This song is amazing and the video is much appreciated. Great job all aound. I only wish that I had taken the time to capture such memories. Thanks!!!
You folks that are so busy taking time to go around and criticize what folks upload amaze me....Why don't you upload it just the way you like it..each of our journeys here is a personal one..yes, it is a great song..and, my day at the beach was, too..Thank you very much.
@sherrylynn70 Wow....you really should calm down. You are worried about comments about a video you uploaded two years ago? Really? I didn't say anything about the vid. I was talking about the sound, because the sound was taking away from the song, and that is my opinion. I am not the only one who has made that point. It's not that big a deal. Don't lose sleep over it. wow...
@robertnelson8312 It's from Michael Franks' 1990 album Blue Pacific. Fantastic CD. Pick it up or download it. Michael Franks is a fantastic artist. You won't be disappointed...
@sherrylynn70 I just want to say that I thoroughly enjoy this video... It's a perfect compliment to the song. I'm going to San Diego in about a month, and this gets me very excited! Thanks for posting.
Wow its nice to know that there are ppl around the world who still R optimistic abt the world we live in,i know this is far from what the song is abt but its true"if music be the food of life".............???
@TheWired101 Yes, somehow. I'm right there with you. Something about this song makes me think that someday, everything will be okay. In my opinion, it is one of the greatest songs of all time :)
@wajobu Hey, your reply about "Woman in the Wave" is about a year old, but I'm just now reading it. Would you mind giving me a little more info about your comment re. "Noa Noa," a musical about Goughan (neither of us spelled it right -- lol)??? :)
@mylittlebugaboo During Michael's career, he has within his albums, included 1 or 2 songs about artist Paul Gauguin based on his memoir (Gauguin's) "Noa Noa" , which documents his expatriot time in Tahiti. It's an interesting little book, available at places like Amazon. From this, Franks wrote songs in the hopes of one day producing a Broadway or off-Broadway musical. Often the songs in the track lists of his albums are referenced as "from Noa Noa".
@mylittlebugaboo From Michael's website: "Noa Noa was briefly work-shopped off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons in 1995, but its 28 songs have yet to be given a proper showcase. Michael hopes to remedy this by recording a cast album, then taking a cast on the road to perform it like summer stock. Stay tuned for further developments."
I was never into Michael Franks but the BLUE PACIFIC cd was probably the greatest vocal CD I have ever heard in my life! I still have the original cd I bought 20 years ago, scratches and all! LOL
Thank you very much for posting this video and song. I truly love this song and haven't been able to find it anywhere. Thanks to people like you and YouTube, we can find songs of memories past.
OK, Sherry...you are gaining some seriosu skills when it comes to the Youtube thing. I have loved this song for years; thanks for bringing back memories of my early twenties!!! Straight to favorites!!
So good to see you, Trent...obviously, I am running behind...I sure appreciate your visit here..glad I picked one you love..you have blessed me so many times...certainly owed you one...think of you often..
What a cute video, and the organic background sound was perfect. Great blend for Michael's song. Gracias! :) Raf

This is a great song. Yes, wish they had uploaded it without the background beach noise. So not necessary, but the song is great.
