The history of the song🎧🎸🎤
"Sailing" is a ballad best known as "Rod Stewart's hit." It was actually written by Gavin Sutherland of the Scottish band Sutherland Brothers (1972).
Then this song rose to the 54th line. But Rod drew attention to the band only thanks to his roommate, who was delighted with their concert. Later, when Rod was looking for additional material for the album, he turned to the guys.
The track was recorded and released on an album in 1975. The song was also released as a single, although the musician was categorically against it, saying that there are other excellent compositions on the album. The variant of the Genus rose high in the charts of many countries. However, it was not successful in the USA and Canada, for this reason the composition was not performed at concerts in these countries. But one Canadian journalist wrote in his author's column, "I've already been to thirty Stewart concerts, but I still haven't heard Sailing. Surprisingly, Rod made changes after the article, and during a performance in Montreal, before performing the song, he even mentioned the journalist and his request.
Gavin (the author) said about the meaning of the work:
"Most people think that the song is about a guy who crosses the Atlantic to be with his girlfriend. In fact, the song has nothing to do with romance or ships. This is a story about humanity's spiritual odyssey through life on the path to freedom."
