Yup, that’s Michael McDonald. He was ordered by federal law to sing on every pop song from 1978-80 😎

Michael McDonald has a unique voice that people pick up on after hearing him just a few times. Christopher Cross is great, and you are right about the balance, nobody overpowers the other. Even the guitar solo held back and didn't take over. I always enjoy your reactions! Stay safe and take care.

I first heard this song as a kid while riding in the back of a pickup truck going down a dirt road. It was a special moment in my life. Now, 40 years later, I'm honored to see a new generation groove to this wonderful song. Yes, that's Michael Macdonald on background vocals. And...yes, the song still sounds as good today as it did way back then. Great work, and I could tell that you really liked this one.
