The third studio album by American singer-songwriter Randy Newman, Sail Away released in 1972. The album is known for its satirical and ironic lyrics that explore themes of American culture, racism, and imperialism, set against a backdrop of lush orchestration and Newman's distinctive piano playing. The title track, "Sail Away," is a tongue-in-cheek anthem inviting people from around the world to come to America and enjoy the "good life," despite the country's history of slavery and oppression. Other standout tracks include "Political Science," which imagines a world where America drops atomic bombs on other countries to solve its problems, and "You Can Leave Your Hat On," a seductive and playful song about love and desire. Overall, "Sail Away" is a masterful album that showcases Newman's wit, intelligence, and musical talent.
