Christopher Cross ~ Ride Like The Wind 1979 Disco Purrfection Version
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 сер 2014
- This guy came on like a hurricane in the spring of 1980. Christopher Geppert joined his first band, Flash in 1971. They opened for bands like Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin garnering lots of attention but no record action. Chris quit the band in 1973 for a solo career and in 1978 secured a contract with Warner Brothers. Seldom does an unknown artist get the full out all star treatment he got from his label who enlisted Michael McDonald, Don Henley, JD Souther and Nicolette Larson to participate in the project.
However when the album was finished, WB held back the single release until they felt that there was nothing new being released, which ended up being January of 1980. The first single, "Ride Like The Wind" went to #2 for four weeks unable to disconnect Blondie's "Call Me" from the top spot, even with Michael McDonald on background vocals.
The second single, "Sailing" did just that, moving right up to the #1 spot and powering the eponymously titled LP to 5X platinum status and earned him a sweep of the 1981 Grammy Awards taking Best Album, Record, Song of The Year (Sailing) and Best New Artist. It was the first time in record history that an artist took the top four awards ever.

@619 OG thanks 😁
@@alfredbrown7608 Good to see you on here again brother Alfred!
@@mikey_suzefour you to great comment thanks
Yes, when i was child i loved this song and " a horse with no name" of America.
After losing my job as a steelworker outside Pittsburgh, I moved to Houston, and with one of my best friends, Eugene, we got a job together, and this song came on while we cruised the 610 loop and 'Ride Like The Wind,' became our anthem! Up, Up and away we began, the world was our Pearl we believed, and we never forgot the moment when we first heard this song!!! Just a moment in time!!!
Bet they were good times brother good memories
so....what happened next? What happened to Eugene?
😂Don't go vote democrat now!
Wishing both of you all the best
How are you today user ef7 as we are all listening today and hoping you aer well!!
I'm turning 50 and these songs make me feel like a kid again
Happy birthday
I wish we could ride like the wind to escape the crazy times we live in. . .
You can. You have to join the Fight Club.
ABSOLUTELY
❤Have a sip , a puff , and ride the clauds..!!(and forget the American dream :"pizza NetFlix n a hot blond, LOL)❤

