This is pure genious. Have always liked it from the first time hearing it back in 86'. It stands out for me apart from much of his other work. Very smooth and diverse instrumentation he uses in this. The lyrics also good. Good message of the need to cherish past memories of your life but to continue to move on or as he puts it 'sail on'.

Hi Uriel. The expression is 'Don't get me wrong'. (I'm an English teacher)

Don't give me wrong, but I think the piano at 5:27 could have built a bit more up; it had a wonderful constructive background of beats and stuff and the piano player just took it for granted.. I do still love this song though. Big time!
