  • This music reminds me of camping out in the dunes of the desert. A barren but incredibly beautiful place. And we took Van Morrison with us.

    Great memories of good friends and fun/crazy times. We were fearless back then.

  • What a great job you have done with this video

  • sail into the mystic ... i don't have to fear it your gypsy soul what it is saying is I'll love you always and forever into the mystic which is my 'dream heaven'... i will be coming home when that fog whistle blows I don't fear it! Just let me go and together we will be it! Together with my gyspy soul and our bodies will be as one just like our souls!

  • awwwwww

    

  • Just call your boat "Wet Dream"..

  • Still one of the greatest love songs ever. Thank you for posting, and the beautiful montage of pictures. :)

  • Do you know what he means by "hear that foghorn blow"? ... its about the mystical experience of union with the divine.. The one time I heard it, I described it as a freight train.. so powerful, its beyond words, kinda like a foghorn huh? VAN IS HUGE!

  • good playing, i´m crush my hearth

  • morrison is a genius!

    been listenin' since the first album!

  • I know a Gypsy Soul, too. But it wasn't meant to be.

  • All I can offer is my sincerest thanks for posting this song. Please know that it has touched someone's soul at the core.

  • My favourite of all Van Morrison's songs. Thx :)

  • Just plain magic!!!

  • @mickeymousebiker1 - what a beautiful and heart-felt tribute to your wife!! Thank you for sharing that comment - I'm glad you have these songs to reminisce about your wife. I"m sure your wife is very much looking forward to being reunited with you in God's kingdom!! God Bless you ~

  • ONe of MY all time favorites......gives me goose bumps

  • My Gypsy Soul never found what it was looking for. Sometimes I have to sit and cry about it.

  • one of many favourite songs by Van. Love the pics! Happy Valentines Day!!! x

  • Any song is about whatever you want it to be..........

  • one of the best songs ever made

  • no spanstud it would not be too weird to play this song for the mother/son dance.i wish my mother was still here i would dance with her.im sorry i didnt dance with her before she got her wings & left this old nasty world.

  • I was high when I listen to this

  • Comment removed

  • ninnoseven-or a Glass of Good Merlot :)

    

  • Love this "Laid back"sound.... Perfect for sippin toddies and lazy sunny afternoons..

  • clintnicolan: I just stopped by to hear this song and caught your post. I'm so sorry for you and your dear brother. Hugs all around.

  • Would it be weird to play this song at my son's wedding (the mother/son dance?) He works for the Air Force

  • love this song right now my brother is clinging to life {stage 4 stomache and esophagus cancer} and this song is just one of many helping me deal with the pain and him as well. such a strong man drs gave him one to two weeks a month ago .

  • @clintnicolan The Powers in Heaven know what your brother and you are going through. The Divine Trinity will bring comfort and peace to your brother, to you, and to all of those concerned. Heaven is just a thought -- a whispered prayer -- away. I lost the love of my life (and the next life) to cancer on November 22, 2010. We were married only two years. My Barbra Rose and I had a playlist. This tune, by Van Morrison, was one of our favorites. It still is.

  • lifechanging and romantically captivating!

  • I want this played on my wedding night, just before we commence on our ''happily ever after'' =)

  • love this

  • does anyone remember the mistic juice brand ... especially grape/strawberry i was always well hydrated by them while listening to this

  • God bless Mickey Mouse biker. Try listening to Magnolia Wind by Guy Clark....if I can't dance with you, I think I'll just sit this one out.

  • @bamboozled58 Many thanks. I'll put on the tune you suggested. PS -- I'd love to dance with you, but, I have two left feet. All the very best to you -- W

  • this is where i go everytime i close my eyes and go with you as i dream of dreams with such beauty Chrissy!!!!!

  • @howdoyousleep1000 What a wondrous thing to say! Keep dreaming sweet dreams. They will come true.

  • This music takes me to a place from which I do not want to return from, the Mystic.

  • @grannynara Heaven belongs to souls like yours. Keep looking up.

  • lindoooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo!

    

  • I built my first sailboat partially because of this song. The first place I sailed to was Mystic Seaport in Conn.

  • @thepollywog1  Did you name it "The Mystic"

  • @grannynara I found out you have to be carefull on what you name a boat. Twice I got it wrong. I was a 21 year old hippie and we flew the all inclusive rainbow flag. Which now is being used for gays. The boat name was the "Rainbowt". My current boat I named "Amiity". Meanning friendship, but everyone thought is had something to with the Amity Ville horror movie or the town in Jaws. So I changed it to "Pollywog". Now I just doodle all day.

  • Absolutely Beautiful!

  • O love this, Thank you for posting <3

  • Maria McKee's version of this, recorded live in 1989,

    is one of the best things I've ever heard. It's on YouTube.

  • To me, this is the best version of this AWESOME song...although they are all good..

    Nobody can do it like Van Morrison...just reaches in and rips my soul...

    I want this played at my funeral..when that comes..just explains ME...:)

    Thanks for posting!

