Sometimes you need to listen to your head. It's painfull. For me it was a girlfriend 400km away. We tried 3 months. When you are 20 it doesn't work. Like the Stones said "You can't always get what you want."
This song went unnoticed for many as it was released in the 80s where the eclectic pop wave was exploding, giving the place to so many radio hits from tons of bands. This song is a nicely kept secret from one of Chris' most commercial album called Man On The Line which was a pretty strong sequel of his most acclaimed album The Getaway. There is a broad spectrum of other great styles on the Man On The Line, the ballads on it are rare but very strong and versatile, produced by the amazing Rupert Hines who gave a very modern sound to this album back in the 80s. Worth every dollar. And this song... oh my god.
Saw the hurt and pain in my brothers eyes last night listening to that song after he losing the mother of he's kids my heart breaks for him it's a beautyful song
Too often people people use their head when they should listen to their heart. Reason can't fill the emptiness of a lonely heart, but love can overcome the loneliness of a cold mind.
The head is nothing without the heart, and misteriously this is what makes us humans. There is no full understanding if we dont accept what we are and we can achieve thru love.
This beautiful song shows why Chis De Burgh is so much more than just Lady in Red. Glad it got him international recognition though. His music so deserves it.
Lady in Red was his most commercially successful song but I personally wouldn't feel its in the top 20 of his greatest songs. A genius of a songwriter and a brilliant live performer.
I was given this tape by a boy at church. We met that same day, got along really well, but he was from another state. I don't even remember which one. But, he died in a boating accident like a month later. I would have never found Chris de Burgh if it wasn't for that boy and that tape.
I loved a long time ago this amazing song and still loving it ....so nice so perfect..the music is so beautiful ...The lyrics are property chosen.. 💓💓💓💓❤️❤️❤️💓.

No hablemos más, vamos a dormir, Let us talk no more, let us go to sleep, Deja que la lluvia caiga sobre el cristal de la ventana, Let the rain fall on the window pane, Y llenar el torreón del castillo, And fill the castle keep, Estoy cansado ahora, cansado hasta los huesos, I am weary now, weary to my bones, Cansado del viaje, Weary from the traveling, Y los interminables caminos rurales, And the endless country roads, Eso nos trajo aquí esta noche, para este fin de semana, That brought us here tonight, for this weekend, Y la oportunidad de resolverlo, And a chance to work it out, Porque no podemos vivir juntos, y no podemos vivir separados, For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart, Es el clásico dilema entre la cabeza y el corazón; It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart; Ella está durmiendo ahora, suavemente en la noche, She is sleeping now, softly in the night, Y en mi corazón de tinieblas ella ha sido la única luz, And in my heart of darkness she has been the only light, Estoy perdido en el amor, mirando su rostro, I am lost in love, looking at her face, Y aún escucho la voz de la razón, And still I hear the voice of reason, Diciéndome que ahuyente estos sueños, Telling me to chase these dreams away, Oh, aquí vamos de nuevo, estamos divididos desde el principio, Oh here we go again, we're divided from the start, Porque no podemos vivir juntos, y no podemos vivir separados, For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart, Es el clásico dilema entre la cabeza y el corazón, It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart, La cabeza y el corazón; The head and the heart; Ahora comienza el amanecer, y todavía no puedo dormir, Now the dawn begins, and still I cannot sleep, Mi cabeza da vueltas, pero ahora el camino está despejado para mí, My head is spinning round but now the way is clear to me, No queda nada, no queda nada que mostrar, There is nothing left, nothing left to show, El jurado y el juez verán, es hora de dejarla ir, The jury and the judge will see, it's time to let her go, Ahora escucha el corazón, Now hear the heart, Creo que el tiempo lo demostrará, I believe that time will show, Ella siempre será parte de mi mundo, She will always be a part of my world, no quiero verla partir, I don't want to see her go, Así que defiendo mi caso para escuchar el corazón, So I plead my case to hear the heart, Y quédate And stay Es hora de dejarla ir, no quiero dejarla ir It's time to let her go, I don't want to let her go Es hora de dejarla ir, no quiero dejarla ir It's time to let her go, I don't want to let her go Es hora de dejarla ir, no quiero dejarla ir It's time to let her go, I don't want to let her go es hora de dejarla ir It's time to let her go Y en este dilema clásico, And in this classical dilemma, Encuentro por, el corazón. I find for, the heart.
Someone important sent it to me.. we made a mistake listening to the heart.. we should have listened to the head.. now we destroyed everything, all the beautiful moments we had.. i regret listening to the heart.. listen to your head even if it's difficult .. you'll always be part of me.. but its time to let you go.. the insults.. I never thought 2 people who cared for each other so much could hurt each other so badly..
I don't know why this song is not on any of his greatest hits albums. Much better than Lady In Red, Lonely Sky, Missing You and the very prejudiced Crusader.
🎼🎶🎶🦉💗🦉🎶🎶🎶🎼 Text tejto skladby si priam vynucuje sa nad ním zamyslieť. Práve v súvislosti s ním: "It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart", vo mne intenzívne zarezonovala myšlienka nášho slovenského autora. "Jednou z úloh mozgu je objaviť, pochopiť, odmietnuť alebo rešpektovať dôvody srdca". Bruyere (franc. esejista, moralista) sa vyjadril, že naše srdce je družnejšie a prístupnejšie ako rozum. Mne osobne sa to veľmi páči. 💞Text na hlbšie zamyslenie a precítenie hudby, čo je práve vlastné Chrisovi de Burgh. 💘
Absolutely exquisite music. Love all his music. Spiritual and uplifting!
The scream in the song when the heart speaks is haunting. Such a beautiful song, such meaningful lyrics. Why on earth listen to the head.
maybe because what the heart tells someone is wrong and it can hurt another heart and break another life....

