    I heard a quote the other day, I can’t remember where: “We use art to decorate space, we use music to decorate time.” This song, and other Christopher Cross songs, take me back so many years; to another time in my life. So pleasant; so nostalgic.

    • @Vasu979
      @Vasu979 3 роки тому +10

      Absolutely mate! Couldn't agree more.
      I've always felt the same about this song. It instantly evokes a feeling of nostagia and takes me back to a time when I experienced love for the first time.
      That excitement, the innocence, the full of life attitude without a thing to worry about. Everytime I hear this song, it's like I'm living all of that again.
      Time flies! Life goes on but memories remain.
      Though I'm still young but this song is pure nostagia especially when you're hearing it while sipping on coffee watching the sunset from your balcony. Cheers mate!! And also a great cover by HSCC!

    Wow, this is a monumental turning point for HSCC! Over the last 3 years, HSCC has built a fabulous international ‘cover-band’ reputation with its weekly online releases of classic songs performed live. That reputation has seen HSCC deservedly become one of the most loved and respected cover-bands on the Internet and all their success to date has been underpinned by TWO solid pillars. The first of those two pillars is the amazing quality of musicianship delivered by the array of talented vocalists and instrumentalists who have participated in HSCC’s expansive video catalogue of performances. The second of those two pillars is the exceptionally high standard of HSCC’s post-performance production (sound-mixing) that only a few of the other successful online cover-bands have been able to match. As a lead guitarist with over 50 years of experience under my belt, and a fellow Australian, I have admired HSCC ever since I first became aware of its online presence when the COVID lockdowns started back in March 2020. Almost 3-months ago, HSCC’s production pillar suffered a bit of shakiness when Darren Mullan left the band and Dave Ross took over the sound-mixing role that had previously been performed by Darren to perfection. To many of HSCC’s fans, especially those with a trained ear, the band suddenly did not sound quite as good as it used to sound. The mixes were still good, but they fell slightly short of being the great mixes we had become accustomed to. This was disappointing and many fans have since been posting critical comments. Some of the criticisms have been constructive but some of them have been destructive to the point that last week’s release of “Dancing Queen” was undeservedly subjected to a barrage of negative comments that had a nasty smell of an online conspiracy against HSCC. Fortunately for us genuine fans, the HSCC team did not buckle under that very suspicious ‘way-over-the-top’ attack because this week they have bounced back and treated us to a superb rendition of “Sailing” which has BOTH pillars intact and as solid as ever. Not only does “Sailing” feature HSCC’s highly-professional musicianship, but it also features a return to the gold-standard sound quality of the old HSCC. So, I would like to thank everyone at HSCC (and especially Dave Ross) for their dedication, persistence, and resilience in the face of challenges imposed by ever-changing circumstances. Departures, even if sad, happen in every band so I’m saying it’s now time for everyone to cease lamenting over Darren’s departure and to move forward because it looks like HSCC is back to ticking all boxes for its fans. Thank you HSCC, you are much appreciated.

      Really? I’m listening with a pair of quality Bose headphones, and I can’t hear the percussionist. Go to time stamp 2:38 and come back and tell me if you can hear anything? Muffled is the word.

    • @johnmoss7487
      @johnmoss7487 3 роки тому +12

      @@philgower292 Hi Phil, coincidentally I too use quality Bose headphones (mine are noise cancelling Quietcomfort 35 II). Being both a muso and a fan of HSCC, I listen carefully to every HSCC song several times over. In addition to focusing on the overall sound of each song, I also focus on listening closely to each vocalist and each instrumentalist in isolation, particularly in terms of their individual performance, level of talent, and where/how they've been positioned in the final mix. Yes, in the past few months since Darren's departure, Dave's mixes may not have quite reached the high bar set by Darren but, in this case, Dave's "Sailing" mix is spot-on. I hope he keeps it going from here on. Now, in specific relation to your concern about not hearing Steve Todd's percussion in the mix (or it being "muffled"), I suggest you take another listen. Steve is playing 3 different percussion instruments in this video, namely triangle, chimes, and congas (the small hanging bell is not relevant). Dave has correctly featured Steve's triangle and chimes prominently in the mix, so everyone can definitely hear them very nicely indeed. In terms of the two conga drums, their signature 'popping' beat can be heard throughout the song, albeit more subtly than the triangle and the chimes. Dave has correctly positioned them in this song as support instruments, not as featured instruments. Steve's congas are given feature status in some of HSCC's other songs, where appropriate. Phil, I hope this clears things up a little for you. Cheers, John.

    Beautiful memories with this song in the summer of 1980 studying in Milwaukee and Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Senior college in Economics. I met the most beautiful girl in Brookfield, Wi. At her family's lake house, we were sailing on her sailboat and suddenly SAILING was heard on the radio in the background and it was a very passionate afternoon in the middle of the lake. It's been 43 years and I remember her with great affection. Her family treated me very well, on the weekends when I went to visit her, Friday 6 in the afternoon until Sunday at 2 in the afternoon when I returned to the Campus where I lived in the University Residences. An experience that I remember every time I listen to this song. Now she lives in Florida and is dedicated to Real Estate. She is happily married to an American. Each of us follows our path. “Where there was fire 🔥… Ashes remain” 🙏 Today, with my 66 years of life, it still occupies a place in my heart. 🇲🇽♥️USA

    I guess we all come back to our fave HSSC Songs. So,so many. There's something magically moving with this one. I sail or I call it sailing. I'm not sure how to describe it, but I suppose it's a form of meditation. For me it's laying out in the sun, eyes closed. Letting mind wander as I imagine I'm literally flying above the sea. I can hear the sound of the waves, cries of gulls and colour of the sea below is like a jewel.. With the warmth of the sun I'm literally sailing. Great cover of a classic.
