb are my all-time favorites. But please don't forget to list "the voice."
I learned of this song a few years back. My friend Ron taught me how to
play it on the guitar. Three of us would get together and play guitar
usually once a week. Ron was a bit of a comedian and dubbed us The 3
stooges. It stuck. This was one of Ron's favourite songs to play. Ron
was also an avid boater. He passed away a few months ago from cancer.
They played this song at his service. Then the other stooge and I played
guitar at his house one last time in memory of him. This was the last
song we played. I was very emotional as I played in front of his wife
and family and friends. I miss you buddy. I hope you're sailing in the
beautiful mystic.
I dedicate this song to all who grieve. I grieve with you all.
Thank you.
Same with me!
Thank you
Wow.
@trustnoman it's not. it's about coming home to the woman he loves.
Wow. It’s absolutely beautiful! 🙏👍
Every time I hear this song,,,,my heart opens up to my Truth❤
I think this is one of my favorite all time songs….That has ever been written❤
When this song was written,,,& he sang it ,,,It was from with an all knowing,,,❤
❤
A beautiful man, a friend, husband, brother n son who's life was cut short was celebrated today after hard n fast battle with cancer. This I believe was his only request. I sang along, cried buckets of tears and remembered what an incredible song this on all levels of life and what a special soul my friend was. RIP my friend.
Tomorrow at 11:30 am CST my nephew Scott Shupert will go into the mystic as his mom(my sister) had to make the hardest decision any mother should make. He’s being taken off life support from a massive stroke. Keep our family in prayer. This was his favorite song
Sending prayers to God to take good care of Scott.🙏
Had to listen to this today Van ❤❤❤
My step father, who was my father loved Van. This bring tears to my eyes every time I hear it. LOVE this song. He was an Atlantic City fireman who died two years after retiring. Broke my heart knowing he didn’t get the chance to do more of the things he talked about. After this , I said I would retire the second I can. Life is short.
like a snap of a finger
Art you got that right!
Yes, I had the fortune to experience so many fabulous songs from a rainbow of soulful artist and at 77 y.o.a., to have had the pleasure of being a singer-guitarist for 4 decades (before the pandemic stopped me short) performing hundreds of these tunes that captured the times, moved the spirit, reminded us Who we Are, cradled our hurts and gave us hope.
Love this song so happy i grew up listening 2 van my late uncle used 2 listened 2 him n introduced me in his music my uncle was a great man i love n miss you uncle he was also my godfather passed in 2016 1 month b4 his 61st bday. 2 everyone who has lost soneone my condolences

So true.
Amen praise the lord
What about when over 20 years later your heart aches for the ones you lost?
@@nygirl7195 Exactly it’s terrible!
Amen.
One my late wife's favorite songs. Seven years gone.
I miss her.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
If this song reminds you of her, she must have been a beautiful person. Sorry for your loss. Peace.
Thank you.
@@larryps ciao Larry! Come stai? 😍❤️🍀
How many Christians out there hurt from being told we can't do this or that or even thrown from churches by words of harm Christ forgive them but music is one of his gifts to us and this is a gift
I hope anyone who hears this with Live this song. Breathe it, feel it, do not let it pass you by.
My favorite Van Morrison song ! This was one of his songs I choose for my mom who just passed in February from dementia. One of the most horrible ways to go! Still having a hard time ! I can't stand thinking of how scared she must have been but couldn't express it !
My mother too. It was like watching a person stuck within themselves being tortured by their own mind. Hugs
I'm in the last hours with my mom. She has dementia too! And fell and broke her hip 2 weeks ago. And this song has always been Special to me, and it's so comforting during this difficult time!
Prayers for you and your family.🙏lost my mother in 2011 and still not over it.
God bless you and your mother too. I'm so sorry for your loss.
I hope that you're feeling better
God Bless ❤️
My late husband told our kids that when I would play this and others that I loved when times were hard to leave me alone to chill. He knew me so well. I'm listening today for you hun. Miss and love you. ❤❤❤
last song I danced to with my husband. he passed away almost a year ago. we had been together since senior year of H.S. 1977.
Laura Romines I am so very sorry for your loss of your True Love and Husband. ahh..you must close your eyes, hit play, and you will forever remember your last dance-💔💐
Laura Romines that's beautiful. I'm touched by this song in so many ways also. now, when I hear it, there'll be you and your husband, dancing in the background
Laura Romines Prayers ✝🛐....
when I get married again I want this song to be the first song played
I bet he was an amazing man. I hope you're happy in your life now.
