Cross, 74, sounded pitch-perfect performing “Sailing,” which reached the No. 1 spot on the U.S. Hot 100 in 1979. Adult contemporary rock — also known as Yacht Rock — has seen a resurgence in recent years, thanks to Gen X nostalgia, social media influence, and the genre’s calm, uplifting tone that offers a gentle escape from modern-day stresses.
