"Gi'me Wings" comes off Foolish Behaviour, Rod Stewart's tenth studio album, which landed on 21 November 1980 through Riva in Britain and Warner Bros. in America, and it went out as one of the record's singles. Stewart shares the writing with four others: Phil Chen, Jim Cregan, Gary Grainger and Kevin Savigar.

He produced it himself, too, with Cregan and Andy Johns as co-producers and Karat Faye engineering. The album was cut in Los Angeles between February and September 1980 at two studios, the Record Plant and Cherokee Studios, and the credits show a singer running his own show from the control room.
