Sanibel -- the island, the song, and Crosby Stills Nash & Young

Captivating aerial drone footage on Sanibel and Captiva Islands set to the song "Sanibel", Denny Sarokin's hauntingly beautiful love ballad recorded by Crosby Stills Nash & Young.

Love Sanibel my favorite beach. I miss you. 😔

[@terrymalik3626]

I'm a seventy-one year-old man, resident of Sanibel. I cried for what it was . . . and for what it will be again.

[@KenKellySWFL]

I don’t think Sanibel will change too much because of the Ordinances. Fort Myers Beach on the other hand… I’m afraid it’ll look like Marco Island or Ft. Lauderdale Beach! 😩

Love Sanibel - Great Memories

[@zachmorello6592]

Best place on Earth. I love it.

[@robynsears6764]

Prayer for the island's healing. And for all who have been impacted by Ian.

[@michelepapero690]

I didn’t cry until i saw this. My happy place…destroyed. I’ve been going there for 32 Years and was planning to retire there 5 years from now. 💔

[@lesapatterson-kinsey5161]

Love this island. Wishing the best for the flora & fauna, the businesses and residents of Sanibel as they recover from Hurricane Ian. It's definitely one special place.

[@jeteye97]

Ian is not the first hurricane to hurt this island, even if it might have been the worst. Sanibel has always recovered. It will again this time, too.

[@italiansister8069]

Beautiful Sanibel will be missed but it'll come back better than ever 💔🌱

[@jeteye97]

Here I am, wearing my 2017 Sanibel Blues and Jazz Festival t-shirt. Thinking about all the great memories that hurricane Ian could never destroy. Wondering when this special place will be healed enough to return and considering how best to help. 🙏🏼💙🙏🏼💎🙏🏼💙🙏🏼

[@shayebureau6763]

So many wonderful memories on Sanibel, heartbroken for what has happened to the island, the people and the wildlife.

[@ellenfox5113]

Prayers for the people of Sanibel. You will come back strong, and we will come when the time is right.

Grew up going to our family home on Sanibel ! Since 1957. #originalislanderfamily

[@angelinaguarisco5707]

So hard to see this now.... It will never be the same. 💔

[@nicoleweaver8951]

It'll be better... Safer. Please have hope.... Our internal souls will grow even stronger now for these amazing communities from this day forward... God has SWFL in his hands.

[@KenKellySWFL]

The hundreds of workers on the island have been making great progress working 24/7! It’s amazing what’s been done in 6 weeks. There is still much work to do, but it will be done. It’ll look a little different, but it’ll be back!

[@angelinaguarisco5707]

@@KenKellySWFL my husband is one of those workers. It is impressive, but we are years from recovery. I'm waiting for clearance to begin the estuary cleanup. Machinery will not be allowed into the mangroves. It will take thousands of man hours to remove the debris.... As I said, a long road is ahead of us.

[@dixondjallen6620]

Captiva too...

[@joy3936]

Oh the memories…❤😢

[@sicomllc869]

...such a wonderful place!

[@thetruthfornow6045]

Such a great song done superbly and a great video. Yet so few hits. Sad.

[@jefrichan]

Thank you for this wonderful video.

[@JazTrance]

I had no idea CSN&Y did a song about Sanibel

[@jimdessey9865]

we were just there a month or two ago. Reports are that the lighthouse survived, but all the buildings are gone. So is most of the rest of the island. So sad. We pray for all the people who have been hurt by this monster storm.

[@oldsilver55]

called this island home for nearly 17 years - so very sad to think this is it for me and so many others🥵

[@juliaboose4414]

Paradise ...... lost.

[@stephaniechoward2757]

It's not lost. The heart of Sanibel still exists and they will rebuild and come back better than ever. I promise you that :)

[@KenKellySWFL]

Not lost, it’ll be back!

[@celinakersh2359]

We need those keeper houses rebuild the tower has its wooden leg 👍👍👍and will soon be bright again soon one power is restored

[@marysolomon2931]

[@celinakersh2359]
