Why was this song not a worldwide smash hit ? - It's absolutely stunning - Why is this man not huge in North America ? He just exudes passion in his vocals and guitar work
@@obviousfakename5828 But he also never cared about the fame and the stardom. He is in it purely for the music. Had to compromise more than he liked already along the way.
I love every single, and there are a lot, of Chris Rhea.....It reminds me of my younger days and spending SOOOO much time on my friend's Yacht 🎉🎉🎉.....we played so much Chris Rhea!!!!!!!😊❤🎉
An often overlooked thing about Chris is that he could play every instrument on that live performance just about as well as each of the individual musicians. On the original studio recording of Water Sign (from which this is taken) he played most of the instruments.
Makes me proud that Chris Rea is half Irish. He is one of the best artists ever. I'm 50 now & I grew up with him. Can't remember how many times he lifted me up when I was down. His voice is really something and his guitar playing is out of this world. Love ya Chris mate, & thanks for your music man!
❤ Exceptionnelle cette version, de cette magnifique chanson Merci Lilybee !!! Sublime le final version ska reggae avec choristes. MERCI CHRIS REA & LE PIANISTE /SAXOPHONISTE MA-GNI-FIQUE !!!
If you haven't ever listened to Chris Rea you been missing out for many years!!!! His music the best, one song after another....I promise, he won't disappoint ❤❤❤❤❤
I loved your voice and music 25 years ago and you still summon up that strange period of my life when everything was so young and hopeful. You still sound so magnificent and still have all those crazy emotive notes that make us believe..keep on, Chris Rea, you are one of the few! We love you.
1983. It seems like yesterday! I modelled myself on Chris Rea. I thought him and Boz Scaggs were the coolest dudes on the planet, still do, age 59. Sorry if that comes across a bit Alan Partridge, but ...
Голос Криса - это что-то невероятное!.. но всегда с нетерпением жду момента, когда Он начнёт "отжигать" на гитаре. Вот это Высший Пилотаж!!! Браво и Спасибо!!!

Dearest Chris you should be awarded a medal for your amazing dedication to music and fans Bless you sweetheart beautiful music and so so well done my very best wishes to you and your family Dee👍👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎶🎶🎶🎶😍😍😍😍😍
This is beautiful. It's hard to believe that Chris Rea is so talented and has been around so long, yet has not made it bigger than he has. Why is junk so popular when there is great stuff like this available?
I performed same stage, as Chris Rea at famous music festival in 1988 “Rock Am Ring “ Nürburg Ring, Germany, so proud! I still have the poster w/ both our names.
A brilliant and beautiful Soul .. and an Artist beyond compare .. and tough as need be .. this is a celebration of such love .. a love he is blessed to know ..
I stumbled across chris rea panic in the late seventies he's talented with out a dout And then comes along all the big hair bands of 80s he's got a great voice and he can play guitar with the best of them with including Clapton I am glad to see he's still around you can bet if he comes to my turn from getting tickets
Adorable man.. still today 2024. 💗 Beautiful music, guitar work and lyrics. Amaze me Chris. ✨💯
The most underrated writer/singer ever

He had pancreatic cancer for like 20 years and didn’t tour in America at all. Shame because he’s the GOAT.
@@obviousfakename5828 But he also never cared about the fame and the stardom. He is in it purely for the music. Had to compromise more than he liked already along the way.
It was a big hit in Europe, to be fair.
I love every single, and there are a lot, of Chris Rhea.....It reminds me of my younger days and spending SOOOO much time on my friend's Yacht 🎉🎉🎉.....we played so much Chris Rhea!!!!!!!😊❤🎉
Life has not been all that kind to him. We are so lucky he is still with us. What a man...a monument!
If your listening to this you have a great taste in music.
I’m an Aussie and have always loved him. I still have this on cassette. Love his voice still.
Every so often I feel a need to return to this amazing singer and this amazing beautiful Song. Rock on,Chris!!!
Still think he is one of the very best guitartist of all times.
THE KING OF GOOD MUSIC...

Absolutely legendary song written by legendary author and musician!

@@stevefreary7449, Chris Rea’s father was Italian, and his mother was Irish....

Живи до 120, Крис. Ты заслуживаешь этого не только своей музыкой, но и тем, что даёшь людям свет и надежду.

Legendärer Song,- in der Fassung,- und ein brillanter Chris Rea auf seiner alten Stratocaster.
Klasse auch der Rythmusgitarrist.
It's beautiful - take the two 30 years apart - and the emotion is still there - I had not watched a young Chris before.
I stumbled across chris rea panic in the late seventies he's talented with out a dout
And then comes along all the big hair bands of 80s he's got a great voice and he can play guitar with the best of them with including Clapton I am glad to see he's still around you can bet if he comes to my turn from getting tickets
Absolute talent and class bluesman. Fantastico.
Great band, fantastic song
Great song and singing, and that vintage Red Strat speaks for itself
RS
Someone somewhere wrote in comments "this man is made of talent". I am just repeating that.
