David Gray - Sail Away (Greatest Hits Audio)

[@Rose-zy6vv]

This was my wedding song in 2003. My spouse passed away in 2006 and when I hear this song I picture his handsome face and smile. It brings me back and is painful but yet comforting. He had a rare cancer and passed at 32 years young. Today would have been my husbands 48th birthday and I thought I would listen to this song with our 16 year old son.

I like his music a lot but re:songwriting he's done a few covers...his version of Say hello and wave goodbye is the best version ever, I'm sure many can relate to the song, especially with his emotion put to it...

Beautiful; reminds me of Dad. When I was at my older sister's wedding this June and she did her father daughter dance with my dad, to a country song she chose, I thought to myself what would I choose? And I decided most likely David Grays Babylon because that song sticks out from my childhood with my father, but this is an amazing choice too. I just remember growing up listening to this man's unique voice and the way it made me feel so light and free. I also contemplated maybe Tracy Chapman's Fast Car.... I went to my first concert at Wolf Trap with my dad, we saw Tracy Chapman. We snuck in McDonald's cheeseburgers in our back pack. Ah, what a lovely time. I was about 10 or 11 years old. Thanks dad.

This is such a beautiful song. Listening to it takes me to bittersweet memories of both of my mom and dad who are no longer with me. I miss them both so much. Not a day goes by that I don't cry for them. They say that the pain goes away but it's a lie. It never does. My dad died early this year and I was not ready to let him go. God knows how hard I fight to keep him alive but in the end God had a better plan for him. It just hurts me soo much that I can't see him anymore. Tell him that I love him and give him daily hugs. My heart is so broken.

This shit honestly makes me break down every damn time I listen to it, the depth, the beauty, yet all the pain in this song is, just indescribably beautiful

[@Veronica705]

I remember chatting to David many many years ago when I was a teenager and he was busking in the streets of Galway.

[@DaniHMcV]

Absolutely beautiful song. I can listen to it over and over and never grow tired of it. Definitely one of my faves of all time.

[@iamgrace8140]

My favourite David Gray song of all time............So emotional

It's amazing just how much color that tamborine hit gives to the entire oldschool sound. Great number!

[@bernikeeni3654]

Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Crazy skies all wild above me now Winter howling at my face And everything I held so dear Disappeared without a trace Oh all the times I've tasted love Never knew quite what I had Little darling if you hear me now Never needed you so bad Spinning 'round inside my head Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now I've been talking drunken gibberish Falling in and out of bars Trying to get some explanation here For the way some people are How did it ever come so far? Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands It'd break me up if you pulled me down, whoa Sail away with me What will be will be I want to hold you now, now, now

[@gillianmooney4542]

Your writing of the song is magnificent, thank you, I really enjoyed it

[@daniheynes9071]

This was played at my uncle's funeral last month. Thank you for making incredible music that is sentimental and relatable to so many people.

[@maddogmurray1253]

When my mom got cancer for the first time I got home I was 21 I put this song on and will never forget it made me think wat was wrong with the world and I can cried, it had no relievers to my situation but on the other hand it ... my mom beat cancer gave birth to my little brother and has gone on to beat it 3 times she is only 56..........I would love to sail away with my mother all the way to paradise x

[@ethysight]

Loved David Gray's stuff straight away, 3 tracks that I especially adore. He's got a very unique voice with his lyrics thats so warm and comforting it just melts right into my soul

[@jeliomir]

July 2019 and going strong.. hope you are having a fabulous day!

[@honesthamish5334]

This is what Music should be! Lyrics that take your mind away or towards whatever emotion/memory your feeling needs to be explored! For me a man of 28 who lost his father when I was 11 and mother to cancer 2 days before my 21st... they both used this in there times of happiness and when feeling sad! I use it in the same manor to help with certain memories and emotions! David Gray will be in my life!

[@allisonsingsromance4167]

This is one of my favorite songs!! For me, it means to take your own journey and learn from it.

[@stormyyPC]

I'm 16 and I appreciate this music so much. I have heard it through my Dad and find it incredible. All my friends go off and listen to their modern music that I don't really like, however each to their own. This music is absolutely phenomenal and I love to listen to the older bands also like Pink Floyd. The closest modern artist have come to this greatness is through Ben Howard and Bon Iver. I recommend you to listen to a few of their songs each.

[@pepsifire7361]

I'm also 16 and hated his music when I was little. I will always have the question in my head to why I hated his music. My Mom always played this song during dinner and I'd say "turn it off, its terrible".But now I got over 40 of his songs on my IPod to listen to when I feel like calming down or relaxing. A true Legend he is.

[@stormyyPC]

+Garrett Annis Agreed. Always listening to it. Absolutely love his music. So different to the usual shit you get today

[@pepsifire7361]

+Stormyy yeah I got guys at school doing drugs and sagging pants playing their loud crap rap and I just really want to play David Gray for everybody at an assembly so they can hopefully convert to David's music.

[@stormyyPC]

+Garrett Annis it is a strange music choice for people our age. However I just let people get on with their own music. There must be something I'm missing with the whole rap stuff, not such a great fan of it personally.

[@garyheartofarts705]

+Stormyy you 2 me sound like one of the smartest 16 yr old around .I love floyd going 2check out Ben & Bon . yer Dad sounds pretty smart 2 We say no music no soul . wish u the best me

[@taranapolitano5358]

David grey reminds me of my brother Ricky he passed away recently and my heart is broken. He was the best brother ever. He loved David and took me to see him in CT. I never felt pain like this.

[@stephentowers9209]

Soz for your big loss, but at least you have the memory of him which is there forever

[@Walter_Nicolas]

Hello Pretty 💖

[@TheRealDarkpool]

2016 and I'm still listening to this. What a voice! Timeless. Evidently some people are fucking hard of hearing

[@cherrilainey]

Oi! you! I am hard of hearing and love this - just have to turn it up a lil :)

[@RussBarry]

Billy Rand same

[@kendrapiche3906]

i love the song can sing as well as him david grey

[@yeoldeavalon9696]

Another timeless vocal you may appreciate is that of a band called Ye Olde Avalon because the lead singer sounds remarkably close to David Gray. i hope you don't mind me telling you about them. enjoy.

@@maryann237 Hello how are you doing today..?

[@yeeboi6320]

Where have you been all these years

[@lisawegner3192]

I rarely post; as I do not use a moniker. My youtube profile is my name. One September I lost my job, I had to end a relationship of four years and my very old cat was consumed by coyotes. It was a life learning curve. I took an escape journey and ended up at Quadra Island. Riding down a tight road with wildlife - a bald eagle flew so close to me I could hear the wind of its wings - and making my path towards Kwagiulth Museum and Cultural Center, I settled by the waves. I had my little iPod. And I had my bike. And I had many tears. The repeat on my music was David Gray. It could have been anything else, but that particular music brought me solace. And most importantly, acceptance. Every expression of anything written could be a personal metaphor for those who read or listen to it. David Gray's music happened to work me through grief. It is only recently I have started listening to his voice and words again. And I will forever be grateful. And I will always remember the waves on the rocks at that special place.

[@benmcmanus4154]

Thank you for sharing your story, Lisa. :) I hope life is better now!

[@lisawegner3192]

+Christopher28fair I realized later that he was ready to leave on his terms. His health was suffering and it looks as though nature spared me the agony of having to make the decision of when to have him put down. He had a good life; a shelter cat that no one looked at for years. It was love at first sight. :-)

[@lisawegner3192]

+Benjamin McManus Thank you. Although a very challenging time, it turned out to be serendipitous. I truly believe 'everything is for a reason'.
