CARRIED AWAY
As Newton-John and Andy Gibb’s recording of “I Can’t Help It” climbed to number twelve in the spring of 1980, Barry Gibb completed his work on Guilty. The album featured three of his writing collaborations with Galuten, including “What Kind of Fool”, “Never Give Up”, and “Make It Like a Memory”. The team also offered Streisand a breezy ballad called “Carried Away”. “When we wrote those songs, it was not Streisand’s style,” notes Galuten. “It was Barry being stimulated by what he thought would be interesting and fun to do with her.”
Though Streisand passed on “Carried Away” , Newton-John recorded the song for her first full-length set of the 1980s — Physical.
“She got a hold of it somehow,” Farrar chuckles. “I think maybe Barry gave it to her. He’s always been a hero of mine from way back when the Bee Gees first started, and I was in Australia. I met him a few times over the years, and he’s just the sweetest guy.”
Newton-John had also known the Bee Gees from years earlier, having previously scored a Top Five country hit in 1976 with her version of the trio’s “Come on Over”.
Retaining the integrity of Gibb’s original demo, “Carried Away” glistened with Newton-John’s radiant interpretation. “It was an homage,” says Galuten. “I think John’s a brilliant producer. I have a tremendous amount of respect for him. The thing with ‘Carried Away’ is that it seems so straight ahead. It’s not your average time signature, but it doesn’t seem so unusual because the melody leads you there.
It’s not like you have to count. It seems totally natural.”
Indeed, Newton-John rendered the song with a beguiling ease that belied the song’s rather unconventional structure.
“Carried Away” was one of several songs on Physical that hailed from outside projects. In between scoring songs for Xanadu, Farrar had also begun writing and recording his solo debut for Columbia, John Farrar (1980).....
Carried Away — “Barry Gibb is one of my favorite songwriters and producers of all time. He and John Farrar are both humble and incredibly talented musicians … and both Aussies!!
Barry has a way of writing a song that is always different and unexpected. His catchy melodies and soaring key changes can take my breath away. And the syncopation of his lyrics to his melodies is so distinguishable, you know it’s a Barry Gibb song right away. Like ‘Carried Away’, which has this magical feeling.”
