  • Was working in Newport R.I. and saw a tall ship sliding along and heard this song at the same time it was awesome.

  • @batmanyey Me too :) to Beautiful, Warm, Sandy places....

  • This song reminds me of one of the best times in my life. I was with my grandparents going to Atlanta to see my Uncle. My mom/sister was already there at his house when we pulled up. When we got out of the car they had a radio outside. As soon as I shut the door this song came on. Everyone that I have ever loved was within arms reach. My grandparents & aunt has now passed away but every time I hear this song I think back to that day. What a precious memory this song brings back.

  • 126 people have no soul....

  • This song fills me with emotion and I feel a tug on my heart as it begins. This song with this video makes me think of being by the side of someone who is dying and this song would be playing. The pictures look like heaven. The lyrics are fitting.

  • omg just cant stop playing it

  • think this is great love it

  • its not far to neverneverland we breathe it ever moment dust in the wind is all we really r/

  • LOVE THIS TOO MUCH!

  • I've always liked this. Listened to it quite a bit when it first came out around 1980. I think you can classify the rhythm as "hypnotic", so before you go out and refill your Quaalude prescription, try this (just kidding - I for sure am not an advocate of chemical use, but I guess we can joke about it).

  • there is a GOD

  • I dont know how people cannot like this song!!!

    Its so calming and beautiful:)

  • @jamesmarquez23 thats true

  • I aber with Sooners998 - I once drove a secruity guard mad by playing this none stop one evening whilst doing an all night stock take. He could not understand that a record shop manager who had millions of songs at her disposal only played one.

  • This song reminds me of my dad, he loves this album.

    Haven't seen in a while...

  • 124 dislikes wants to sail in the middle of desert barefoot,

  • Chef d oeuvre ,musique envoutante qui arrache les tripes jusqu au fond du coeur ,triste et magnifique a la fois ,qui fait pleurer et rever a la fois ,cette vidéo me fait encore plus aimé la mer ,et me faire comprendre les passionnes de la mer que leurs cendres a leur mort soit disperses en mer ,mon souhait aussi ,la grande bleu que l on devrait respecter et preserves ,honte a ceux qui la polluent et sallissent

  • increible muy romantica .:)

  • Reminds me of riding my horses....just simple happy epic joy. Step away from business, life, other people and just ride with the wind in my hair and sweet nothingness.

  • i love sandwiches

  • 124 dislikes are idiots

  • Ive never sailed. But im a sailor ! I sail!" Me the wind the air the open sea! Im sailing! I sail!" What about BOB? I now would very much like to sail through this song again and again!!!!!

  • I was looking for Wham and I had the thought - yes, I have to listen to Cross too - wonderful - nice video - so I sail - byè````

  • bravooooo!

    

  • "Just a few hours from paradise".

  • I want to sail away from all of this world's violence, hatred and misery. Just sail away in a state of peacefulness and imagination. Such a meaningful and beautiful song.

  • One of best of the 80's. Brings back memories.

  • This song always lifts my spirits.When i need to escape i just listen and think about being on the water again where i grew up in Louisiana.

  • Canzone Divina!!!!!

  • *sigh* this song... like a breath of fresh air!

  • This has to be one of the most beautiful songs to have ever been written. I have always absolutely loved this one. When I listen to this song, I do feel like I am sailing away and I feel alive in my heart and soul again just as I did in my youth. This is a very powerful song here. You can feel all emotions when you listen to it. Christopher Cross really outdid himself here. He made a masterpiece that is a timeless peice of music. A real classic that is exceptionally gorgeous. I love it! :-) <3

  • @thecarebearhideaway thats how i feel its great

  • @mynameissue100 Yeah it really is! :-) Thanks for such a kind comment! :-)

  • I agree... totally.

  • @csarrodelo Thanks so much! :-)

  • @thecarebearhideaway ...Hello my friend. You're right about being one of the most beautifully written songs ever. This is pure magic! It also has the distinction of reminding me of a Portagee girl I was dating when this song hit the charts some 30 yrs ago. Many times together we would sit by the waters edge in the San Francisco Bay, with the haunting Alcatraz Island as a backdrop and watch the sailboats go whizzing under the Golden Gate.Yup, this was our song. ..."Jagar"

  • @ausfuhrpramienjagar Wowie Jagar! That is a totally awesome beautiful memory you have there. Man it is those special moments in life that really count, dont they? I have alot of beautiful memories of very special times in my life and I wouldnt trade them for anything. Thanks so much for sharing your special memory with me. I am honored! And yes, this song is pure magic and absolutely beautiful. There is just nothing like it! :-) ♥

  • I agree bigdsears it gives me goose bumps also! just beautiful!

  • This song gives me moosegumps

  • Oh, the canvas can do miracles...

    Gorgeous video.

  • This is fantastic music!Christopher Cross is the Best Singer of the 80S

  • This is a great song. I remember when I first heard it on the radio. It was a summer song, I was training for a race and on a great run. I heard it on what was then my sony walkman. Finished the run strong. Still have it as a cool down song, And yes I upgraded to an ipod....LOL

  • lo mejor de mi

  • I close my eyes, and see only what i want to see... and each time its different, and its my own private secret place where no one will ever know about .....