Few people truly get this song and actually take the journey across this land while figuring out who they truly are in this life and their reason anf purpose is here on this Earth ✌️🥳💞💞
I was on a Greyhound bus traveling from the East coast to San Diego. This song came on my radio, I unplugged the earphones and cranked the volumn up. The passengers quieted down and became lost in their own thoughts. When the song was over, everyone applauded. A GOLDEN MEMORY.
How is it in San Diego?
Tamara Hathaway PHILIPPIANS 4:3 Nice👍🏻
I drove from Maryland to Oregon in 3 days almost 3,000 miles this song was inspiration!!💯
I'm very intrigued by your UA-cam name. I read the verse, and I'm interested to understand your take on it. I'm sure it is a good story.
Say what you want about Americans but no one breaks into spontaneous applause like they do and if anyone on here saw a movie like Die Hard in a US theater you'll know what I mean!
1979 I was 9 years old and have loved this song eternally ❤❤❤
I was 9 in 79 welcome to the over the hill club.
Oh the connection between Christopher Cross and Michael McDonald. Pure chemistry
Also 9 in 79. I'm fucking vintage
@@karaokeapocalypse2184 we're classic
Same age. December 1969
Here we are, the first week of February 2023, still jamming out with Christopher Cross! Sharing with our kids! Timeless! Love your music Christopher! ❤ 🎶
with ya these songs will never die
❤️ Every time we're on Lake Ray Hubbard we play "Sailing" 😀. I had this album in H.S. & just about played the grooves off of it. Great music never gets old & video didn't kill this radio star for me ❣️
Yes!
Yes!! Classic
Yaaaaaaasss 🙌🎤😎
Where has the time gone? Friends gone like the wind.
Damn this man can sing and another legendary singer is backing him up. Now that is sheer class !
YESSS!! Christopher Cross in the lead with Michael McDonald giving those muscular harmonies made some of the BEST music around!
Imagine having a legend like Michael McDonald singing BACKUP on your record!!!
I am sad for the way the industry has treated him. Will always love him and his music.
Yep, gotta love that vocal backup by Michael McDonald! Still have this on vinyl...
plonker
I dont care what anyone says ...his music was intoxicating and still is today !!! 💜💜💜
Agreed
Dig it!
Damn right! And I’m from the same home city he’s from-San Antonio, Texas.
Good Music
@Tina Osborn I agree. Today’s music is garbage. Just trash!
Graduated high school in 1975 married in 1979 still married to same woman today a true wife who showed up every day! The love of my life. This song is one of. My all time favorites it speaks to my soul and drives me to just show up every day! Just keep going , just keep moving, just keep doing just keep showing up ! What else is there! Stay the course!
And Michael McDonald backing up yet another awesome tune.
His voice is unmistakable and legendary in all of the early 80s hits!!
there's a rumor out there that he did the song I'll Wait by Van Halen but they kept it quiet until recently.
@@pashon4percushon I heard that too. Maybe that's the reason that is one of the few Van Halen songs I like....
Michael McDonald of course was one of the main voices for the Doobie Brothers.
@@qkcmnt1242 and Steely Dan before that..
oh man! I heard that voice and thought that must be him. Then my eyes fell upon your comment!
im 64 so glad im from the 70 and 80 the best music of my life
1970S FOR SURE. LOVED VAN MORRISON
I'm 64 and still listen to this great music everyday. Good luck.
Yes. I as well. Agree 100%🎉
Me, too. I'm 72 now.
Think you meant Jim Morrison of The Doors@@jackiemjacksonjackson9611
I'm 62 n still listen to it 😊
Thnks who ever liked it
Lol
I'm 66 and this song brings back memories of good times.
My late friend Guido ( rest in peace) played this song after telling Him I ended My first relationship.
He put on a smile , and told Me this is for You!
He had an amazing sound-system.
We used to pick music fm His collection,and try to surprise eachoter.
Not so much thinking about My ex.
More missing My childhood friend when listening to this song.
All a healthy,peacefull 2024
I'am black and I can't get enough of this song❤
You have great taste!
true brother... but the color of our skin cannot change us in front of the taste of beauty....
You have great taste my friend.
