Yes. He is spot on when he says that interviews are about show business not music. Most of these interviewers know nothing at all about music. In the UK, there has not been a series on TV with a focus on actual music for many decades. Individual artistes or people - but, like Chris says, it's lifestyle not the music itself.
he is a true Rockstar, Musician like him are sending from heaven, its such a gift for all of us BTW: he wrote also the coolest christmas Song on Planet
So sad he is an endangered species,wish i could turn the clock back 20 years for him as i worry for his health.One of a kind......thank you Chris for enriching my life with your music and above all your humility.
I find nothing more about him after his fall onstage in 2017. Do u know if it was another stroke? Loss of balance? Did he have to stop performing after that? I so love his work, and he's such a charismatic individual.
His song Fool(if you think its over) 1970 was edged by Billy Joel's I Love You Just The Way You Are 1975, in the Grammy's. I cant believe it. But we know what the Grammys are all about.
Кристофер ну ты как всегда на высоте, с твоей широкой душой, с твоим огромным сердцем, с твоим божественным голосом глядя на тебя хочется слушать и слушать ВЕЛИКОГО КРИСТОФЕРА, и радоватся, что живу на одной планете с тобой.👍👍👍💞💋
what a genuine guy, great interview,like to see more of chris today, know he has been through alot health wise the past few years, wish he would tour in Canada and the US, one of the most under rated musicians all the best chris JR
He does't want to be a rock star he just wants people to appreciate his brilliant music, sounds fair enough, iv'e got fool if you think it's over on 7" vinyl and followed him ever since.
Such a humble, sweet and unaffected musician...much like the wonderful Kate Bush. This sweet humbleness only makes them more adorable! But goodness, those two giggling fools on the couch...shame...poor Chris looked embarrassed! He was far more mature & composed than the two of them put together.
Chris has no pancreas, so he has to eat between 30-40 pills a day and take 2-3 injections. But he is managing his condition very well, and is completely healthy.
besides being a brilliant singer/songwriter & musician Chris is so down to earth....thank you for this interview, there are so few of them....does anyone know how his health is today?....I wish I could see him in concert but know that will never happen in the US...
Да, только можно сожалеть, что в то время нам недоступно было слушать музыку этого гения. Зато теперь я наслаждаюсь. Благо Дарю Тебя Бог, что ты создал такое чудо. Жаль, что такие люди умирают.

@@chunkie412 There's two other great musicians who also hail from Middlesborough. One is ex- 'Free' and 'Bad Company' frontman Paul Rodgers (who also fronted 'Queen' for a few years) and 'Whitesnake' main man David Coverdale. As well as Chris Rea himself, I love the great, timeless music from all of those other acts, too. There may well be many other bands or solo artists from Middlesborough that I'm not even aware of. Perhaps some of you could enlighten me?
He is a thinker. The thing is, intelligent, reflective people like Chris know that there is so much more to know and to understand - they see themselves as one ordinary guy in a massive universe. He is anything but ordinary! He will keep creating till the day he dies. A musician not a rock star.
I agree 100%. Judy Finnegan looks sizzlingly hot here in her tight fitting designer skirt suit. I love the way she keeps crossing her shapely stockinged legs and stroking her thighs. VERY, VERY sexy!!!!!
@@stephenalanmoore7278 Yes I do know my geography, as I was saying , Middlesbrough was in Yorkshire before they made it Teeside, Hull was East Yorkshire, before Humberside Liverpool was Lancashire before Merseyside. North Yorkshire is the north east by the way. Hope I’ve educated you now.
КРИС ВЕЗДЕ ПРИВОСХОДНЫЙ, НЕ ТОЛЬКО В ПЕНИЬИ,НО И В БЕСЕДЕ. ЖАЛЬ ,ЧТО НЕЗНАЮ ЯЗЫКА НА КОТ. ОНИ ГОВ. НО Я ЛЮБУЮСЬ ИМ ПОПРЕЖНЕМУ. ВАМ ВСЕМ УСПЕХА И ЗДОРОЧБЯ .
Да, очень жаль, что не понимаем без перевода. И какой враг человечества придумал столько языков?! Вот ведь все кошки говорят "Мяу", все собачки "Гав" и только люди не понимают друг друга! 🤔
So maybe someone could help me to find an old Chris interview (I think it was around 1993 in Germany) where at the end of the video the woman who was making the questions (If I remember correctly), ended up given him a hug. I saw that video like the past year but I can't find it again here on TH-cam...
This man is what I call the definition of cool ness❤😊
He made the important distinction between 'creative musicality' and 'showbiz'.

