Those who know music, they will know to appreciate him. Some more, some less, some for the emotion, some for the phenomenon. Others though?? They do not matter.
I grew up listening to David Gray. He was my mums favourite artist . She took her own life when I was 15 and I chose this song to be played at her funeral. I couldn’t listen to it for at least 5 years after that. Since then I’ve been to see him live and have tickets to see him again this year. This song will forever hold the most meaning to me out of any song ever written ❤️ -update …. I went to the concert this week. It was amazing and filled with lots of emotion but also a lot of smiles and memories. Thank you all for your kind comments, they have been heartwarming ❤️
Music is such a powerful emotion - treasure the memory... my mother died in 2020 at the height of the first lockdown, I was unable to be with her, but I will always remember the music she wanted at her funeral...
I was at the concert with my boyfriend of 10 years. He died 4 years ago. I’ll always remember as we drove away from the Apollo we had this playing in the car full volume and everyone on the street walking back to the tube starting singing. Those were the days….
Wow, RUclips has some crazy comments, these tragic stories. So sorry. My late mother loved his music as did I. All my family died before I was 40. I’m 41 now. Just browsing with some wine. The Queens death got me thinking of loved ones. The pain never eases but time lessens it slightly. All the best to you! ✌🏻🏴
My mate listened to white ladder and came running around to my house to drop the cd off. He said it was music that would change my life, im still loving it.
We have seen you in our home state of Minnesota 3 times. Our 4th time was at Red Rocks in Colorado a month ago David. All of your performances feed our souls, and Red Rocks was an especially magical setting to witness your gifts and be lifted to a higher place. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your music. Brian and Carol Smith.
Im recently divorced , going through a tough time in life. I seriously listen to this song while tears are running down my face. Anyway i just want to say for me this song hits me like a wall and so many feelings arise when i hear it.. :(
@@izaiahparry899 I went through a terrible divorce, my son was just 10 months old during that time. I am happy to say I am doing good. I'm happy, I stayed Strong and got through the hard times! My advice for anyone going through a divorce or hard time - Stay strong be brave you will overcome! Thanks for asking how I was/doing. Much appreciated man.
@@pointvillage16 So happy you found comfort in music...it's where I go no matter what frame of mind I'm in..This particular song "gets you right there". I hope you've found your hearts desire & that your son has grown strong & true...sending loving thoughts from Australia xoxo
DAVID is a fantastic songwriter.He sings from his soul and it all comes shining out in that beautiful poignant voice...Listening to White Ladder me and my fiancee took our yacht around the Greek Islands.....great memories of David's musical genius.
I wonder, do these singers know that the lyrics they wrote can mean so much to people and can connect so deeply to people in 'that' moment ?? The original spaceboy would like to thank you for conveying the way I felt about somebody back in the 1990's
Took my daughter to this concert one of the best I’ve ever been too and her first what a magical time we had dative grey is an outstanding artist and no one will ever be the same talk about taking a chance in life this guy was so good Evan the big record company’s didn’t want to know him ,,!!!!!!! Big mistake.. I’m with you all the way . Sometimes in life you have to take a chance !,,,,, this guy is living proof.
An outstandingly fabulous song---- sung with much ARTISTRY and PROFOUND FEELING by the always BRILLIANT MUSICIAN and VOCALIST, David Grey . LOVE ❤️ Evelyn O'Connor
.just come here to listen to this , my son and his girlfriend just mentioned this tune it was on in there car. My son said it reminded him of when he was younger and I used to play it in my car with my boys in the back. Wow was it that long ago. There grown men now❤❤❤
Of all the times I’ve tasted love. When you’re older and miss EVEN those. The people that weren’t amazing but pretty close. Cuz now there’s nothing close at all? B/c you’re so done inside and it seems like the “before” was all a dream almost. To whatever it is you’re alive for here so alone? The before rawness like this one …this guy.. “This one” my grandma would say pointing to the TV or someone in room before else died - or to a picture. A good one. That one. Thanks David Gray
Thank You Davidd Gray for this beautiful meaningful track. JTime is 518am and you have given me the will once again to sing along to the track and I felt a calm within me all over again.. I wonder if you will help heal ny mind and body after a hellish 4 weeks in a place I detest and wrongly placed. Long love Music!❤
My mum loved David Gary. Reminds me or when I saw a kid. And now I understand why she felt the lyrics so much, it was perfect for the messy shit that was going on in our family
I'm a 110 year old leper who's wife was hit by a bus while singing this song. Every time I hear it it reminds me of the time I saw David gray live in 2005
I just lost my ex gf of 14 years this week. David Gray was her favorite. His music so sad yet so beautiful, and so very true. I'll miss you my Baba. I wish we could of sailed away...
Chris your welcome. Remember that sorrow is a journey, not a destination. We don't get " over" anything but rather learn to move on. Life is never really the same. Take time to feel this BUT find joy along the way. Many blessings!!
Hang in there Brother! You will make it through this difficult time. I've been there many times. You never stop loving someone you just learn to live without them.❤
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 Source: LyricFind Songwriters: David (gb2) Gray
An absolute Masterpiece. I’m seeing him in 3 weeks in Melbourne playing the White Ladder album in it’s entirety plus the rest of his more popular songs from other albums. Can’t wait.
He told us at a live performance in Newcastle about 13 yrs ago his grandad was a fellow geordie, I think he said from Shields. Beautiful artist. Beautiful soul ❤️
A massively, MASSIVELY underrated artist
There is no such thing really.
@@JohnSmith-hm5pk There is no such thing as what ? An underrated artist ?

Lyrically top 10 ever
Absolutely beautiful. Cried many of times to this song

My ex was there that night and we got back together for 8 more years. Still broke up but I miss him every single day. David was our tunes.
A master class of song writing
Simply a masterpiece of live performance …
I will always love his music.It touches my soul so deeply. Always.
Maybe three chords into it, it automatically went into my library. Absolutely awesome song!
I am 60 years old and probably seen most of the so called best bands haha 😄 he is outstanding Bravo 👏.
What a voice….Haunting yet so Beautiful
I can’t believe I saw him 20 years ago 😳 listening to this again is just pure joy.

100%
Oh the memories that come flooding back 😢what a voice, totally unmatched and massively underrated 👌🏻
Haven't been here forever! You just made my day!!!!
The greatest songs always have an overwhelming combination of joy and melancholy. And "Sail Away" has almost too much of both to bear. A masterpiece.
Help me out...what's the j0y part?

I wanted this to be our wedding song!! But you overruled me for Lonestar!! Still love you 22 years later. ❤

Simply magical.
Raw and natural, he's on my bucket list concert.

Couldn't stand David Gray when i was a teenager. As a battle weary 36 year old i appreciate him ao much more.
What a talented Guy David Gray is..
. Love it!!! ❤❤❤😊
I don't know how this is possible...it sounds even better live😮❤
It's not even close. One of the top singer-songwriters of the last 20 years! White Ladder is insane!
This song just takes me straight to a happy place. Absolute timeless classic!
Of all the times I’ve tasted love.
When you’re older and miss EVEN those. The people that weren’t amazing but pretty close. Cuz now there’s nothing close at all?
B/c you’re so done inside and it seems like the “before” was all a dream almost. To whatever it is you’re alive for here so alone?
The before rawness like this one …this guy..
“This one” my grandma would say pointing to the TV or someone in room before else died - or to a picture. A good one. That one.
Thanks David Gray
Fuck yeah...been loving this song and dude for a long time

Nice reply Bill & true.
Love this song Amazing 👏
Outstanding singer
wow its like yesterday this song came out love it to bits
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
