The Association 🎩🪄Along Comes Mary / Windy (Live on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, 1967) They actually explain themselves like a machine, and that’s part of what makes this clip so great! An underrated, nerdy ’60s band with incredible harmonies. #TheAssociation

🎸🎸🔥🔥"Ride Like the Wind" is a song performed by American musician Christopher Cross. It was released as the opening track on the B-side of his self-titled 1979 debut album, which won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. The song's lyrics tell the story of a convicted criminal fleeing to Mexico. Told from a first-person perspective, it describes how a convicted outlaw and multiple murderer, escaping a death sentence by hanging, has to "ride like the wind" to reach "the Mexican border," where, presumably, the gang pursuing him will be unable to catch him.

olivia: the yacht rock music taste one was dans contribution. he’s like, “It has to be something that you don't like really actually like. like, it has to be kind of cringy and funny” zane: Christopher Cross and Don Henley, which I can't go into right now. I can't believe you don't like yacht rock, dude. What's not to like? olivia: i know. Maybe if I was spending more time on boats, I would like it. This is terrible. Am I digging myself in a deeper wall?

It's 1980 in Austin and you had no idea that Christopher Cross's song "Sailing" was about Lake Travis⛵️ LAKE TRAVIS, TX (FOX 7 Austin)— When you think of the definitive yacht rock anthem, you probably picture the beaches of Malibu or the coast of Maui. But the ultimate masterpiece of the genre—Christopher Cross’s iconic, 5-time Grammy-winning hit "Sailing"—actually traces its roots straight to the choppy waters of Travis County. While Cross was born and raised in San Antonio, graduating from Alamo Heights High School, it wasn’t until he moved his musical ambitions up the road to Austin that the inspiration for his signature 1980 Billboard No. 1 single truly took shape during frequent trips across Lake Travis. Cross has often noted that the classic track wasn’t written about an ocean getaway, but rather the genuine sense of escape he discovered in Travis County as he transitioned into adulthood. Reflecting on the local inspiration behind the legendary song, Cross shared: "It's about an older friend of mine who had a boat... and we would go out on Lake Travis. It was just a transition from being a kid to being an adult... just a very wonderful way to escape the transition of growing up." That peace he found on the lake ultimately became a song universally recognized as the absolute pinnacle of yacht rock. This edited video includes shots of Lake Travis.

Michael Stipe has repeatedly singled out “Country Feedback” as one of his favourite R.E.M. songs, and on this night it gained another extraordinary voice. Neil Young joined the band at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in 1998, adding an extended guitar solo that pushes the song far beyond the restraint of its studio recording. Originally released on Out of Time, the track was built around heartbreak, regret and emotional collapse rather than a conventional chorus. As Young stretches the final section into a roaring wall of sound, the performance becomes less like a guest appearance and more like two generations meeting inside the same song.

🔥🎸🔥 Heart – “Crazy On You” (1976) When Heart unleashed “Crazy On You” in 1976, they delivered one of the most electrifying debuts in rock history. Ann Wilson’s powerhouse vocals and Nancy Wilson’s legendary acoustic intro hit like a one‑two punch — delicate one second, explosive the next. Live, the song became a showcase of pure musicianship and raw emotion, proving that Heart wasn’t just another rock band… they were a force rewriting the rules of the genre.

Clue is on my weekend rewatch list because I need some Tim Curry in my life. I love this film for two reasons: the cast & the script. The dialogue is hilarious, razor-sharp and holds up exceptionally well decades after the film’s release. This movie still makes me laugh. Not only that, ensembles don’t really get better than this? Curry leads a group of actors that includes Madeline Kahn, Christopher Lloyd, Martin Mull, and Michael McKean. Get me to the weekend already.

🚨UFO has been spotted ‼️ 🔥 UFO LIVE — “Rock Bottom” in all its sweaty, shirtless glory! 1970s chaos unlocked. Phil Mogg — topless, purple pants glued to him, howling like a man possessed. Michael Schenker — long hair whipping, no shirt, American flag pants on full display — absolutely incinerating that teal Flying V with one of the greatest solos in rock history. Raw energy. Zero polish. Pure hard rock attitude. This is what legends looked like before the lights got fancy. If your blood still pumps to classic riffs, hit play and crank it.

“Smooth” is a collaboration between legendary guitarist Carlos Santana and Matchbox Twenty frontman Rob Thomas, featured on Santana's 1999 album Supernatural. Written by Thomas and Itaal Shur, the Latin-infused rock track became a monumental global phenomenon, spending 12 consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, reaching #1 in Canada, and becoming a major hit worldwide. Its infectious guitar riff and passionate vocals fueled one of the most remarkable commercial comebacks in modern music. Incredibly, despite being a rock icon since the late 1960s, this was Santana's first-ever #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, achieved when he was 52 years old. Rob Thomas originally envisioned George Michael as the song's vocalist, but ultimately recorded it himself, creating one of the most successful collaborations in pop-rock history. The track swept the 2000 Grammy Awards, winning Record of the Year and Song of the Year, while helping Santana earn nine Grammy Awards in a single night, tying the record previously set by Michael Jackson's Thriller.

One of only two times that Michael performed “You Rock My World” live during the 30th Anniversary Celebration on this date in 2001, the new song from Invincible at the time with full stage production, dancers locked in, that unmistakable command of the room and special onstage appearances by Usher and Chris Tucker. Twenty five years later the footage still hits like it just dropped. This is what it looks like when the King was still introducing new material to a packed house that already knew every move. MJ’s reaction to Chris Tucker kicking with the wrong leg always takes me out 😂😂

Kevin Johnson telling a story about guarding Michael Jordan in the finals “So we fly in from Phoenix to Chicago. I fall asleep on the plane and then the head coach wakes me up, right? He says, Hey, I just want to let you know, game three is going to be your game. Said, Cool. You know I believe that I’m going to have a bounce back. He said you are guarding Michael Jordan. And I’m thinking we down 0-2 our best player is getting scorched. Know you going to put me who had a rough two games on Michael Jordan, right? So I go back to sleep. Plane land. I wake up. I’m like, damn I had a nightmare. I thought the coach came and told me I’m guarding Michael Jordan. We walking off the plane. The coach was right there. And I’m like I had this dream you came and woke me up and told me you want me to guard Michael Jordan. He said, you are. God as my witness we get on the team bus we take it from the airport we staying at the hotel downtown. I get off the bus. I tell equipment manager to take my bags. I see a church across the street. I walk straight in that church and sit in the front row and I’m like, Jesus, I don’t believe in you no more. There’s no way if you loved me and died on the cross and did all the things you would be having me guard Michael Jordan” (Via Club520podcast)
