    I don't recall Sailing being re-released then. At least it didn't make the top 40 if it was released again then.

    Sailing was re-released in 1982 when the Falklands war was happening.

    Ferry Aid was for the zebrugge disaster.

    Of course this could be cobblers.Millwall fans adapted the tune to fit 'Noone likes us,we don't care' too apparenlly:)

    Not half as insensitive as repeating the Monty Python episode with the Hungarian-English phrasebook in would have been around that time.
