Inspired to write this after getting stuck in a traffic jam for several hours on the M25 outside London, I’m so glad you covered the whole song including the beautiful bluesy opening. Gotta say guys I’ve watched tons of your reactions and this for me is your best! If you wanna carry on down the Chris Rea rabbit hole then I’d highly recommend Looking for a Rainbow. Or being Americans the track Texas might hit the right note. For the record Mr Rea is the best slide guitarist I’ve seen live. He was simply amazing.

Chris is probably one of the most genuine understated singer/songwriters Britain has ever known . . Chris always wanted to be a rock star but never ever saw himself as one and always thought he had a terrible voice and through the last few years has genuinely gone through hell with regards his health and in this modern day is almost unrecognisable from his days of the 1980’s when “Road To Hell” was first penned. But for sure your a pop star in my eyes Chris god bless you and all the best to you for the future my friend.

Chris Rea recorded a series of wonderful albums, some great songs on them. "On the Beach", "The Road to Hell", "Auberge", "God's Great Banana Skin", "The Blue Cafe" are just a few albums well worth looking into. His unique vocals also added another dimension to his music.

I went to the "Road To Hell" tour concert in 1989 in Helsinki, Finland. Still probably the best ever concert I ever went to and there have been many. If I remember correctly, he played and sang for over 3 hours. Still makes my skin go goosebumps! Best regards to Chris from Finland! 💖🇫🇮 And thank you for this great video!

I had semi-forgotten this song, which meant so much to me at one time. It all comes back now - great song, great reaction! Wonderful ballad about Hell in LA, Chris Rea!

I always get "film noire" images when I listen to Chris Rea. Dark, rainy city street with a cigarette butt floating down the gutter. Taste of cheap whiskey at the back of my throat. Now that you've heard Chris Rea, it's time for you to check out Leonard Cohen, the original composer of "Hallelujah". Listen to "Berlin", "Bird On a Wire", or "Dance Me To the End of Love" are great places to start this deep rabbit-hole.

My favourite Chris Rea album is "Dancing With Strangers" - every track is top notch (no filler unlike most of his studio albums) and even the deluxe edition released a while back had some pretty good bonus tracks. Chris Rea's slide guitar playing is the real star here - you might want to check out the sequel to this as well, predictably titled "The Road To Hell Pt. 2".

@keithjones7390 Год назад

Dancing With Strangers has been my favourite Chris Rea album for years, as you say every track a winner. Windy Town, Curse of the Traveller and I Can't Dance to That a few l love from the album.

This man is a legend! It still baffles me he wasn't a much huger success here in the US! You need to react to "Texas" next!

100% I bloody love Texas, funny and brilliant

A huge ecological message, the terrible things money can do to the Planet, for 86. One of my siblings, truck driver, brought this tape to home because he wanted me to tell him the story in the lyrics; we are from Spain. He said "now I liked even more". Another ones to check could be : - On The Beach: It was such a hit in the times of Café del Mar (the sunsets in Ibiza) and those chillout musics (for the dawns after the party). - Driving Home For Christmas (nice even if you don't like Xmas) - Fool If You Think It's Over (sooooooo nice) - Josephine (another good one)

@emmahowells8334 Год назад

This is a fave of mine, the bluesy guitar is awesome aswell as a song called On The Beach, which is a great summer chill song. I have his greatest hits album. 😎👌

@clifflangford7610 Год назад

Hi y'all, great reaction to a great song. One bluesy story telling must for Female Friday is Melody Gardot's The Preacherman

Chris was inspired to write this whilst stuck in a traffic jam one morning on the M25 (for Americans, this is the motorway that circles Greater London). He was watching all the other people in the jam realising they were all on their way to work, probably in London. It really was a journey to hell, but the money was good and hence gave people a better materialistic lifestyle. I know this because I lived that life. I have a comfortable life now I’m retired but I sometimes look back and wonder if the time I missed with my family working 18 hours every day was actually worth it. Do yourselves a favour and try to listen to Tell me there’s a Heaven, but I warn you it will bring you to tears. For those who don’t know Chris has been in poor health for a number of years now and has miraculously survived many illnesses that would have finished off most of us…..

You know Amber is into the music when her eyes close, her head tilts back, and she starts rocking. It took no time for Chris Rea to draw her into his musical spell.

I'd never heard of this guy until I was working in a record store in the late 80s, we got this promo album in. When we played it in the store, you just couldn't ignore this song, it was so strong. Plus, it sounds like he lifted every lick Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) ever played.

@paulgibson490 Год назад

The reason he sounds like Die Straits is he finger picks like Knopfler also born about 30miles apart probably played the same venues.

@geegaz1057 Год назад

@@paulgibson490 More like 180 miles, Mark Knopfler was born in Glasgow 😁

One of my favourite artists of all time with such a great back catalogue of fantastic music. You have to delve deeper into his music - such a great blues like guitarist and singer. Also there is lighter stuff like ‘Let’s Dance’ It is compulsory for you to do more reactions to Chris Rea.