Beautiful for our Uncle Geoffrey at 90 as the Head of Our Family he is going into the Mystic today…thanks for always being there for all of our family …in Honour of Uncle Geoffrey thanks Van for keeping us going through this past 3 years aswell. My husband bought me a Record Player and your album…this is on it and it keeps me calm.

I lost the love of my life in 2012. May beautiful memories bring you comfort, Jamie 💙
This song both makes my heart feel an immense amount of pain and a unreal kind of happiness.
Yes, it does!
And a longing for something I've apparently missed!
You put what I feel when I hear this song into the most simple yet perfectly eloquent words
Princess Diana of Themyscira I’ll second that!
Exactly!
One of my Daddy’s favorites. Played at his memory. He’s been gone 7 years today. Got miss him and love him still.
One of life's greatest blessings was to be alive during the era when such sublime music was being created.
My grandma passed away one year ago today, and she loved Van Morrison's music. This song reminds me of her since she lived near the ocean. I miss you Grammy!
Sorry for your loss...
You’re not the only one listening to this masterpiece in 2021
Even in my darkest times this song always makes me feel like everything will be alright
This song makes you wanna dance wherever you are at. Best music ever
My Mom & Step Dad got me Hooked on Van Morrison when I was about 15. He passed shortly after that and my mom 3 years ago. He's one of my go to artists for sure. Hard Nose the HIghway!!!
My elderly mom NEVER listened to Van Morrison. Then, one day she absolutely fell in love with this song shortly before she died of her chronic illnesses. I played it over and over for her and it gave her great comfort. I think my Dad, who loved sailing and ships, sent it down to you in her final months to comfort, prepare and reassure her that they would be together again. R.I.P. Momma.🕊You are forever loved and missed. ❤
I worry about my mom too, mother's are the best 😢.
Your mom must have been really good to you......
Such a soulful song. Just every part of it is magical!
i heard this song yesterday on my car radio.. i love the bass playing in this song i also play bass guitar and tomorrow i will be sitting down and play this song over and over... i love it...
My 35 yr old son passed then end of January, with the slide show of his life at his funeral, I chose this song. It was tough, but I love this song.
It is a beautiful song. I am so sorry for your loss.
Thank you. I didn't know this kind of pain existed, losing your child. My life has forever changed. Life is precious, and you think this happens to others, not you. It happened to me.
Cathy R, I'm so sorry about your son, and about your deep pain. I dont know you but I"m a mom and I too cannot imagine it happening to me. I so relate with your words here. I hope your grief is not overwhelming but that sometimes, life still brings in the surprising joys. HUGS
Cathy R God Bless you dear. My son was taken 12 years ,Today! Iam so deeply sorry for Your pain and sorrow! This is a very VERY Difficult journey to travel. It alters your every fiber! Your reason, Your quality of Life! My son was 38 and gave his life for others. It doesnt make it easier! He left me with his three sons and it has been so hard for them! I wish I could say something to help you but We all must grieve in our own way AND Time! Ive had some rather cold things said from people I would never have thought! I must say you will prbly endure the same. Know that you must go through this ,in what ever way your heart takes you! Find a good support group and if this isnt your cup of tea, it wasnt mine either! I found ONE Person that I could reach out to,That had a true Soul and a genuine heart! She helped me! And I had and have a personal walk with Jesus! I pray you can find comfort in these simple words. This is a private club that you do not want to belong to because the Initiation is far to costly!!! I can see other women AND U KNOW. . . By looking into their eyes! They are one of your club sisters!!? I truely wish there was a way to reach out to you but may these heart felt words bring you some kind of comfort. We are all trying to make it UNTIL . . . We are reunited .God Be with You,Cathy R. Just Carolyn
Karen.. Thank you for the kind words. It is overwhelming, it's a phone call you hear, but cannot believe what is being said. They say time heals, it helps, but my life is forever changed and not for the good. It's a pain I must live with until the end of my life. HUGS to you.
I don't know why this song makes me cry so much!!.. beautiful lyrics
This song was played at my wedding and will be played at my funeral.
Whenever I cry I believe I am connecting to God's Holy Spirit that Jesus promised us after his resurrection and that was given on Pentecost.
His disciples and followers were no longer afraid and they left their hide out. It's good to cry.
Absolutely great and my favorite, so glad at 75 I found your music. This for whatever made me cry but happy now. What a gift I almost missed❤ this is my favorite so far. Just enjoying this music.
When you really feel it... it goes deep.❤❤❤
This song was played at my wedding and will be played at my funeral.
