May 25, 2012 - Too funny. I'm also 33 and this tune reminds me of being at my nans house back in the day. Weird as even then I remember liking it. Makes me feel old!!

May 26, 2012 - as has been said -- if you can't recognize Michael McDonald's distinctive voice, you don't know jack.

TheTxlady1049 Says:

May 26, 2012 - Told hubby this should be the song played when his ashes are scattered to the wind.He agrees!Great song

TheTxlady1049 Says:

May 26, 2012 - sounds awesome!I play this when we ride our HarleysOpen Road rules!

May 26, 2012 - Not Jack, Jesse!

TheTxlady1049 Says:

May 26, 2012 - right - You don't know JesseI looked for Jesse Atchison, or a song called "private progress". Didn't find much info, except a Jesse Atchison with a group named Floraline, it appears they were associated with a label named "private lessons".From the looks of that person, he is not near old enough to have sung with Christopher Cross on a song produced in 1980.So if you are going to insist that you are right, and everyone else on here is wrong, you better produce some info to back it up.

May 26, 2012 - and nice throwing in the "ask Dan Federici" challenge -- since he died what, 4 years ago?

May 29, 2012 - Real men don't listen to Christopher Cross...I was working the night shift in Tulsa, and stopped at a U-Totem to buy beer for the drive home. I saw the 8-track, and when I paid for it, I told the clerk that I was buying it for my wife....Kind of like Air Supply. Both great records.

thatisso80s Says:

May 29, 2012 - Michael McDonald was THE go-to for duets and background vocals at the time... so distintive sounding and a very capable tenor.
