    People seem to think that Rupert Holmes' "Escape/The Pina Colada Song" is a romantic ballad but when you listen to the story, it's really just a song about a jaded couple finding sneaky ways to cheat on each other. You can even hear the disappointment in HER voice when she says, "Ah, it's you."

I've literally bought so much more music since y'all started these up again and I'm so grateful/thankful.

    In the movie RIPD Ryan Reynolds asks what’s up with the Steely Dan that was playing in the background and the lady just says, “it’s always playing, it seem to relax people”. That’s what yacht rock is all about.

      Steely Dan has nothing to do with "Yacht Rock". Get a clue.

      @@kbrewski1 Steely Dan is my favorite “band” ever. You can say they aren’t technically a band or yacht rock but the fact is that they don’t fit into any genre which means they fit into every genre incl yacht rock.
      They have blues songs, jazz songs, rock songs, and yes even yacht rock songs. Babylon Sisters and most of the Gaucho album for example. So maybe you need to get the clue bro…

      @@mikewritz They have songs that fit the yacht rock vibe. “Only a Fool” “Time out of mind “ “Peg”, as shown. I don’t get why some my fellow old folk are getting so divisive about it.
      Edit “Babylon Sisters”! Excellent example!

      @@kellyalves756 I ageee 100%. Practically the entire Gaucho album could be considered “Yacht rock”. You just can’t put steely dan into one category. It’s s song by song basis with them.

    Because of my dad, I grew up on yacht rock. So all these songs are bringing back nostalgic memories of my dad and I.
