    What’s so difficult at least for me… is that the music of 70s 80s was just so good… will never be duplicated… Most of us knew where we were when music of this era was played..cars we drove, jobs we had, places we parked….girlfriends… we had no idea at the time that we would grow into adults and eventually become old and wore out. But what and era, throw in 60s….what a great time to grow up… Those days have long passed. To everyone listening pass the music along to the next generation.. They will be glad you did!!! Peace✌🏻

    On September 20, 1981 I took my GF to see Arthur at the theater in Shawnee, OK. It was her 17th birthday.
    I broke up with her that night and was a little insensitive to her. She did nothing wrong and she was a gentle sweetheart. I was almost 19. I moved away to California but never forgot her.
    I would cry out her name while trucking across the Mojave desert.
    I still love her deeply. Everytime I hear this song it just kills me because it was in the movie. I’m 61 now and my love for her still lives on. 😞

      I don't think there's any hope in Hell you'll ever find her at this point she probably got married decades ago.

    Chris, I was 7 years old, when I saw this in the theater with my Mom, in NYC 1981. The song was and still is a CLASSIC. My Mom saw the filming of the scene in front of Bergdorf Goodman, while she was on the bus, going to work, early in the morning. Being a New Yorker, the film and the song resonated even more. Thanks for the magic.

    I heard the song on the radio a few weeks ago and I realized that such a masterpiece does not seem to have been composed in the past decades.
    The melody, vocals and arrangement testify to the fact that true artists were at work in the production.
    Art has the task of beautifying the world and enriching it with timelessly beautiful melodies, and not creating even more chaos and noise.
    Christopher Cross has lived up to this maxim with this musical masterpiece.

    The song talks about the feeling of freedom and escapism that sailing provides. The lyrical self finds peace and serenity at sea, where he can dream and free himself from the worries of everyday life. The lyrics suggest that the sail is a metaphor for the journey of life, where the wind represents the opportunities and challenges we encounter along the way.
