Stones Throw:

"'Well, it's not far down to paradise.' At least it's not for Benny Sings after the Dutch musician releases his laid-back groove-heavy take on Christopher Cross’ #1 single “Sailing”. Oozing with understated funk, Benny’s version of “Sailing” shines a new light on one of the greatest songs of all time.

Benny Sings, who released his latest album “Young Hearts” on Stones Throw Records earlier this year, has collaborated with the likes of Mayer Hawthorne, Mac DeMarco, The Free Nationals and more is currently on a headline tour across the US and EU through to November.

“Sailing”, the 2nd single from Christopher Cross, catapulted his career to immediate success and is to this day considered one of the greatest soft-rock songs of all time. Upon it’s release in 1979, the “Sailing” hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and played a pivotal role in Cross’ being the first artist ever to win the “Big Four” Grammy Awards in a single year in 1980 (to be matched only by Billie Eilish and Adele).

Sings is not the first artist to take on “Sailing” with NSYNC releasing their cover alongside a performance at the 1999 Blockbuster Awards, and notable covers/samples by Puff Daddy, and R&B singer Avant."
