1. Break Away

   Break Away (also known as "Breakaway") is a song written by Benny Gallagher and Graham Lyle and first recorded by Art Garfunkel for his 1975 album Breakaway. Gallagher and Lyle released their own version on their 1976 album, also titled Breakaway. "Break Away", with backing vocals by David Crosby and Graham Nash, was the second single release from Garfunkel's album. The song peaked at number thirty-nine on the Billboard Hot 100 and, in February 1976, went to number one on the Easy Listening chart for one week. On the Canadian Adult Contemporary chart, "Break Away" reached number two. It was blocked from reaching the number-one position by Paul Simon's song, "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover". Gallagher and Lyle, the writers of the song, released their version of "Break Away" in late 1976, the title track of their Breakaway LP. It charted in the British Isles, reaching number 35 in the UK and number seven in Ireland.

1. Break Away

   "Break Away" is a song recorded by The Beach Boys in 1969. It was written by Brian Wilson and his father Murry Wilson, who is credited as lyricist under the pseudonym "Reggie Dunbar". The single was relatively unsuccessful compared to the groups releases, and charted at #63 in US Billboard. "Break Away" sold better abroad, reaching #6 on the United Kingdom charts. After the Smiley Smile sessions, Brian Wilson served as less of a band leader in the studio. Between Surfer Girl and the "Heroes and Villains" single, Brian was credited as producer; thereafter production credits were assigned to "The Beach Boys". "Break Away" was the last release on which he was named as producer until "Child of Winter" in 1974. "Break Away" features Carl Wilson singing verses and Al Jardine on the chorus; some have stated that Murry Wilson recorded the bass part of the song while Mike Love was away. Initially, the song was planned to be released with Brian Wilson singing the first verse, as included on the 2001 compilation, Hawthorne, CA. Early stereo studio mixes of this title provide verification, but these remixes are illicit.
