No matter how hard my life was, this song always made me feel better! I could almost feel the wind blowing through my hair! I finally got to go on a gentle boat to sail with a friend after many years of illness. It was everything I thought it would be! I felt free. Thank you for this beautiful song Christopher. It was a lifesaver❤
This song reminds me of my daddy in Heaven. I used to wake up every Saturday morning to this song ....he would play it outloud in the house. How I wish I could hear it again and wake up to see he's back.....❤😢 Miss you daddy kisses from Heaven Forever to my beautiful son and Father.❤
This song is helping me with my depression struggles. I've been in a dark place recently and this song is helping me cope. Christopher's voice and the accompaniment are soothing.
I remember when this song came out... It made a summer real. Its been special ever since.. always will be. Im just glad i was there...............peace.
The first time I heard this song I was 14, at a party at a friend's house, it was the time we used to slow dance with the girls, beautiful and different times. All the songs on this "LP" are one better than the other, and I still listen to them today, Thanks Christopher. ❤
First time i heard this song, i was a teenager in East-Berlin. I felt so much better, when they played this song at the radio station (in East-Berlin, we could receive all the radio channels from West-Berlin). When i first heard it: wow! Greetings from Berlin, Kathrin xx
This is 1 of those songs that make u wanna close ur eyes & imagine that u’re n a more beautiful & peaceful place n the world where there is no existing chaos r violence of any kind, but only uninterrupted peace & tranquility.🧘🏽🧘🏽🧘🏽
No matter how happy im currently, this song always makes me cry....its like, it finds that place in my heart that noone knows about, where i locked away all the..unhappy things...
What a masterpiece. The production, Christopher's vocals, this soothing melody totally feels like a summer breeze watching a beautiful sunset while sailing 😄Everything about this classic evokes that feeling, it's brilliant 💖
This is the GO-TO song to get right with yourself and your soul to get into alignment with the love frequency and Creator. What a gift this song always was!💖
This song takes me to Rhode Island, all along Florida, California, Hawaii and all over the Pacific. I first learned how to sail and scuba dive when I was stationed at Naval Hospital Newport, RI. Sunsets and sunrises all over the world… thank you Mr. Cross. I hope you have an idea what this song does for me and so many others…I’m pretty sure you do…
When I start thinking, and getting confused, about what life is truly about, this song always brings me back to reality and the beauty and truth of our existence.... Have a good day Everyone....
This song has traveled with me throughout my life like a sweet friend. The good times and the bad. The best was on a Christmas cruise I took the year my father passed. I sat and watched the sunset listening to this song. The wind blowing through my hair and cried tears of joy cause I knew he was there smiling down on me.
Back in the 80's when this song was released, my best friend and I got into a canoe at town lakes in Austin, TX and drifted into serenity with a six pack, a clear blue sky and this song on our boom box.....our UT classes long forgotten.
This is probably the hands down my most favorite songs of all time. My dear friend becky Bliss and my dear brother James Blair introduced me to this song. It conjures up bitter sweet moments. Becky Ann and James Bkair made some wonderful memories. I chose this song at my dear departed brother's funeral in 1984. I laugh through my sorrowful tears sometimes when I hear this song. They both died tragically but I know I heard the bell ring three times each so they earned their wings are are saiking in heaven with the blessed hoky trinity. Rest in Peace James Blair and future sister in law and dear friend. Fate didn't allow them to marry but I imagine when they appeared at saint Peter's gate he handed them their marriage certificate and sailed them right up to heaven. Beautiful song❤
One of the most stunning memorable moments of my life: June 1980 living in South Padre Island/ Port Isabel, Tx. Gorgeous day. I lived across the street from the beach I could see it through my picture window which faced the ocean. It was already a stunning crystal clear day with the sunlight dancing and glistening all over the water. It was the day of The World Hobey Cat Races. There was a large number of Hobey Cats racing back and forth on the water with their gorgeous colorful sails. I was cleaning house with my twins playing on the floor and I was listening to the radio. This song came on the radio as I was looking out the window at the sailboats. It was a breathtaking sensory overload.... a gift.
