My BFF went to this movie and called me from the lobby sobbing. This movie is us! when she died in 2004 I heard her take her last breath. She was artistic and fun and crazy and Jewish. I was a little weird, live a Gentile straight life but when she died we had loved each other, our spouses, been through illness. We talked every night at 10:00 for 32 years no matter where we were. I always cry when I hear this. I miss every day of my life. Her name was Susie and I was so blessed to have her.

Do YOURSELF a favor and don't Grieve, rather cherish and honor the memories the two of you shared. When you cherish memories, it allows you to be able to conduct daily tasks

[@alicehenderson7983]

@@edstevens6839 yes but she needs to grieve too, you never prevent someone from grieving, it hurts them more, I know a lot about it, I lost a few friends, one was the hardest one on my emotions, I wouldn't wish that on anyone, Bette went through a hard time when she lost her friend from school, she was killed in a car accident like my friend was, I know how bad that hurt Bette, my heart still goes out to her, you have to let the person grieve, it hurts yes, but they have to get the hurt out, their is nothing wrong with crying

Yes! Agreed!

@Geo Skan - yeah, that just blows my mind. How do you not know Bette Midler. Dude, you need to get yourself some culture. There’s a lot more to life than rap / hip-hop music.

And watch the movie The Rose. One of her best films

I was unaware they were the same sound track

[@joankisloski6972]

I laughed & cried through the movie Beaches. The song reminds me of my Parents. We always lived close. In my parents later years when my husband & I bought our home, we moved them into our home. (His parents lived around the corner) This gave us the opportunity to be with then until the all went to heaven. I was blessed to be with my parents when they passed. The song is sad but uplifting at the same time.

[@joankisloski6972]

LOL I had to re-read this. I got so emotional my brain ran faster then my fingers. I had to make a correction. :)

[@francine8806]

The movie is called "Beaches." Bette Midler is a famous singer and actress.

[@brendaisajiw3417]

The movie is "Beaches", Ty. It's a great movie. It's heartwarming and a bit heartbreaking but ends good filled with love and hope.

[@patriciapalmer1377]

She started out out singinging in the 70s in The Baths, a famous New York bath house frequented by the gay community in Manhattan and became so famous, Johhny Carson invited her to sing on the his Late Night Show, a tv staple and blew everybody away including him and was so beloved, she was the only singer invited on his legendary last show and everyone cried. Her concerts were mindblowing extravaganzas !!

[@elizabethstanford6826]

I can't believe that you don't know Bette Midler she is one of the most famous singers of all time and a legend in the music industry. I think she has been singing for 35-40 years now. Love her! Thank you for playing that one.

[@shannontumey9682]

My best friend told me this song was how she felt about me. But in all honesty she was the strongest most amazing person I ever met and listening to this I feel like this is about her. She was a force that shined so bright and my life will never be complete now that she is gone.

[@tanyamonk1280]

My Mom always wanted this song played at her funeral... so I made sure her wish was granted and as a collage of photos of my mom's life played over a big screen, the song played in the background and at that moment, I LOST IT. She was my very best friend and I miss her everyday. July 12th will be one year without her physical presence.

[@gauchemurleau]

Sorry for your loss. Do you still have that photo collage?

[@reha1066]

Same exact thing. Moms funeral, this song and her life in pictures on the screen. EVERYONE LOST IT! I can barely listen to the song anymore.

[@wendyryder2708]

Tanya Monk Hi Tanya! So sorry to hear about your mum! I lost my mum on 23rd January,2007! I miss her lots! We sang Amazing Grace at her funeral and now every time we sing it at church I totally lose it! I have several photos of her where I can see them! Every 25th July which was her birthday we light a candle and sing happy birthday! It helps to get us through! Take care and stay safe! From Australia.

When I watch Beaches, the movie, I cry every time. I'm crying now. You have to watch this movie. Bette Midler, She sang this beautifully!! Great reaction!!

