Favorite singer: #FreddyMercury
But Favorite pop song: Sailing by #ChristopherCross

I know people who listen to death metal that love that song. Christopher should start a #Patreon asking everyone who appreciates that song to send him $1. By the end of the week, he'd be hiring #BillGates to shine his shoes.

Roughly twice a year for, now, the majority of my life "Arthur's Theme" by #ChristopherCross has appeared in my head seemingly out of nowhere. I have not watched #Arthur this millennium. I enjoy Mr Cross but he's not in any of my #playlists.

And still, I get caught between the moon and New York City. This is now the best that I can do!

@Mrfunkedude Anything with #MichealMcdonald or #ChristopherCross.

*we have to sail... like the wind... to New York City. where we'll be kept running, by takin it to the streets.*

But what do I know, I'm just a fool who believes.

On this day in 1980, Christopher Cross released his debut single “Ride Like the Wind”. #ChristopherCross #RideLiketheWind #80s #80smusic #softrock #yachtrock #boomtownpodcast

40 years ago today, Christopher Cross released his second studio album Another Page (1983). #ChristopherCross #AnotherPage #80s #80smusic #yachtrock #boomtownpodcast

Great Albums - 1970s: #ChristopherCross – S/T (1979). Cross sold 6 million and won 5 Grammys for this LP, beating The Wall for Album of the Year. This is the kind of music many critics think they’re above, but fans of Cross get why “Never Be the Same” and “Sailing” endure – because beneath all the mellow vibes and slick LA production (most of the band that played on SD’s Aja), are real emotions. Plus, “Ride Like the Wind” kills by any standard. #GreatAlbums1970s, #Vinyl, #Album, #Pop, #YachtRock
