Every Dave Matthews song -- nm - ty97 Nov 15, 09:05
The song Brandy. Kenny Loggins, Hall & Oates, Christopher Cross are the first that come to mind. -- nm - Spawn Nov 15, 08:56 5
- welcome back, bub -- nm - mud Nov 15, 08:58 4
  - Thanks. Trying, any way. Currently, I can only post from one of my four devices to ST. - Spawn Nov 15, 09:02 3
    - Ugh. Hope you get it sorted out -- nm - prayformojo Nov 15, 09:07 1
      - Heh. Save the TaP, though. -- nm - Spawn Nov 15, 09:09
    - ?? .. bery!! -- nm - mud Nov 15, 09:02
That Christopher Cross song. Sailing? -- nm - zunk takes things literally Nov 15, 08:51 5
- Is any song, with sailing as the title or sailing ⛵️ in the lyrics a yacht rock song? -- nm - Trending Nov 15, 08:52 4
  - I'd say no. Someone offered "Come Sail Away" and it doesn't have that vibe at all. Actually I disagree with almost every choice in this thread. -- nm - zunk takes things literally Nov 15, 09:06
  - No. -- nm - znufrii Nov 15, 08:56 2
    - I give up 🤷‍♂️ -- nm - Trending Nov 15, 08:57 1
      - Heh. -- (edited) - znufrii Nov 15, 08:58
Ride Like The Wind by Christopher Cross with Michael McDonald. It's on one of my volleyball mixes. -- nm - con_carne Nov 15, 08:50
No idea but here's the Sirius XM playlist -- (link) - oblique Nov 15, 08:48 1

Surprised it hasn't been named already. I'M ON A BOAT!! -- nm - VMan Nov 15, 08:43
Margaritaville. I have no idea what yacht rock is. -- nm - Krusty Nov 15, 08:43 12
- "White People Catalina Wine Mixer Wedding Lite Rock Music" -- nm - JaxSean Nov 15, 08:55 4
  - 👍🏻 Nice description. -- nm - Krusty Nov 15, 09:17
  - FTR, there's decent black representation. Bill Withers, George Benson, The Pointer Sisters, Kool and the Gang can all be found on the Spotify playlist -- nm - con_carne Nov 15, 09:08
  - It’s the white zinfandel of rock music. -- nm - znufrii Nov 15, 09:04
  - perfect, also, i feel like the 70s is the heyday of yacht rock -- nm - Andie Nov 15, 08:58
- Yeah, I don't think I'd heard the term before yesterday. But how often is a genre named 25 years after it was popular? -- nm - Roger More Nov 15, 08:48 2
  - One time. -- nm - zunk takes things literally Nov 15, 08:52 1
    - Ha! -- nm - Krusty Nov 15, 09:13
- Same…I’m trying not to make any sudden movements though, because ST is on the verge of going Viking on this one -- nm - Trending Nov 15, 08:44 2
  - Africa, Baby Come Back, Take It Easy, Summer Breeze, Rich Girl, Silly Love Songs, Dance with Me, Dream Weaver -- nm - JD Nov 15, 08:48
  - Haha! I'm currently listening to Tool which I don't think counts. Lol -- nm - Krusty Nov 15, 08:45
- Summer Breeze -- nm - VMan Nov 15, 08:44
Baker Street (Gerry Rafferty), for some reason -- nm - prayformojo Nov 15, 08:40
I mean, Christopher Cross' Sailing is the signature Yacht Rock song. Otherwise, Stephen Still's Southern Cross. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 15, 08:39
late Eagles, late Doobies, late Fleetwood Mac -- nm - mud Nov 15, 08:36 1
- oh, song (sorry) "Heartache Tonight" -- nm - mud Nov 15, 08:39
Steely Dan - David Nov 15, 08:33 6
- Gross, no. Christopher Cross, yes. -- nm - Dark Callisto 🦊 Nov 15, 08:52 5
  - Steely Dan always struck me as a terrible Moody Blues knock-off. -- nm - David Nov 15, 08:52 4
    - oh honey -- nm - Remlik Nov 15, 09:06
    - Gross, no! Moody Blues is great. Steely Dan is… ick. -- nm - Dark Callisto 🦊 Nov 15, 09:02 1
      - Exactly. -- nm - David Nov 15, 09:03
    - listen better. -- nm - mud Nov 15, 08:57