[@edwardjayallan]

Through serendipity, this song came up for me today -- ten years ago two days ago I lost my Michael to a heart attack -- we had been together in life for 32 years, and in the ten years since then I think of him every day.

[@terrialmond1]

It’s a beautiful song, and Bette Midler’s version is the best in my opinion. I have sang that song at weddings and funerals.

[@johnperkins5467]

I,ve dedicated this song to my Mom and Dad.R.I.P

[@sharonannrees2824]

This is such a beautiful song that always makes me cry, especially since I lost my sister! This is Bette's song: she owns it!

[@helenkindrick7036]

The first time I heard it was when watching the movie Beaches. The wind beneath my wings is my my husband. He picks me up when I'm down, he cheers me on when I'm trying to succeed in anything I do, and he holds me tight when things go wrong. 27 years of marriage and still loving each other more than ever ❤️ And to think I'm not 50 yet. I can't wait for the next 40/50 years together!

[@ceciliaramos2280]

I love the movie “Beaches”. I think about my mom who passed in 2005 when I hear this song. I miss her dearly.

[@ginaarendtson9478]

That is the Divine Miss M!

[@christinethurman7506]

I know this song from the movie "Beaches", I would dedicate this song to my Grandma and the reason I would do that is because she has been there for me through so much in my life and always say keep your head up and be brave and strong.

[@suejackson1731]

This song always brings tears to my eyes.

[@bethshadid2087]

Such a beautiful song. The movie was so sad. Another great song by Bette is called The Rose. You need to check it out 🤷

[@jojoelf1]

This song was popular the year I graduated from high school. I was involved in the music department and at the end of the year we had a talent show. 2 of my friends and I wanted to do this song in the show. Another girl had already taken the song. Man were we tore up. It was our last year and we really wanted that song! We almost came to blows over it. Good times. The movie is really great btw.

[@jdwatson8482]

This song makes me think of the movie Beaches. My friend passed and she was was the wind beneath my wings. She was godmother to three of greatest special needs kids…smiled, enjoyed and laughed through the highs and lows. Thanked me as she died for giving her a chance to be a part of their lives, she never had any of her own.

[@joelliebler5690]

Great. Sentimental tearjerker. In the movie it is a tribute to her best friend who is dying!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻☮️

[@angelgrl141]

The movie was set to take place I. Northern California, but the beach house scenes where a actually shot her at Chrystal Cove. There were arc Sever homes built righ in Chrystal Cove in the 30's & 40's. It is equestrian zone, so you can ride your hours Ed on the beach. During the making of the film, Bette, Barbara, even cast & crew would crux the beach Community. Super cool. I must of cried a river of tears, my best friend who had breast cancer vowed we' a take her to premier. Since we watched it being filled early sping. Dorothy made it to the premier. All 5 of us buddies giving our best bubbly support. She always supported my Hollywood days, when people said I was crazy, shed say DO IT GIRLFRIEND. YOUR FAN. AND I'M YOU BIGGEST FAN WELL. Turns out she was our hero we admired, her strength, courage. Heart full of love & support for each of us. Shed say it's God's plan. Go with the flow. That song" Wings Beneath Our Wings" is Dorothy's. Song. Did I mention Bette have us tickets for LA Priemer. The best times! Dorothy passed 5 weeks later. Blessings to us all with deep love in her heart. Beautiful friend. Perfect song. We were blessed. 🙇‍♀️😪🕊️💞✝️💓🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🙇‍♀️

I met Bette MIddler in 1970. The first time the Who's rock opera Tommy was staged was in Seattle at the Moore Theater, and my brother's band (he was lead guitar) was the pit band, given thumbs up by Pete Townshend. Bette Middler played the Acid Queen and Tommy's mother. She is an incredible singer and actress, and a very cool lady. This movie (from many years later) became a favorite of my wee daughter and me.

[@revaflowers3115]

"From A Distance" by Nancy Griffith,Bette Midler also did a version of it.It is a song for peace we could all use right now.

[@theghost6412]

Such a beautiful but soul crushing movie. Beaches. Good movie to watch, but keep the box of tissues close. Love Bette Midler and her voice and acting. That is her, the red head, starring in the movie as well.