Hello fellow Texan I geew up sailing in Offetts Bayou in Galveston a sunfish. I left at 16 and returned to Houston in 1981 the year after this song came out...I was 32 met the love of my life we bought a sailboat together 32fter had sailed Hobies. We sailed away in early retirement in 1997 to the Caribbean on our 46ft motorsailor...we dreamed of it and planned for it since the night we met. We sailed it for 7years ...glorious life. Then we sold it and built a tropical house abroad. He passed away 2 years ago at 80. But all that sailing. all those years of joy, all those years of deeams come true...I have been lucky. My early life had not beem so easy lost all my family by the time I was 16 which is when I left Texas the first time. I hope your life has been beautiful too...I can SEE what you described sailing Corpus Chrosti Bay....thanks for that lovely sight in my mind.
@latinaalma1947 Beautiful life and memories. I'm sorry for your losses but yes, you describe a dream of a life. I think my brother's actual dream but he did not get to live it as you have. All blessings to you! Thank you for sharing your beautiful experiences!
This song kept coming to me tonight. Wasnt satisfied til I listened to it. Didn't realize exactly how trying this week had been until I listened to it and was in such a peaceful state. So beautiful and soothing
Life will always be LIFE. But knowing we can have one moment of joy from it, is something that feels eternal in the soul. And this amazing song is a wonderful example.
I always miss you #ChristopherCross when I hear this song. So many memories of my life. Thank you for always being an inspiration to me and the rest of the world. Your music will live on infinity and beyond. Sending you lots of love, light, strength and blessings. Gracias Thank you Thank you for making life a little easier, a little smoother and a lot happier with your 🎶 Madelyn C.
I 😊friggin love this song, I introduced this song to my BF, he likes it too now. One day I turned it up on car speaker and started singing to it. He asked me if I wanted to feel like I was sailing, naturally excited I said yes!! He told me to stick my head out the window and sprayed me with windshield wash lol❤ahhh love
I don't listen to this song...........I bathe in it..........just so beautiful, an incredible musician, singer and song writer who I could listen to forever...........
I too desire to have this song played on the radio when I pass away. And have my ashes sprinkled in Washington DC in the springtime when the Japanese Cherry Blossoms are in Full Bloom. But as my mother would say "DREAM ON !!!!"
First time I heard your voice and the melodies...from the shores of Traverse City Michigan in 1980...man this song so captured the time and my lonely soul. Still wishing you the best my friend, though I only know you through your music it is a tribute to what you were saying to us all. Thank you!
I loved this song so much when I was a little child…still feels like my favorite sweater.
indeed reminds me of my childhood times were so peaceful compared to the world today
This song is what the color blue sounds like 💙
Poetic, the above.
For 4 minutes you could be somewhere else with this song. One of the most beautiful song’s ever written.

Your comment really moved me ... I'm sûre your dad is proud of you and will always live in your heart and mind....as well as mine , gone too soon❤❤❤
This song is somewhere around melancholy. I don't have the words to express it,
This song always takes me back to being a teenager living in Santa Cruz. What a timeless and beautiful piece of art.
This song is helping me with my depression struggles. I've been in a dark place recently and this song is helping me cope. Christopher's voice and the accompaniment are soothing.
Sorry you've been down. Glad this song has been helping. Hope you're doing better now.🙏
❤i pray For you
Thinking about you and what you said, let us know if you're okay, hon
Stay strong
How's everything going now bro? You cool?

What a masterpiece. The production, Christopher's vocals, this soothing melody totally feels like a summer breeze watching a beautiful sunset while sailing 😄Everything about this classic evokes that feeling, it's brilliant 💖
As beautiful as this song is, it brings tears to my eyes. For me it's a "play this at my funeral" song. Even the comments are making me weep.
This is the GO-TO song to get right with yourself and your soul to get into alignment with the love frequency and Creator. What a gift this song always was!💖
