Christopher is such an amazing Artist, both in his own released music as well as what he has done for other musicians. Also, did you pick up on the great Michael McDonald on the background? Both truly amazing. Please make sure to check out more of Christophers music! Also, that man can rip a guitar.
LOVE this song ( and Christopher Cross ) and Sailing,two very soothing and calming songs which I enjoy.These 2 songs are my go to tunes when I'm stressed,down and need a good endorphin rush.
Love it. Also love that you ride in your car listening to Sailing. I swear that the song Sailing does something to the brain. You just feel better listening to it. Like anything is possible.
That was awesome! Love your reaction! You could add this song to your Yacht Rock playlist! Arthur's Theme is another great Christopher Cross song you should react to
Hey, Ashley…first time checking out your reaction…and I was diggin’ it! I agree, Christopher Cross is multi talented, as were many from his era…great stuff!
Love your reaction and I was so happy you listened to another Christopher Cross song. I had such a tough day at work and I saw this earlier. I just didn’t get a chance to listen. Honestly, you made my night so much better and appreciate you greatly! Always have been one of my favorite songs with Michael McDonald on the back up vocals. Thank you miss Ashley
Just finished watching your Exile video... awesome!! Christopher Cross too??? These are all the songs my father played in his pickup. Great memories! Count ne as your newest subscriber. Love 60s, 70s and 80s Rock! 👍🏾
Ashley, YOU ARE A RABBIT HOLE!! I found you one night when I couldn’t sleep and listened to your reactions for 5 straight hours!! Keep up the great work. Your reactions are as good as the music!
Michael McDonald was responsible for helping getting Christopher Cross' career started. I think 'Arthur's Theme' is his signature song. The song was the soundtrack from the movie Arthur (1981) The song won Best Original Song at the 1982 Grammys. 'Ride Like The Wind' was on the B side of the record while 'Arthur's Theme' was on Side A.
I thought this song was so boring 80s. It definitely has grown on me. Its now the first song on my new playlist I made: Yacht Rock. Plus its Michael Omartian, my favorite arranger!
When they wrote these tunes....they let them "marinated" for awhile before releasing....they din't "churn" out songs back then..well maybe some artists.
As well as his hits from this album, he also sang the theme from the movie Arthur starring Dudley Moore and Liza Mannelli(the daughter of Judy Garland from the Wizard of Oz). "The best that you can do", great movie. Dudley Moore also starred in the movie "10", with Bo Derek!
Anything my boy Michael McDonald is on is likely to be some heat. The song crossed my ears way back when, but it wasnt until i heard it playing in the grocery story a few years back, that i really clung to it. Thank you Shazam lol this is my 💩
Great reaction. Subbed. If you want to witness amazing versatility, go from The Beatles from first album, Meet The Beatles through the Abbey Road album.
That's Michael McDonald singing backup (as he did for everyone back then). Love the bongos.
I was just going to ask that question. MM has such a distinctive voice.
Oh that's Michael McDonald 1 💯 on backgrounds!! ❤
I was waiting for her reaction when she realized it
Yes, Michael McDonald back up vocals. That' also Christopher Cross playing the guitar solo. Killer!
Christopher and the LEGENDARY Iconic Mr Michael McDonald ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You can’t go wrong with Christopher Cross! He is an amazingly talented artist! Great reaction Ashley!❤😎
Ive never understood how or why his popularity ended 🤔 he was so damn good!
That guitar solo by Mr. Cross. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great traveling song. Flying cross country on HIghway 80...NYC to Denver in 25 hours.
Also a great cruising song driving!
25 hrs you kicked ass.
You are in the presence of greatness!Your smile is beautiful, good music makes you smile!
🎵... such a long way to go...🎶 Michael McDonald
That is Christopher jamming on the guitar at the end of the song
What a great classic song

Arthur’s Theme should be next reaction.

I like to think of this song in spiritual terms.....the border Mexico being heaven
Amazing song

Hello Ashley. I'm such a fan of your old school reactions. I was wondering if you've ever done a reaction to "Oh Honey" by Delegation?
Michael McDonald was responsible for helping getting Christopher Cross' career started. I think 'Arthur's Theme' is his signature song. The song was the soundtrack from the movie Arthur (1981) The song won Best Original Song at the 1982 Grammys. 'Ride Like The Wind' was on the B side of the record while 'Arthur's Theme' was on Side A.
The whole album was Great!😊

I thought this song was so boring 80s. It definitely has grown on me. Its now the first song on my new playlist I made: Yacht Rock. Plus its Michael Omartian, my favorite arranger!

First comment from Thailand.
Shoutout to running from the Feds with a big bag of something
Now you might want to listen to Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do) by Christopher Cross. It's possible that you might even recognize it.
When they wrote these tunes....they let them "marinated" for awhile before releasing....they din't "churn" out songs back then..well maybe some artists.
1970 Curtis Mayfield/Diamond in the Back
As well as his hits from this album, he also sang the theme from the movie Arthur starring Dudley Moore and Liza Mannelli(the daughter of Judy Garland from the Wizard of Oz). "The best that you can do", great movie. Dudley Moore also starred in the movie "10", with Bo Derek!
Shit is the jam w Mike McDonald in the background This song makes me run red lights
1972 Steely Dan/Reelin in the Years
Anything my boy Michael McDonald is on is likely to be some heat. The song crossed my ears way back when, but it wasnt until i heard it playing in the grocery story a few years back, that i really clung to it. Thank you Shazam lol this is my 💩
1977 Rose Royce/Wishing in a Star
1970 Chicago/Color My World
CAN YOU HEAR MICHAEL MCDONALD IN BACKROUND VOCALS ???
Gary Wright " I really want to know you "
Next Arthur's theme
you'd probably like Steely Dan
Road trip music.
Great artist. Great Songs. But where is he now? What happened to him?
Great reaction. Subbed. If you want to witness amazing versatility, go from The Beatles from first album, Meet The Beatles through the Abbey Road album.
Try another ..Rolling Stones song....(BEAST OF BURDEN )
