Glorious stripped-down version of Christopher Cross's "Sailing" you've likely never heard before

I bought the 45 and on the way home I was asked, “so… do you know what a ‘centerfold’ is?” And, thanks to field porn, I did.

As for Christopher Cross’s “Sailing” – whenever I’m riding a bike (which hasn’t happened in a long time) this song always goes thru my head. When I was 9 or 10 and riding my bike a lot (more than I had been, anyway) there was a Huffy commercial that used “Ride Like the Wind,” and I rode a Huffy, and I couldn’t ride without thinking of that commercial (especially in the late afternoon, on hilly terrain*, as the ad depicted). Somewhere along the line, for some reason, that morphed into “Sailing”.

(Ah! There it is…)

*Well as hilly as it got in North TX, anyway
