  • The song "Wind Beneath My Wings" was originally written in 1982 by Jeff Silbar and Larry Henley. Singer Roger Whittaker recorded the first official release of the song, followed over the years by Sheena Easton, Lee Greenwood, Colleen Hewett, Lou Rawls, Gladys Knight & the Pips & Gary Morris. However the most well known and highest charting version by far was recorded by Bette Midler for the 1988 film "Beaches."
    Soundtrack from the 1988 Garry Marshall film "Beaches" with Bette Midler, Barbara Hershey, John Heard, Spalding Gray, Lainie Kazan, Grace Johnston, Mayim Bialik & Marcie Leeds. --- HD Film Tributes is a channel with over three hundred movie homages currently posted.

    I dedicate this song to my wife who passed away in 2007 at the age of 71. She was the best wife and mother in the world. She an exemplary mother to our 4 children. All of them all are religious, excellent with good college educations , employed in highly skilled professions and great parents as well

      Me either…right before we were heading to see Bette in concert, my sister dedicated this to me and when I heard it at the concert it was so much more meaningful and made me emotional. I always let my sister shine and just dealt with all the attention she would get cause of her looks…I would step back and let her have her moments without complaint and then she tells me that meaning she noticed all of what I’m saying, man my heart ached and was blessed at the same time.

    My daughter Taryn, when she was 17, sung this song in her final year at high school in 1994 in RSA. It brought tears to my eyes as she sang it even more beautifully than Bette Midler. She went on to sing for a amateur music group in and around Pietermaritzburg for a few years before emigrating to New Zealand. Sadly she never did it professionally, as I'm sure she would have gone far. We miss her so much as we will only ever see her again in years to come if we live that long. I told her I want her to sing this at my funeral.

Dad had dropped by unexpectedly, when Mum was already here. They were divorced when I was so young that I have no memory of ever seeing them together, and MAN that was just trippy to see them in the same room at the same time.

    I dedicate this song to my Australian pen friend, Cheree. 31years ago… two 13-year old girls found each through the magic of writing letters. Last week she and family came to Singapore to meet me and family and she had a surreal moment when I showed her the first letter that she wrote to me. We went through the boxes of letters that we kept till today.

    This song was sung a few years ago for the 9/11 memorial service by Bette Midler. I cried when I saw Beaches I cried at the memorial service and every time I hear it is so touching and heartfelt. It’s my favorite movie song and I will carry it in my heart always. ❤️

      Sad that this song was sung (used) for a ritual false flag to bring in the "New World Order" the second FF of the 21st century is this Plandemic.
      Hospitals are empty, numbers are flubbed just like the election and I don't vote.
      They murdered thousands of people that day, also those that worked in the debris died young from lung issues, cancer etc, and they blamed the three buildings falling; on another invisible boogie man. 🤔

    I am 55. My mom.passed last year . She was 91. Her best friend just lived three houses up. Her name is Diana. She is in her final days. . My long time friend ( Diana's) daughter moved back after 30 years to take care of her mom and her dad. He just had surgery on both kidneys due to cancer. He is ok. My friend had three German Sheppards. One female and two male. She was the mom of the two. Mom had to be laid to rest from cancer. This was one week ago. So the two male dogs are distraught and confused. They act like... where is mom. ..My friends mom ( as above) will be passing before Thanksgiving. With this all said, this is the perfect song for my friend Caryn. 😢..so sorry for your losses. I will always be by your side, my friend. We have known each other since we were 7 and 6 years old. I love you. I always will unconditional. RIP.

    I remember the first time I watched the movie "Beaches" and this song was sung. I still cry when I watch clips of this movie. It was a very touching story of friendship between two women and the challenges they had to overcome throughout the years. The ending was particularly touching when Bette Midler was named as guardian of Barbara Hershey's daughter in the movie. I real tear jerker!

    This was one my Mom’s favorite songs. She passed away from a heart attack July 6th, 2017. After she passed my sister and I made ourselves go get some food. Pulled into a restaurant parking lot and this song came on the radio. I started crying so hard , but it was like she was telling my sister and I that she was okay and at peace. So to this day , I can’t listen to this without crying. I miss Mom so much, but it gives me comfort that she is at peace and is happy And she is reunited with my Dad again. ♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏
