"Blow Away" was a 1979 hit single by George Harrison, taken from his eponymous album. The song is one of Harrison's most popular and beloved post-Apple singles, but also one of the simplest. Its uptempo pop sound fell far outside of the dominant genres of the era, disco and punk. "Blow Away", written on a rainy day (that's why first verses are about clouds), was included in "Nuns on the Run" - a comedy with Eric Idle and Robbie Coltrane.
[edit] Chart position
The song reached #51 on UK charts and more impressive #16 in USA. Furthermore, on Adult Contemporary chart it reached #2.
