Freedom55 Posted April 17, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2014 If you could hear any song playing while you are sailing away what would it be? My vote is "Sailing" by Christopher Cross. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkjretired Posted April 18, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Celebrity used to play a song everytime you left a port, it was an instrumental that the band at the pool played and was really a beautiful song. I can't think of the name of it but I'm sure someone will come up with it. I think they stopped playing it around the turn of the century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richsea Posted April 18, 2014 #12 Share Posted April 18, 2014 There are 2 songs that I recall Celebrity playing at sail away in the 90s. One was "Simply the Best" by Tina Turner, which was also their theme song in their commercials in the 90s. The other was "Conquest of Paradise" by Vangelis, from the movie"1492" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NLCAPER Posted April 18, 2014 #17 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I hear "Booze Cruise" from Black Jack Billy every time we pull out of port. And trust me we are not heavy drinkers, but I love Patron margaritas on the rocks and there is a line about "hillbilly margaritas" makes me smile thinking about it now.

Rare Texed Posted April 18, 2014 #25 Share Posted April 18, 2014 When I cruised Alaska many years ago with Crystal, they played "North To Alaska" every time we left a port on the trip. It was pretty cool! Off Topic! The song was by Johnny Horton. He also sang "Battle of New Orleans" and quite a few other songs with historical backgrounds. He was killed in a car wreck in Texas in the middle of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
