"Sails Away" by Dan Holcomb is a heavy Southern rock ballad that is also very personal. The song starts out with just an acoustic guitar and then adds more instruments to fit the roughness of the subject. The song talks about addiction in a way that tells a true story. Holcomb's voice is very determined, which makes us feel the pain and helplessness in the story. "Sails Away" is a strong, human record that sticks with you long after the last note has faded.