[@51Saffron]

From a Distance, is another good song, so relevant for today.

[@sharonburris3873]

I never saw the movie "Beaches", but this song was all over the radio stations back in the 1980s. I loved the song and would sing it to my Husband all the time. Now I'm not a bad singer. I can carry a tune, but I'm no Bette Midler either!

[@joedirt688]

The movie "Beaches" is as heartfelt a movie and soundtrack that comes along once in a lifetime.

[@angelahomicz1813]

I think Bette Midler is such an amazing actress.....and she has a voice that really touches you. There are some singers with way more technical ability and smoother tone but fail where she excels - making you feel what she’s feeling in song.

[@amym1885]

I believe the radio. It makes me think about my mom. She's a strong Christian woman who has been through so much and still has a strong faith in God. She's one of my hereos. The movie is called"Beaches ." It's a really good movie.

[@susanechevarria4320]

This is a song that I wanted played at my funeral dedicated to my sister Lisa. This song aways touches my heart. Bette Midler is one of a kind. She's hilariously funny and see can make you cry. One of me faves is "MOONLIGHT DANCING"

[@chazrjr]

This song is about LIFELONG FRIENDS, I am luck to have that in Chris....Friends since 1970, we're now in our early 60's and still as close as the first time we met.....WE both are lucky!!

I first heard it watching Beaches. I wanted to have it played at my mom’s funeral as she was my best friend❤️

[@angiemunoz7555]

I asked my kids over 10 years ago to sing this as my funeral. When my daughter heard it, a couple of years ago for the first time she cried and said that she couldn't do it. It's too sad.

[@RaquelWarner-yb9xs]

My then 14 year old daughter, used to call out to me often “mom mom mom!! Usually when I was super busy with life, I would yell “what”. She’d say “you are the wind beneath my wings”. She is now a mom herself.

[@1920Janice]

I saw the movie “Beaches” when it first came out. Loved it and the song. The movie is about two friends who met when they were kids and truly loved each other. The song for me is about my mother who’s funeral was last week. She gave so much of herself to her kids. I can’t listen to this song without crying. I miss her. Makes you wonder how many tears a human body can hold?? Do check out “The Rose” by Bette Midler. Beautiful song!! Now I have to go listen to it! 😢❤️🎵

My wife picked this out as our song 30 years ago. Thanks for reminding me what a great pick it was.

[@bonniesampt6484]

This song helps me get through my grief, the loss of my soulmate 💔 😢

[@sunnycalico6643]

Absolutely beautiful friendship movie, not just a "chick flick". Saw it with my BFF when released and many times since. The (California) "beach" scenes were filmed at Crystal Cove State Park in OC, Ca (Newport/Laguna) which is absolutely stunning with tons of history open to the public. The "cabin" is now a film "museum". I walk that beach several times a year and take time to sit on THAT porch and reflect. Many movies have been filmed in that location. Worth a visit.

[@jessiem276]

I wish I could give this a 1000 thumbs up. One of my favorite songs. This is one of the songs that was played when my husband & I renewed our wedding vows. He came walking out to this song in his Army officer dress blues, and he looked so handsome. I chose this song because he truly is my "Hero". I don't know who requested this song, but I'm glad you reacted to it. Thanks, Ty!

[@amilya4u304]

The thought of kindergarteners singing this song to moms is making me want to cry all over again. If they did that when my babydoll was in kindergarten I would've been a complete mess!

[@battlegirldeb]

Not sure who I first heard singing this song as many people recorded in the early 80's even Glady Knight , Shenna Easton , and Lou Rawls. Bette sing it for the movie Beaches. It about two girls who became friends after meeting one day at the beach. I have never cried as much as I did when watching this movie the first time. Back then It was about my best friend Diana. Now when I hear this song and watch this movie it's all about my Mom. Who left me last year to be with the rest of my ancestors.