Babe, when I was in foster care, I would have been under 4. God must have done something for my heart. I didn't miss or cry for my Mom. I didn't know it was foster care. To me it was just a lot of fun with a good family. I was there for awhile I think. I found a letter my Mom wrote to my Grandma, a few years back. In it she said, she realized she did love us and want to be our Mom. I never knew until a few years ago.❤
We come to 7 years since my Dad left this earth 20/02/2017 miss you Dad so much, this song is for you, I made sure it was played at your funeral and will continue playing it for the rest of life to remember you. RIP I MISS YOU DAD XX
We played this at my Dad’s funeral, love this song, it will definitely be played at mine!!
This is by far my favorite song ever!!!! Anyone agree?? 🎶🎶🎶🎶😊
Nice one , actually I’m really depressed right now, lost a coworker. very devastating , Needed someone to talk to..
I absolutely love this song 🤩❤️❤️❤️❤️
If this beautiful song isn't played at my funeral...Im going to be upset
This has to be the loveliest songs I've ever heard
❤ lol
This song means so much to my husband and I. We were married just last May and this is the song I walked down the aisle to. He is my home and I am his. To us, this song means holding hands through it all until we venture into the mystic together (hopefully many years from now) 🥰
39...have heard and known this song...for what seems, my entire life. Beautifully. 3rd generation American...Irish roots...Boston born proud and raised
I fell in love with Van Morrison at the moment I heard "Domino" ... how could I imagine how many other beautiful songs he was preparing for us 🥰 Thank you Van Morrison for all the joy you bring us ... Love you so much 💕 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷
He was such an amazing and heartwarming singer......how are you doing @Gisleine Leite
To all whom have lost loved ones, my sincere condolences,💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏🙏 and may the memories of them give you comfort in this beautiful song ❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹
Thank you❤️😘🌻✨
❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨✨
Something about this song. It is magical. It takes you back to where I was when I first heard it. Great memories.
I think that this song is the best songs Van Morrison ever made 😢😔😊 I always feel like crying when I hear it 😔😢
Van Morrison is food for the soul. His music has been a constant source of peace during this pandemic. I thank him from my heart. Mandy in Cape Town.
Hello @Mandy Johnson
This great songs and bands in that time makes me so happy that they came in my younger days ! It would be better when all those young people now would listen to this music. At that days ! It makes the this world better better better ! Like reading and hearing poems with music! 👏👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🫢🙏🙏🙏🙏Catharina
I shed tears every time I hear this song, but only by Van Morrison.
Am from Northern Ireland, just a few miles away from where Van is from..when younger didnt really get his music, now I am older and wiser love it. Left home many years ago but the fog horn he talks about I hear in my bedroom when I am home, will forever associate it and that sea air smell with Norn Iron...Cracking wee song
Beautiful. Perfect. Makes me cry. Every time.
Thanks Megan Beautiful song and my favorite Van Morrison song
I don't know why this song makes me cry so much!!.. beautiful lyrics
CJ Medina because it touches your soul...
M&M Medina Makeup me too...but its a soothing emotional cry.
Me too...love lost...the hardest trial of this experience called life..
Maybe it rocks your Gypsy soul 😉
I cut too
How fortunate we all are to be able to enjoy this beautiful music by Van Morrison.
Our daughter just got married a few weeks ago. She had been married before and we have a 12 year old granddaughter. She and our granddaughter walked down the aisle to this song (one of my favorite songs from my youth).
I literally lost it. Just sobbed, as memories flooded my heart.
A beautiful day it was..
💞
That is beautiful. That's life!!
In my mind the song conveys the idea that that life is finite (the ship sailing on its round trip) and must be lived to its fullest ("I want to rock your Gypsy soul"), and an acceptance of its inevitable end ("We will magnificently float into the mystic, when the foghorn blows I will be coming home"). When we get to the end of our lives, the house we had, the cars we drove, the things we possessed won't matter. What will matter, is that you had family and friends and they had you.
Pure poetry
we sail into the mystic everyday we awake...
I Honestly believe that Music has the power to Unite the Masses.
@@nygirl7195 There are certain song-writers who I consider poets. Van Morrison and Paul Simon are among them.
@@helenemichell458 I have been finding a lot of comfort and peace in their music lately. I even made a list of artists and songs.
I'm 54, this was only slightly before my time. I was raised on this music thanks to older siblings. I've raised my own children on the music from the 60s and 70s and they love it.
We're all going into the Mystic, as we all believe it to be. Rock our Mystic souls, and believe. There's a Heaven for ALL, if you LOVE MUSIC! ❤❤
