"I would just like to thank the Divine Miss M for making sooooo many songs that touch our hearts. I was just told that one of my friends had died, and the first song that came into my mind was The Wind Beneath My Wings. She was always the best of friends and i couldn't ask for more. I just want to thank her again for being a great friend, and everyone has many!"

Beautiful and so emotive

"I love Bette Middler, her voice is out of this world, it is so powerful and strong and yet so gentle and the lyrics are heartfelt, some of us are lucky enough to have someone who is "their wind beneath their wings," and it is only when we loose them do we understand what a song like this is saying.The film "Wind Beneath my Wings" appears in is great too, who can forget Beaches, with its many memorable songs, this being the theme song, and though I know the song has been around for a lot longer than the film, it certainly epitomises the essence of love, friendship and loss.Sadly some people are very scathing about "Wind Beneath my Wings," not Amazon Critics as I can see but recently it was voted in the UK as "one of the most irritating songs" ever written which I thought was really far too harsh and unfair.Despite this damning poll it has my vote, and I will play it until the cows come home and enjoy every emotional minute of it!"

I love Wind Beneath My Wings!

"Wind beneath my wings makes me think of my older Sister. She has always been there for me and I don't know what I would do without her."
