Christmas 2018, my son had joined the Army in March of that year, had not seen him, hardly heard from him, as they dont allow phones in BCT and most of AIT. He was in a car accident late November somewhere in Al, the police called and said he had been rushed to the hospital. He survived and I had saved almost a thousand dollars and sent it to him to buy a new automobile, Christmas Eve 2018 a knock on the front door, my son had driven 15 hours to get home, and this song was playing on my computer....
I‘m sure this will remain the most unforgettable Christmas Eve forever! What a heart touching story! May there be a lot more wonderful Christmas Eve‘s for you and your son to come!
Ohne dieses Lied von Chris Rea wären es Weihnachtslieder langweilig und sinnlos. Dieses Lied ist einfach undenkbar ohne Chris Rea. Das Video einmalig schön. Wo wären wir ohne Chris Rea? Schönes Lied und großartiger Musiker/ Liederschreiber/ Sänger.
Christmas 2023 and still listening to this wonderful song. Chris Rea is an extremely talented musician with around 25 albums. Christmas just wouldn't be Christmas without this song ! Merry Christmas everybody from the U.K.
My Job, Seattle City light came out with a memo to cancel the words Merry Christmas to any one at work. I played this song everyday in the lunch room in 2020 before I retired. Now, cancel that. Love this song. Also Donnie Hathaways Christmas song
One of the best songs ever, and my very favorite holiday tune. Chris Rea gave an interview of how it came about he wrote the song. An extraordinary talent. Just love this very early video.
Antoinette This is the loveliest christmas song. To Chris Rea who wrote as well as sings the song what can i say. It's got everything emotion, heartrendering, excited anticipation, Love, bliss. This is so beautiful and it will just never date. Chris you are amazing, thank you.
An amazingly beautiful song that just stopped me in my tracks as l was shopping at a thrift store. A classic in tone, sentiment, and feeling. Just wow!!!
In what mood Chris Rea was when he wrote this marvellous song. Christmas carols and other typical songs always make me feel sad. HOWEVER THIS SONG PUTS ME IN A CRAZY MOOD. What a hoarse voice and yet so soft and sentimental. Cheers Chris
Chris at the time was about to dropped by his record label and was running out of money. He couldn't even afford the train fare to get back home so his wife picked him up in very snowy conditions. He would wind the window down and shout Merry Christmas to drivers and write some lyrics on the way home. They eventually got home and his luck changed when he got a check from the PRS to say his royalties from Fool If You Think It's Over had come in.
One of my most favorite Christmas songs. I caught it three or four times on the car radio in 1992 when it came out. But this was before the era of the Internet while the home computer was still making its inroads. The radio station disc jockeys didn't say who the singer was and the name of the song. I had to wait many more years later to find out. Chris Rea is a British singer. He sings in good English grammar but he's using British idiom, different than American. "Top to toe in tailbacks" was confusing until I learned it meant in American English, "bumper-to-bumper in taillights."
Played at the Kate Spade New York outlet store at Miramar Outlet center I’ve never heard the song before so I stayed to listen to it and then dip spending $40
This song just Hit me as I used to drive Home for Christmas 🎄...hadn't heard it in yrs and instantly started bawling ....Chris this is amazing work and It touched my soul...love it
Definitivo es un canto y una melodia del alma para el alma de quien la escucha y aun mas, un canto que llega hasta el oido de Dios. Provoca una nostalgia que podría ser infinita Es una sintonia perfecta, no cansa escucharla N cantidad de veces. qué tendría en la cabeza este hombre para inspirarse así. 🥰 y su voz en ella incomparable nadie la podria cantar mejor. Bendito momento en que la logró. 💝
I will pick this song over any other christmas song. Chris Rea created a masterpiece with this song.There is something in his voice that sounds and feels hipnotic. Love you Chris!
Yes I don't hear it on the radio. It's a rare thing to hear this song on the radio around Christmas 🎄 I liked this song way back when I first heard it. It has really grown on me. I voted this a Classic many moons ago.🏆👍
Идеальный мужчина! Космическая атмосфера! Неземная песня!!! Я в восторге!!! Все годы - это лучшее, что я слушаю!!! Мне 55, и так хочется, чтобы Chris Rea оставался молодым!!!
Demais, parece que agente ta noutra dimensao, e' a voz, e' a melodia, e' a letra, e' a mensagem, sabe uma musica que voce escuta pela primeira vez, e o mundo para e voce esquece da vida, essa e' demais, para mim a mais linda de todas.
First time I heard this wonderful song, I think my hubby & I were driving a few hundred miles to my home town in the '80's. It brings so many memories of driving in the snow to spend Christmas, either there or earlier, when I was a kid, driving to our other close relatives to spend the holiday with them. Still absolutely love it from when I heard it so many years ago!
Спасибо Вам за этого рыжего ирландца! Я обожаю его! Так хотела на Рождество отправить этот ролик своему любимому, но ума не хватило как отправить видео внутри TH-cam. Счастья вам, дорогой, и неземной любви.
Я тоже обожаю его. Но знаете ли вы, что он наполовину итальянец? Неудивительно, что он такой потрясающий музыкант, когда он наполовину ирландец, наполовину итальянец! Желаю вам прекрасного Рождества и всех зимних праздников!
I just found this song while listening to "Working on it." What a great song! Easy to listen to, great lyrics, and brings a smile to my face. Thanks for the video.