  • im sooo in love...i cud die wit dis song lmao

  • this is what I call music

  • Anyone who is familiar with sailing finds a little bit of truth in this song -the canvas CAN do miracles

  • My Mother In Law loved this song and when she died 6 years ago this was played at her funeral. Not a day goes by everytime I hear this song. Its sad but has so much meaning and closeness to my other Mom Mary Neri,

  • Reminds me of summer 1980. High school. Lots of promise for the future and many good friends. Rode my bike to summer school(DGN) for Driver's Ed. Pleasantly recall that GORGEOUS sophomore who rode in the Driver's Ed car. Wow, she was something !

  • que lame es esta cancion.....pero me encanta...:)....lindas playas

  • I just melt when I hear this song. I hope my future husband likes it too...

  • I am a rocker, but this is what I listen to when I want to chill. I don't understand why his career didn't last longer that just 3 LPs

  • @Essra774U I run a Rock/Metal label and I LOVE this song! With you, he should have kicked more ass. Very deep song/message wise and nice musically speaking. Maybe he had the wrong team. Still, I love his music.

  • @michellecoutois

    Hey Michelle,

    Thank you for sharing this song and video with me. I agree, love his music too. Not sure why his career was cut short. I do know that when I want to relax and chill or even ponder on a tough choice or if I am in a conundrum I listen to this song and am totally at peace from life's everyday crap!!

  • I am a sailor because of this piece of music. It started it all for my wife and I back in 1983, and we were able to but a boat over time, and now we live onboard fulltime, om Lake Superior...during the April to November period. Truly, this piece captures the soaring feelings, excitement and beauty of sailing..anywhere! Thanks for the wonderful photography. Whoever did the photo work has learned to use their shutter speed adjustment..nice job!

    Thanks again for this work.

  • soooo love this song....

  • I was born in 90's and I like this song so relaxing like sailing.......(-_-)

  • I swear to God, these tech toys and damn Droid phones and all of it is going to be the very downfall of this America. My kid never takes he eyes off the damn phone OR tv OR computer, almost every waking hour she's NOT in a classroom at school. It's an epidemic and it will only get worse. Technology and the lost childhoods will end this countries finer memories and passtimes. Songs like these make me wonder sometimes what we're doing.

  • Beauuutiful , beautiful video !! thank you for sharing !! : ))

  • beautiful music and video. escultando this song seeing this sea .. deslubra itself in my mind around a profound silence in the heart urged taking the calmest high by love ...

  • Asked about the song “Sailing”, Christopher Cross said that it really is just about sailing in Texas with a friend to get away from teenage trials and tribulations. As he said on the Howard Stern radio show, if the friend had taken him bowling, the song might actually have been entitled “Bowling”.

  • love to listen to this song while i'm off at my work, while we are in the middle of sea.

    - an inspired young sailor

  • i remember being 15 in the summer of 1980 when this came out!! ;) such a beautiful song and so much imagery!

  • actually, most of this tech you speak of, was developed long before you were born. YOUR generation is only using what the baby boomers have designed and built. yes some of your generation have taken it as their own, but much of it, was developed by people born in the 50s and 60s.. steve jobs ring any bells folks

  • i love these people talking about being from the 60s and how privileged they were... you should send us letters instead of using our generation's technology to get your point across no?

  • @wheeyeonwhang so, what do you suggest ? I have a LOT of stories to share about love, music, Filmore, Viet-Nam, the color of one's skin not mattering, DAMN good times

  • @sirwob yes cause vietnam war was amazing...

  • Thank you for that of course the song is beautiful, but the pictures were as well!!!

  • @MsBriittany very much so! ;)

  • Se agapao Zlatina mou...na to 8imasai afto......

  • Beautiful song! Another one is Seagull by Bad Company. Hi from Australia.

  • this song rocks!!!!

  • I just want to thank the 60 people that gave me a thumb up !!! It's very delightful to know that there are some soul sisters and brothers out there !

    We are sailing through hard times and hard tides but must not forget the essential feelings of the Sein: unconditional love, true forgiveness, trying to get rid of our sins, our dark sides and just be nice to Mother Earth. We should simply show respect to everyone and everything! Peace and inner strength to all of you !!

  • this wonderful classic is a masterpeice. This song has helped me overcome the lose of my brothers. til we meet again.dami

  • 120 people have NEVER been sailing :-/ How could you dislike such a beautiful song?

  • Linsten also A Noiva do thock - Visão de Rua, is song of first quality too.

    Very good! I hope that you like.

    Thank for posting!

  • This song brings back a very wonderful and random childhood memory. Visiting my sister's boyfriend's family in Spring Valley, NY. One of his brothers just loved to sing this song. Clearly, he sang it well and this song has stuck with me.

  • Ahh..I loved this song, still do..caught up in a reverie everytime I listen too it, believe me, I have found innocence again and if the dream and the wind carry me off as I always heard it could be, I will be free. Always looking for serenity.

  • This song makes my heart want to forgive everything ugly in life.

  • @eqrommel great comment!

  • @eqrommel  - you can!

  • @eqrommel totally agree!!!!!!!!!!

  • I've loved this song from the first time I heard it. It's great to listen to while sitting beside a fire with someone special too :)

  • Magical...

  • Not going sailing tomm., but, this song will be fitting for a boat ride and fishing tomm.

  • Wonderful song!!!

  • I remember the first time I watched the sun set across the water when this song came on the radio. It was an epiphany. Wow.