As a old white guy I can't get enough of it either
No one can knock this era of music....it really was the best ever ❤️
1👍👍
Very fortunate to have lived through it 🤠
Agree 👍🏾
@@RT-mu3bh Not sure about the best ever, but it was definitely up there. A great era of music DEFINITELY!
Real music died in 1999.
The seventies and eighties had some of the best songs ever. Listening to these songs always brings me back to a happier time and place. I will never stop listening to these songs. Told my wife here I can see us now when we turn 80, cruising down the road, top down and the music cranked. Nothing like it in the world.
it was all totally genuine ... good times and good memories to draw upon
Drifting from lane to lane like we owned the world
Having grown up as a teenager in the 80s I have seen the steady decline in mainline music, so good to be able to tune into channels like these and just get lost in memories
I pray you get your chance!
I always say that when I die send me back to the 80's. Best time of my life. Man I miss the 80's.
Where have the great songs like this one have gone, 2 amazing talents like Chris Cross and Michael McDonald , those were the years, now there is not creative music, give me back the 70, 80, 90 please,
Damn, I was a baby when this song came out now I just turned 50 and I can remember my parents blasting us in the 76 Cadillac two door
Your Parents had great taste in music...
I wish i could turn back the hands of time the 70s and 80s were the good ole days.
Oh. Me too. 57 now. 19-22 forever
I wish to my friend 😢
@ted ritola it's an expression.
Sandra Kimberlin. Oh so true. I would head back without hesitation.
back when we didnt know how bad our government was screwing us.
I was born in 1979. As a black woman, I still love soft rock from the 80s!
So do I.!!!
However i dont know why he put this song in the disco category.????
Same here music is universal!
Saxon did a good cover of this song.
@@louisgonzalez8846 Listen to the beat of the drums.
@@jsz2619 i was born as a bald white man,now im a black woman from 1970s...
I wish today’s music was as good like this, I miss the 70s and the 80s .
Music was excellent then .
Everyone I heard the greatest thing today, my 15 year old son said he preferred my music over his generations. I'm so happy. 😄
You have an INTELLIGENT son. Good job Mom!
YES ! SMART KID
Christopher Cross passed out hit after hit. The vocals in this man's voice are pure legendary, not to mention the lyrics.
Unbelievable singer, so lucky to have been around when all these songs came on the radio....
Christopher Cross is a member of a rare group of Grammy Winners who won all the 5 major Grammy categories in a single year. This exclusive group includes Stevie Wonder and Nora Jones. His debut album which featured SAILING and RIDE LIKE THE WIND established Christopher Cross as a legendary music icon.
Exactly
Not many artist make me feel chills
Magic
Well said only caus imonbis but brilliant band
i believe he beat out everyone and took home like 4 or 5 awards in 1985 or something like that. this guy's voice is something else.
My husband loved this song! He's no longer hear! RIP , my love.
Sorry about your loss sweety
@@alishaturner4362 ...thanks!
God bless him. I think he is riding now like my son who left 8 years ago.
We're with you, and some of ours are gone but not forgotten.
He's probably riding like the wind!😊👍
You can't go wrong with Michael McDonald singing backup!!!!
My Dream to see Michael McDonald singing"Caribbean Queen"never happened...
Love his voice
This is what we call music 🎶, never gets stale.
Speaking of Micheal McDonald. this guy is in so many backing tracks its unreal. Unmistakable voice..... Like an angel
Hey there! Need more tasty Michael McDonald background vocals? Many Steely Dan tracks/ James Ingram, "ya mo be there", Kenny Loggins, "This is it". Enjoy
@@Jockeylotforfun I'll Be Over You by Toto
@@ItsAmazingHowIAm Thanks! I didn't know about this one 😃
@@ItsAmazingHowIAm That one was subtle! List more when you get a chance, thanks
Please list some tracks when you get a chance....thanks
Christopher Cross is an 80s pop icon. This, and Sailing are his masterpieces.
Africa was Toto.
@@gregwarner9624 think that Toto goes back to the 1970s, Greg, but they certainly had their biggest success in the 80s.
Toto did africa

