you people sound great I love the version that you're doing my brother Rick and I wrote that song with Stephen Stills back in the late seventies great feel and spot on harmonies keep up the good work
Holy Moly! Michael thanks for this comment. You wrote one of the great songs. What a thrill that must be for you! I'm so happy you approve of our rendition.
Seven league boots was the name of the original song. The melody and parts of the chorus and hook were repurposed by C, S, N and turned into the massive hit heard here.
Thank you and Rick for writing one of CS&N's biggest hits and I was just out of high school in the summer of '82 when it was released . Beautiful chord progression , beautiful harmonies , beautiful song !
After a band tops out, there's always that one towering masterpiece - Maybe I'm Amazed, Good Vibrations - that rises out of the ashes. Southern Cross is that song. It would be one of the best tracks on either CSN or Déjà Vu. I actually like these covers better than the originals because I hate the way Stills processed the vocals to make it so hard to hear the polyphony. It's hard to do a perfect cover but this is it. The guitar has all of the groove and the vocals are just sublime.
One of my favorite songs and yours is by far my favorite cover of it! The vocals, guitar playing, and the sweet dog were all mixed perfectly! Very good work!
Absolutely wonderful cover. Solid guitar work and the three vocals harmonized perfectly. The added bonus was the fourth bandmate- once can’t ask for better accompaniment then a friendly golden retriever wanting a piece of the action. Seriously, that was a superbly fantastic cover.
Fortunately, I'm a You Tube junkie. This time it started with a friend of mine doing a heart wrenching cover of Don't Let It Bring You Down. Neil right! I know - be patient. So of course ended up listening to an early Neil version. Well, growing up when all this stuff was brand new, never left the house without an 8 track under a seat or in the glovebox of the usual suspects - All the mutations of The Springfield, CSN, CSN&Y, all the solo projects, Burrito Brothers, Crazy Horse...you get the picture. Flash forward a decade and I find myself navigating the Atlantic and Caribbean. You have to pay attention on the water which only meant relaxing in port. I'm not sure how many watering holes I've enjoyed, but always had live music. And fitting with the territory, mixed with a plethora of Buffet songs, were guys and gals doing Southern Cross. Strong as death version guys! Y'all are the cream! First music of anything you have done. Guess I'll take another detour on this winding You Tube Road and listen to more of your stuff. And the adventure continues ....
Awesome acoustic version of the Crosby, Stills and Nash classic! Beautiful harmonies! Almost sounded as if I were sitting in the same room listening to this performance! The sound is amazing! Very well done! The pet dog appearing is a nice, touching addition!
Extremely exceptional!!! I loved it. Powerful voices. And anyone who has a Golden Retriever or Lab is automatically okay in my book! :) Keep rockin' on!
What's funny is this song was copied from the Curtis Bros. They wrote the song Seven League Boots. Same style, chords and wording. Oh, it was sung by Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. :)
Lovely! Your harmonies are spot-on, making the voices one, not separate. Kudos to you! I just wish my two goldens would help me keep the beat with their tails. The alpha just bumps into me and waits for me to scratch her back end with my finger picks! :-/ Oh, whell! Keep up the superb collaborations!

Oh good Michael...maybe now you can help me understand what: *.....but on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away* means? Thanks :)
Beautifully written. I have always loved this song.

FABULOUS !!!! One of the greatest songs to come out of the '70s. You guys KILLED IT!!
It was 1982

Damn! Wasn't expecting the harmonies to be like that! Great job!
As sounds go, this is as good as it gets.
Would like to have heard one more guitar but those harmonies are chilling. Bravo!
You can tell the quality of the musicians by the fact they are playing live. Blessings on you!

That sounds like an insult to me.

I certainly miss seeing you guys. Hopefully I will get out to see you soon. In the meantime, these videos are an excellent substitute.
Nice job. But I was waiting for the dog to chime in, too.
Sanford, I just came across your channel. I think I first heard you all sing this at the Unitarian Church in the 70s! Go Sanford, Roger and Lena!
Thank you. Very good.
Wow! Great! More please.
Woow...wonderful¡¡¡
I wish my family sang together.
Wow!
Lovely! Your harmonies are spot-on, making the voices one, not separate. Kudos to you!