  • This song was played at my Grandmother Sue's funeral. You were so important to me Grandma, i miss you so much. Christmas wont be the same without you.. I wish you could see how much things are changing around here.

  • Blared this song and sweet thing one connecticut december warm misty fog morning, doing my ballerina stretches, looking for the chariot to come any moment... that was in the early 90s

  • He is the master, but... you might want to check the version Swell Season does at the Winnipeg Folk Festival in 2010. Not too bad!!

  • My all time favorite song!

  • Damn ! life has gotta be a blast otherwise wots the bloody point! :)) thoughts of loved ones that have passed away ....... thanku u make me the person that i am & i love u for it.... hugs always ......i'll c u in my dreams until the great slumber where we will be together once again ....& have a damn good party ...cheers :)

  • I first heard this song i a movie called immediate family, which was a very good movie about a teen whose pregnant and interviewing perspective parents for her baby.

  • What a class song... i love it

  • @mickeymousebiker1I believe that love is infinite energy, once your tuned into it its always there no matter what. Whatever awaits us on the other side that love will always be there for infinity.

  • @muttonshutter I sincerely pray you are right. I guess I'll have to wait and see.

  • The film American Pie - The Wedding had this as the "first dance" and this is a brilliant tune to go into the unknown with your new partner! Timeless!

  • Am dedicating this song to a friend, Toni Phalp, and to our children that we lost in 2007, David and Alisha(sp). Sad holidays without you:( Maria

  • My Ellie loves this ... and I love her so much, more than she will ever know :)

  • I never sign into youtube but after reading mickeymousebiker1 posts about his beloved wife named Barbara I just wanted to say how terribly sorry I am for your loss..How beautifully you expressed your love for her..almost made me cry. I can actually feel the intensity of your love. I'm sure one day you will both be united and eternity will be yours together for-ever.

  • @pattigirl1 Hi Patti. A million thanks for your heartfelt words. Each day, I pray/hope that I will be reunited with My Barbra (in Heaven) for all of Eternity. I know My Barbra is with The Christ in Heaven. May Heaven keep you always. May LOVE find you at Christmas (and always). A Merry and Hopeful Christmas 2011 to you.

  • take me back  please

  • This song is about those who God joined soul-to-soul, heart-to-heart long before the world's oceans ever rolled. It's about going home, good people. Today, November 22, 2011, marks one year since My Darling of Darlings -- My Heavenly-Resplendent Wife, Barbra, left this world and me for the unimaginable beauty of Heaven. Barbra -- watch over me until we are reunited (forever). You and I loved Van Morrison's version of Tupelo Honey and Into the Mystic. I think of you every time I listen to them

  • @mickeymousebiker1 so sorry for your loss. Zac Brown Band Free/Into the Mystic is a beautiful too.

  • @sfarnam Many thanks for your sympathies. My Barbra was the darling of my life. Before I met Barbra on November 15, 2008, I was merely existing. Barbra taught me about the power of imagination and infinite love. If, for some reason, I don't see Barbra in Heaven, I'll ask The Almighty if I can just wander Space/Time alone. Heaven won't be Heaven without My Darling Barbra. Others who knew (know) her will agree. I miss you beyond words, My Sweet and Eternal Love, Barbra. I love you beyond Time!

  • @mickeymousebiker1 I'm sorry for your loss. Barbra must have been an awesome woman, very powerfull too for changing you in only 2 years time.

  • @lauwelaurens Barbra had physical problems along with cancer (which came out of remission after five years). Barbra was (and is) a devout Christian in the truest sense. She started to bring me back to my faith in The Christ. Barbra taught me long-suffering, grace under fire, and the power of imagination. Barbra was, and remains, The Eternal Darling of My Life. I will never find anyone to take Barbra's place. Barbra possesses the only key to my heart-of-hearts. I love My Barbra beyond Time.

  • @mickeymousebiker1 You will meet again I know of it, she is watching over you, you will meet her in the after life, live life now the best way you can there are people are you that love you every day in your life. stay strong mickeymousebiker

  • @djjsprang I pray that I never lose hope of being reunited with The Darling of my life -- My Heavenly-Resplendent Wife -- My Barbra Rose. She was all I had down here. My true heart's desire is to be with My Barbra (in Heaven) this Christmas Eve 2011. A Joyful and Hopeful Christmas 2011 to you. 

  • @mickeymousebiker1 so very sorry for your loss...and i'm sure she IS watching over you and waiting for the day when you can be together again....slow dancing to Van....

  • @mickeymousebiker1 have you ever read, The Notebook. Seems you would enjoy it, based on how you wrote of your late wife. may your higher power grant you strength.

  • Van Morrison a poet definitely. I always loved and admired his work. He had a great many wonderful songs. I like this one particularly along with "Moondance." I'm putting this one out because it is not put out as often as "Moondance" and I think it is perfectly wonderful!!!! Thank you for this post.

  • This is my favorite Van Morrison song and your slide show is just beautiful with it
