Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Christopher Cross - Swept Away (Official Music Video)
Christopher Cross took the week off from uploading, and the song carrying his channel is one many people heard first on a sitcom. "Swept Away" was written for Growing Pains and featured in the show's season 3 premiere, and it earned Cross an Emmy nomination. Its official video went up about a hundred days ago and is now past 140,000 views.
The video does not lean on vintage clips from the show. The description credits Super 8 footage by Summer LaBelle and Kasey Harrison and names four couples who appear in it, so a song from a family comedy is now illustrated with grainy home-movie romance.
Behind it sits a club version of an older hit. Dave Lee, the producer long known as Joey Negro, made an extended disco mix of "Ride Like The Wind." The description says it used to stream only outside the United States because of licensing and is now available everywhere. The third video drawing steady views is "Think Of Laura" with Tagalog subtitles, a sign that this channel also has listeners in the Philippines.
The channel added about a thousand subscribers over the week and sits at roughly 486,000. Among the singer-songwriter channels close to it in size, The Hound + The Fox and Stan Walker drew the most views over the same stretch.