[@Mouse.3]

Bette Midler, the singer is also the actress with the red curly hair in the movie Beaches and in the music video you played. This song always makes me cry.

[@copperdiablo2717]

Everyone's had that friend that lives life on high, and we all secretly want that too. We grew up very poor and often each others only friends, close doesn't describe us, we were intertwined.That person was my brother for me & my sister both. He lived life to the fullest,a light,always smiling, always helping others,always playing,worked his butt off to turn around and give it to others. We were envious of his happy go lucky attitude and the way he did for other's.. We grew up fast and rough, it bent us girls but Justin was invincible to the weights of the world. We lost him at 25 years old when a car pulled out in front of him while he was on his motorcycle. We both struggled for years after his passing bc we felt the best part of us was lost. He is definitely the wind for us,to this day he pushes us to be better and more childlike. Who knew he was telling us the same things therapist and councilors would tell us as adults.

[@animalsareawesome4312]

It is a fabulous movie, you definitely need to watch it. I think of my mom... and grandmother that passed away... every time I hear it. They both have been there for me for everything in my life. I would not be who I am if it weren't for them! If you haven't listened to The Rose from Bette Midler you have to listen to it. Another classic!

[@KestralWolfe]

I remember seeing this movie when it came out. My sister and mom took me to see it because they heard it was good. It was beautiful, sad, exciting, and heartbreaking. And those two ladies are the ones I'd dedicate the song Wind Beneath My Wings to. They've supported me through a whole lifetime of bs, and never once asked for recognition for the sacrifices, for the support, for the love they gave me. I was truly blessed when mom adopted me away from the biological parents.

[@dealiecolburn7060]

The movie is Beaches. We left the theaters looking like someone had punched us in the face!

[@tiaelina1090]

I heard this song for the first time in 1989 when I went to see this movie with my best friend. The movie is about childhood best friends who remain that way till the tragic death of one of them. Every time I hear the song “wind beneath my wings” I think of my mum who has been an inspiration and one of my heroes. She had such a generous, loving spirit and our home was always filled with love, laughter and amazing smells would drift from our kitchen. She instilled the love of cooking and baking in me and one of my favourite memories is of the two of us cooking or baking together.💕💕

I first heard this song... I don't know, probably the radio, then the movie. It was a popular song around the time the movie came out, and a while afterward, I was so tired of hearing it. However, it was one of my mother's favorite songs. We lost her in 2015 to cancer, I always think of her when I hear this song.

[@Lion-9699]

I heard this song when it first came on the radio in 1989. The song still has a powerful and deep meaningful lyrics that anyone can emotionally and spiritually relate to. In the 1990s, it was an anthem for so many to “give back” some of their successes in life by being a good mentor to their own kids, family members, friends, fellow church members, and yes even some corporations have created mentor and mentee programs to help employees to become successful. Today, the song’s inspirational message is needed more than ever as so many are still struggling to survive. I truly believe that the song should be played today as often as possible to inspire and motivate others to become the best that they can be. Personally, the song gave me a purpose and meaning in life to help those who are less fortunate. God bless you for your heartfelt reaction.

Ugh who's cutting onions in here? A beautiful song and movie! I used to sing this to my mom as a kid. Also my brother loved it so much that as a little boy he had us call the radio station and request it played for his birthday. The DJ thought it was an odd choice for a birthday song lol, but he played it nevertheless. Back in the day this was sung often at graduations, funerals, awards ceremonies, etc. It was one of those songs that everyone could relate to in some way and Bette Midler did an awesome job.

[@americanmutt9089]

My mother loves Beaches and I remember watching it with her as a child, it’s a very emotional film. This is one of Bette Midler’s best songs, along with “The Rose” and “From a distance” I would say those are the top three songs by Bette and they are all very powerful tunes.

That is a beautiful and moving and inspiring movie (Beaches) 2 childhood friends who became estranged for a time during adulthood, but who reconnect later in life and the brunette gets terminally ill and Bette Midler's character ends up raising her friend's child. Beaches is the title of the movie. You really should watch the movie......