Brilliant classic 👍🕺💃👍🎶🎶🎈🎈😊
Cool 😎!!!
The magic of this song playing full volume while driving cross country through the cool stillness of the desert in the wee hours feeling unbound and confident that each day would bring more joy than the day before. Ahh youth......
I'm sitting on my couch but the volume is cranked up!!
I concur
I agree, crossing the Mississippi, then the continental divide, looking at the expanse of the west smelling that cool night air, pumped and ready for anything...
Feeling you. Miss the 80s
Oh Yes!!!
Excellent time in my life""""" it was electric 😤x
Always enjoyed hearing Mike McDonald's harmonies on this song.
What a duo Christopher Cross and Michael McDonald that's ACE
That's what I'm talking bout! It's a gem!!!

It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go (such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
I was born the son of a lawless man
Always spoke my mind with a gun in my hand
Lived nine lives
Gunned down ten
Gonna ride like the wind
And I've got such a long way to go (such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
Gonna ride like the wind
Accused and tried and told to hang
I was nowhere in sight when the church bells rang
Never was the kind to do as I was told
Gonna ride like the wind before I get old
It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go (such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
And I've got a long way to go (such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Thank you for posting the lyrics 🥰
Never ceases to amaze me how much more incredible a song becomes once you have seen the lyrics and truly understand it xx
Thanks for sharing the lyrics, I'm latin, I'm from México City, bit I love this song. Best regards from México
Thank you!
@@simoneduardocastro saludos amigo yo soy de Actopan Hidalgo y me encanta el Rock AND roll
This song is the absolute bomb🙂
Christopher Cross sure made the bomb when he made this.
And he incorporated Michael McDonald. Classic ☺️
This song kick ass!!!!!
The harmonies of Michael McDonald on the track gives it that extra umph to make it stand out beautifully
Artist aren’t made like this anymore! A great song and songwriter. It’s an art to write, sing and on top of all that inspire others for generations to come. Thanks CC!
not to mention CC's guitar solo at the end.
there is not enough love in this world just want to say "i love you all".
Love to you too 💖💖💖
Lovin you too baaaaabbbyy!!😉
Awwwe thats so nice ❤
I swear
I love you
Still a masterpiece after all this time, pure talent of everyone's involved in this album
This song is magi for the person who wants more out of life despite the odds. It feels and says it all. A classic in the true sense of the word. When I was poor and living in the ghetto, this was my song to change my environment and go for all the marbles. ..and I did!. It took a long time, but I wanted to " Ride Like the Wind".
and carry a gun on this hands..Fearless man....
Songs from the past are still much way better from most of the songs of these days.
More sophisticated. Less Gimmicky
Because today we are nihilistic and overly obsessed with sex and our identities.
@@ExaminerCross I would *wildly* challenge the notion that people weren't obsessed with sex and their own identities in 1979...
@@LayneBenofsky yeah but it's even more intense now. Way more intense. Technology has spread the self obsession to a much wider group of people. Much wider.
You - tube
The internet, and smartphones.
The speed and breadth of our obsession grows exponentially now.
You got that right
Stunning song, soulful vocals just stirs the emotions great. Still stands up even now, have heard this dropped in house sets and it still gets the reaction it deserves. fantastic beautiful piece of music.
Well put man, we'll put
This was probably one of the greatest songs Christopher Cross ever recorded in my opinion people still come back to this song for the nostalgia.
Not just nostalgia, people who weren't even born when this song came out love it, it's just great music.
I just got my drivers license in high school when this came out and when I was able to drive alone, I would roll down the windows and when this song came on- it was magical! XO
Yes for me it reminds me of the first time of riding a motorcycle, true freedom!
@@mycoolchannel-uj7pl That had to be amazing! True freedom for sure!
This is what FREEDOM sounds like ..... 🦅
Agreed
Saxon overdose
I would love to ice skate to this song, even though I am not that great at it. With the wind in my hair. Love hearing these songs from my past.
Nobody can hold us down. This COVID Virus or all the money in the world. We Ride Like the Wind.
I second that brother
Micheal McDonald on the backups is killer!!!
Doesn't he add just the right amount "subconscience haunt" ?? 😉😁
I thought that was him yes great song still
plonker
McDonald’s little cameo always makes me laugh because that voice takes over everything lol It’s one of the most distinctive and immediately recognizable sounds in pop music. That voice is actually one of my earliest musical memories.
I believe the phrase you all are looking for is "He Freaking Rocks" .. Awesome song !!! Kills and rips my nostalgic heart tho 😣 ..
I am 64 oldtimer 😮 stil Alive and kicking 💪
Same here !😊
God bless Christopher Cross, a masterpiece.
Still listening and its 2020. That whole album was the great. Don Henley, Michael McDonald and Steven Lee Lukather along with other band members of Toto were on this album.
Wellll uhhhh. Eric Johnson?
Listen to those bongos

Michael McDonald is so distinctive on background vocals. Simply delicious.
Need more Michael McDonald vocals? James Ingram, "ya mo be there" /Michael Jackson "somebody's watching me" McDonald voice! 🎵🎵💕💕
I agree. Those are great background vocals by Mr. McDonald.
Need even MORE delicious Michael McDonald vocals? Listen to some Steely Dan albums, especially The Royal Scam, Katy Lied, and (Steely Dan's most amazing album EVER) Aja.

Been loving it since '86... Don't care who's around, I'm jamming it, and singing along for the ride...
This is actually from the late 70s
If you haven't been on the back roads in your city, speeding to this song, you are surely missing out!!

