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!
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 !!!
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!!!
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!
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😊
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♥️🌹
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.
Such tasteful playing by that backline band. All feels....Love the drummers sensitivity....Playing to what the track needs....Those backing vocals.....Love it.
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
Always loved that song. True freedom is found on in Christ. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. We're all searching for the same thing in life. We look 👀 everywhere to try and fill that empty void but it's only found in Jesus Christ. The Way, the Truth and the Life. Savior of the world. 1 Corinthians 15:9-10, John 3:15-17. Much love ❤️. God bless!
"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.
This gives you a feeling of anime dusk where stars are popping out whil sunset is still there and they keep venturing on their destination in a breezy grassy field
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!👍🤟😎🔥🌹💜🌌