Omg...I love him even more after seeing this...
THIS IS ONE MAN WHO HAS PROVED BEYOND DOUBT THAT " ITS NICE TO BE IMPORTANT BUT IT'S MORE IMPORTANT TO BE NICE " - GREAT MUSIC GREAT PERSONALITY !!!
he is a true Rockstar, Musician like him are sending from heaven, its such a gift for all of us BTW: he wrote also the coolest christmas Song on Planet
Well said adams!
In a world where many Rock stars are so full of themselves... What a class act!
Yes !!! So true x
I agree with all of you🤩🤩🤩🤩
Chris is the ordinary mans man, no bull, no hype, no pretentiousness, just Chris and his music, what’s not to like.
Chris Rea YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. 💯 A true, genuine, sincere, talented musician and songwriter. ❤❤❤God bless you!
What a beautiful person love you Chris so talented beautiful voice
My Daughter is called Rhia, he was a massive influence in the 80s a part of my childhood/teenage years,
Thankyou Chris 🙂💙🏴
The Guitar, the Voice, the Man.
So sad he is an endangered species,wish i could turn the clock back 20 years for him as i worry for his health.One of a kind......thank you Chris for enriching my life with your music and above all your humility.
Nagyon szeretem a munkásságát, ő a legjobb ebben a műfajban, bravó, jó egészséget kívánok neki.
I worked with Chris years ago. Lovely man x
I find nothing more about him after his fall onstage in 2017. Do u know if it was another stroke? Loss of balance? Did he have to stop performing after that? I so love his work, and he's such a charismatic individual.
Мой любимый певец это Крис
Fine guy and thanks for the beautifull song ' Josephine '.
A rare interview with a music legend.
Great respect for his dislike of showbusiness
I wish I could meet him in person. Beautiful soul.
same here.
AN AMAZING VERY TALENTED BEAUTIFUL MAN ❤❤
unique and sensual voice... A genius!
Nearly unknown in the US, I discovered his best of work and just fell in love.
What a sweet, humble man.
I only have 33 of his albums...😍😍😍
His song Fool(if you think its over) 1970 was edged by Billy Joel's I Love You Just The Way You Are 1975, in the Grammy's. I cant believe it. But we know what the Grammys are all about.
Could listen to Chris's voice all day talking or singing ❤
The man is incredible! Thanks for the 🎵 music !!!
My all time favourite singer/musician of all time !! What a voice and talent . Love every one of his songs

A Real artist. Love his music, and him as a person. He constantly creates..
Крис, дорогой! Спасибо тебе за музыку, за твой чудесный голос! Живи долго и радуй нас твоим творчеством! Очень люблю твои песни! ! !
Okey 🤔😉
Да ты потрясающий певец ! Очень жаль что я́ никогда тебя не услышу в живую.
Excellent musician and his sultry vocals are incredible. I remember his first song on the pop charts when I lived in the Yakima valley in Washington.
Kermitefrog64, I am from the Tri-Cities myself. Been listening to Chris for 30+ years. He has a resemblance to my Mother's second husband.
what a genuine guy, great interview,like to see more of chris today, know he has been through alot health wise the past few years, wish he would tour in Canada and the US, one of the most under rated musicians all the best chris JR

It's a miracle he's still alive actually. Great guy. How was this recorded btw ? Good quality so It looks to be Betamax
Wow 😊❤

I often wonder if he (Chris) realizes how intelligent, & deep he is. I'd love to spend a day with him bouncing writing material back & forth.

A musician not a rock star.
Обоятельный человек..с широкой большой душой.Такая доброта на его лице.❤Обояние
No 1 always ❤
Richard and her 🤷♂️this guy is a musically beautiful human being and my most favourite song writer 😎
He talks sounding somewhat like Tom Jones. He has so many complexities to his sensitive personality.
Was at that race in Donington Park with 2 of my sons. 👍
Çoook seviyorum ben bu adamı. Chris Rea i love u so much.
Pure talented guy..and she is good interviwer..me just trying to get the most profund view of her..
I agree 100%. Judy Finnegan looks sizzlingly hot here in her tight fitting designer skirt suit. I love the way she keeps crossing her shapely stockinged legs and stroking her thighs. VERY, VERY sexy!!!!!

Chris Rea is actually from Middlesborough in the North East of England.

Un grand musicien
Great interview, wonder about the film?
He sings like Tom Waits. I like that one song he had, "Fool if you think it's over". So much more to him than that.
🌸💜💫👏👏
Wow this is while ago...Richard and Julia back in time I wander if it’s in the 1990ss
Starving Men On A Desert Island 🤣
Voce e lindo. Brasil

Great to see genuine Richard and Judy too before fakes came along. I dont mean Eamon and Ruth, theyre not fake.
В унисоне со Вселенной//
Never missa chat ❤
legend
Мне непонятно почему хотят приписать Криса ри то Итальянцам то Югославам хотя он является чистым представителем Английской культуры.
he threw his interviewers off balance with his non conventional lifestyle didnt he?
Definitely
❤️💖❤️
You should sing some of Leonard Chohan songs!!
No one else noticing the E30 M3 model car?
2:00 "The photographers tried to make you look younger".
No need for that. Dude's a bluesman. It's not like he was supposed to be Peter Andre.
To our Brit friends .... is Chris' accent a normal one for North Yorkshire? Sounds almost Scottish or Irish to an untrained ear.
He’s from Teeside, Middlesbrough to be precise which has a geordie accent.
A native of Newcastle - Upon - Tyne told me that Geordies come from the north bank/City side of the River Tyne. Chris is a Teessider.
Luv ya Chris I'm I
Not gay