Long live to all those songs 🎉👍🏼☺️

Yes , indeed!👍🏼
It was late afternoon and I was driving through the countryside in Greece (Zante) to a restaurant and the sun was beautiful and everything had a golden glow. This song came on the radio and it still makes me smile all these years later
You still feel good, after all these years, about that day, because You were exactly where You were supposed to be!! That day/ moment was made especially for You & no one else!! Something tells me that you have had other great memories & moments happen in your life? True or not?!!😎😊😎

Love love love. Man I miss the 60's 70's and 80s soon much!
And that is Michael McDonald doing back up ! 😘😚😘
Sailing is a very good one !!
What an era to grow up in. They don’t make music like this these days and having other artists like Michael McDonald do back up singing is wonderful. Brings me right back to where i was enjoying life in the 70’s.
DJDiscoCat, I am a medical professional who began listening to classic disco on your channel a while back. This song particular song was a hot repeater on Sirius XM's Yacht Rock channel then, and I used to listen to it while doing long drives down the Florida East coast to Key West as a locum. I would frequently be cruising down US1 in my Mercedes with the top down and my dog in the passenger seat while reminiscing about better times. So many good memories---especially of family and close friends who have long since passed away. Wish I could go back in time to see and hug them again.
Who knows where the time goes or when our loved ones won't be with us anymore? Ride with the Wind is a perennial sentimental piece for me. Love it.
This wonderful track , Reminds us that the winds of change, Even in this crisis (Will Guide Us Through) Hang in there my friends - Peace ! ! ! 🌎 👋 👤 .
And right back at you friend
FRIGGIN AWESOME TUBNE. THIS GUY WAS NEVER EXPECXTED TO BE A STAR BECAUSE OFF HIS LOOKS...BVUT THIS SONG ROCKED IN 79
I think his looks are TREMENDOUS!!! i just dont think Christopher ever really wanted to be famous; I think he made great music, which makes it impossible to avoid fame. that's why he just disappeared one fine day. which is gonna be a curse when you're putting out SUCH damn good music, and rollin' w/ the likes of Michael McDonald.
Top song ,stirs up the internal spirit of being free
Christopher Cross hit the bull's eye with this song and made his claim to fame! Great lyrics!
I was in Pensacola, FL attending Naval Aircrew school in 1983 when they showed us a jet fighter video set to this song to pump us up before the altitude chamber ride. I found a new appreciation for this tune.
Flash Gordon..... What Class were you assigned to? ✈️🌍
@@judgemarshall6127 No clue as to the class number, just remember the chamber ride and the panic in a drum. Got an ear block in the chamber and got held back a week. I went to HC-16 at NAS Pensacola after aircrew class as a crewchief on UH-1N Heuys. Then "A" school for Aviation Electronics tech in Millington, TN followed by three tours with VXE-6 to McMurdo, Antarctica. VXE-6 was at Pacific Missile Test Center NAS Point Mugu.

Perfect! Those Navy officers are pretty smart!

Hey Sammie wherever you are save me a place
Shotgun !!! I'll bring the refreshments. 80s good times, good music, good friends & I WANT MY MTV... !!!!!
up and dancing oh yeah

"Never was the kind to do as I was told."
Love that line.
HOLY FUCK!!! There exists an extended mix. Mad props for the uplaod.
Yesssssss, my daughter (now 25), just sent Sailing to me, I sent Ride Like the Wind back, my traveling music!
born in 1960 and never for one second thought that was a disco song
Yes, I was surprised by the classification as well!
Very light rock. Yacht rock in my opinion. Saxon did a heavier version that was awesome.
I drove from Newport Beach California to Clearwater Florida in 3 days in 280z I loved this song
Nice ride , I hope you had great songs played in that ride !!😊
I wish I could ride like the wind and wind up back in the 80s again.. Has anyone out there figured out a way to return to the past. I'd give anything to be youthful again.
I wish 💙
My very sentiments exactly. Such happy summery memories of the 80s. And l worked in a record shop. Happy days 🤗
I hear ya
I have, but your past is not as glamorous as you think that it is in life.
Nope Il Go back to the 70s ANY DAY
I want heaven to be like all the good of the 70s. I want to spend eternity there!
That's a wonderful sentiment.
I completely agree with U. ☺
Richard Paul you have got to be a long lost brother, bless you! I agree 👍👍🤚
True
It will be even better my friend ❤
AMEN TO THAT BROTHER 🙏
I SO AGREE WITH YOU.
As far as freedom goes, you have to ride it like the wind. Don't ever look back!!!
