This song always hurts so so good. Maureen McGovern 's voice is so clean and strong. She sings is so simply and beautifully, subtle and then she just kills it. "I'm the one to fly to". So many artists over sing songs, nothing against their talent. Christopher Reeves is so good. And so is Margo Kidder. In my opinion so underated as a actor . Anyway this song is brilliant

[@danceswithcomicbooks7733]

I'm a stright guy and even I can say Christopher Reeve was a good-looking & handsome dude...

[@user-ve5ln5le9y]

My god Chris Reeve was beyond gorgeous. That scene where he’s staring at her at the table in the fortress- I thought he has the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen. And I was just a kid. I thought he was the most handsome man ever ❤️‍🔥

[@dzikuz991]

You can see what modern superhero movies are missing, that charm and magic the classic ones had,

[@miamidolphinsfan]

absolutely, this was and still is the BEST Superhero movie ever

[@jocastadidntknew5980]

John Williams composed this timeless love theme for Superman (1978). Margot Kidder was originally supposed to sing like this for the film, but for all her grace, she just didn’t have the voice (which makes her more loveable in my eyes). That being said, hearing it sung like this really emphasizes how powerful this song is.

[@syedismailbarakbah7987]

There’s nobody can replace him as Superman. Saw the movie in 1978 during school holiday. I was 12 years old .

@ Marc. Just a note and comment to fully agree with and endorse Marc's insightful thoughts. The charm and beauty of this film will certainly never be, should never be, forgotten. This is what the essence of what true romance is all about.. To Chris and Margot, thanks for the exquisite memories! RIP...

🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍

[@Loneman1]

I literally found this song the night before Margot Kidder passed away. I was born in '81, and she was, and always will be, my Lois Lane, just like Christopher Reeve is my Superman. RIP Lois.......

[@vincentwan507]

Christopher Reeve, the most handsome of all d ‘Superman’ actors. I’m sure the girls will agree.

[@thereistheonlyone]

Oh Lord.. This song. Remind me of my late dad. He bought some music cassetes one day in '79, one of the cover was Christopher Reeves' Superman. Oh, how i've loved the song til now. So mesmerizing. Then again, someday in early '80-81.. he went home and sat and started to read the books. He seemed so.. 'in his own world'.. I was curious. What is it? Superman comic books. And some others.. Oh.. I love to see the drawings, every panel because i could not read til i was at the 2nd grade of elementary school. I just played all day.. 😍 From that moment, i always had a dream to fly. When my sist & i were outside to see the plane flies, i said it again.. "I wanna fly to America to see Superman". Then my sister told me that i was dreaming. Superman was not real. And she showed me the 'Letters to Superman' section in the last page of the comic book. She read it for me. It broke my heart. Damn her ! And sometims, just sometimes.. Whenever i miss my dad, my imagination, my childhood, i come upstairs in the still of the night, as i look up in the stars - i will always think about flying with Superman & those super heroes to save the world. Thank you, papa. 💫

[@frankholt4325]

I remember seeing this with my mom on my birthday in July of 1978. Maureen McGovern's song is beautiful. Christopher Reeve will always be Superman.

[@kevinm4175]

What a GREAT VIDEO!!!. I LOVED THE SONG and I will ALWAYS THINK OF Christopher Reeves, as, "Superman". Nobody will EVER COME CLOSE, to being him!!!

[@marieblue]

“It’s not a bird! It’s not a plane! It’s Superman!” One famous quote‼️ The superhero needs no introduction, even less so after eight motion pictures (so far) : Superman 1978, Superman II 1980, Superman III 1983, Superman IV : The Quest for Peace 1987, Superman Returns 2006, Man of Steel 2013, Batman Versus Superman : Dawn of Justice 2016, Justice League 2017. That said, the lady rendering “Can You Read My Mind?” deserves her fair share of attention too. After all, Maureen McGovern, called “The Stradivarius Voice”, made a name for herself recording movie theme songs. In 1972, the head of 20th Century Records hired her to perform the Oscar-winning “The Morning After”, theme from the disaster film “The Poseidon Adventure”. In 1974, McGovern recorded another Oscar-Winning track, “We May Never Love Like This Again” from the catastrophe film “The Towering Inferno”, then the Oscar-nominated “Wherever Love Takes Me” from the disaster movie “Gold”. Little wonder she was nicknamed the “Disaster Theme Queen”‼️ In 1980, she even made a cameo appearance as a singing nun in the comedy-disaster “Airplane!”… a hilarious parody of Helen Reddy’s scene as a singing sister in “Airport 1975”. “Can You Read My Mind?” was the SUPER-SONGSTRESS’ last movie theme to chart… but most definitely not the ending of her successful career‼️ 💚🎬💜

[@andypinedo4628]

Christopher Reeve was the best Superman and Clark Kent. A real gentleman.

[@marcwood4987]

Neither one of them was made of steel, unfortunately. Both of their lives ended tragically. Such beautiful people, may their memories live on.

[@robertgillis2609]

This is wonderful! Back in 1978 this song got so much airplay -- and you have perfectly captured the Lois/Superman relationship, as well as the friendship between the late, great Christoper Reeve and Margot Kidder. Thank you for this!

[@miamidolphinsfan]

truth

[@RichardJ.Winstanley]

Most superhero roles today are behind a mask or with special hat, long hair, beard or something. But superman, it was all about the iconic face. SO when Christopher Reeve came out of it, it just was made for him and he was of it. You can have so many Spiderman, batman or others and then you have good looking actors who play superman. But seriously, Christopher Reeve was it. Imagine if the CGI technologies today were at their disposal during Christoper Reeve's time...

[@biltrex]

I remember randomly hearing this on a school bus radio when I was probably 10 or 11. As a huge Superman and John Williams nerd, I immediately recognized it. I just randomly thought about it and now I’m happy to know it wasn’t some fever dream, it actually happened! It’s not an obvious choice to make, turning this into a pop song, but it is such a lovely theme!

Can you read my mind? Do you know what it is you do to me? Don't know who you are Just a friend from another star. Here I am, like a kid at the school Holding hands with a god or a fool Will you look at me, quivering, Like a little girl, shivering, You can see right through me. Can you read my mind? Can you picture the things I'm thinking of? Wondering why you are All the wonderful things you are. You can fly, you belong to the sky You and I could belong to each other. If you need a friend, I'm the one to fly too If you need, to be loved Here I am, Read my mind!

[@bungalowlogic7676]

Years later, still impactful. I remember as a boy this recording playing over radio in dad's 77 Monte Carlo. Original billing as Superman, The Movie. That's what an event it was in Cinema. (Like, Star Trek, The Motion Picture- on or about the same year) Also why Christopher Reeves' crippling horse riding accident hit so many so hard... We lost our Superman. I sincerely hope John Williams will forever be composing music for the Angels in Heaven. Such a gift to mankind!

[@edwardkrzynowek241]

I'm reading the comments of others on this one, as I listen to this spotlight on the soundtrack, for the first time in many years. Their comments are so special, it makes my experience that much better. They sometimes say that movie time is magic time. I say, absolutely. Christopher and Margot were beautiful together. That lovely song just amplifies the feeling. I was also a late 70's guy listening and watching with my first wife--a special girl. I'm so sorry things for the both of them were tumultuous and heartbreaking. But, I'm glad for the few hours they were frozen in time together, that I can still picture and hear them this way. RIP my friends. Your time spent soaring is not forgotten. And, your efforts together were not made in vain. Thank you.