@@JudithPieters you are right. But still.. I'm a dreamer ;-)
@@ronhoek69 yeah, me too, definitely a dreamer. But this song and the person who introduced it to me, have broken me from that side too..
@@JudithPieters Never stop dreaming Judith.

Un vrai chanteur et une musique vraie : Chris de burgh tout simplement !
I went for the head. I had to do it. But it still hurts. 30 years later.
When I hear this song I always have the thought of "What if?"
OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS SO PERFECT IM CRYINGGGG 😭😭😭❤
The most powerful song from Chris. ❤❤
How does he have the force to sing this without crying♥️? I guess too many rehearsals until one gets desensitized?…
My parents raised me well by teaching me this song on guitar
lovely just proves how good a song writer he is
Przepiękne,młode lata się przypominają ,ech,dziś już takich nie ma 😘😘😘😘☺
This beautiful song shows why Chis De Burgh is so much more than just Lady in Red. Glad it got him international recognition though. His music so deserves it.
Hi
love this piece. Never understood why his "lady in red" is the most popular this is much better imho.
You should listen to Borderline too.
I see it like a song fot myself i see mee in the mirror and want too find myself ❤🙏❤
Lady in Red was his most commercially successful song but I personally wouldn't feel its in the top 20 of his greatest songs. A genius of a songwriter and a brilliant live performer.
This song hurts...
I was given this tape by a boy at church. We met that same day, got along really well, but he was from another state. I don't even remember which one. But, he died in a boating accident like a month later. I would have never found Chris de Burgh if it wasn't for that boy and that tape.
I remember breaking up with the love of my life, the one that got away. I remember hearing this song on the radio on the way home
What an awesome song
The love of my life died in my arms in 2010 we were listening to this song😭😭😭😭😭😞😞😞💔💔💔
My dad would play this album in the car from a cassette, back when cassettes were a thing
My dad as well.. he passed away in 2017 but he’ll live on in Chris’s music.
Me too. It was a great cassette. A great songs and heartfelt.
A really well written song

Love this song
So beautiful the words are so touching
No hablemos más, vamos a dormir,
Let us talk no more, let us go to sleep,
Deja que la lluvia caiga sobre el cristal de la ventana,
Let the rain fall on the window pane,
Y llenar el torreón del castillo,
And fill the castle keep,
Estoy cansado ahora, cansado hasta los huesos,
I am weary now, weary to my bones,
Cansado del viaje,
Weary from the traveling,
Y los interminables caminos rurales,
And the endless country roads,
Eso nos trajo aquí esta noche, para este fin de semana,
That brought us here tonight, for this weekend,
Y la oportunidad de resolverlo,
And a chance to work it out,
Porque no podemos vivir juntos, y no podemos vivir separados,
For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart,
Es el clásico dilema entre la cabeza y el corazón;
It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart;
Ella está durmiendo ahora, suavemente en la noche,
She is sleeping now, softly in the night,
Y en mi corazón de tinieblas ella ha sido la única luz,
And in my heart of darkness she has been the only light,
Estoy perdido en el amor, mirando su rostro,
I am lost in love, looking at her face,
Y aún escucho la voz de la razón,
And still I hear the voice of reason,
Diciéndome que ahuyente estos sueños,
Telling me to chase these dreams away,
Oh, aquí vamos de nuevo, estamos divididos desde el principio,
Oh here we go again, we're divided from the start,
Porque no podemos vivir juntos, y no podemos vivir separados,
For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart,
Es el clásico dilema entre la cabeza y el corazón,
It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart,
La cabeza y el corazón;
The head and the heart;
Ahora comienza el amanecer, y todavía no puedo dormir,
Now the dawn begins, and still I cannot sleep,
Mi cabeza da vueltas, pero ahora el camino está despejado para mí,
My head is spinning round but now the way is clear to me,
No queda nada, no queda nada que mostrar,
There is nothing left, nothing left to show,
El jurado y el juez verán, es hora de dejarla ir,
The jury and the judge will see, it's time to let her go,
Ahora escucha el corazón,
Now hear the heart,
Creo que el tiempo lo demostrará,
I believe that time will show,
Ella siempre será parte de mi mundo,
She will always be a part of my world,
no quiero verla partir,
I don't want to see her go,
Así que defiendo mi caso para escuchar el corazón,
So I plead my case to hear the heart,
Y quédate
And stay
Es hora de dejarla ir, no quiero dejarla ir
It's time to let her go, I don't want to let her go
Es hora de dejarla ir, no quiero dejarla ir
It's time to let her go, I don't want to let her go
Es hora de dejarla ir, no quiero dejarla ir
It's time to let her go, I don't want to let her go
es hora de dejarla ir
It's time to let her go
Y en este dilema clásico,
And in this classical dilemma,
Encuentro por, el corazón.
I find for, the heart.
Someone important sent it to me.. we made a mistake listening to the heart.. we should have listened to the head.. now we destroyed everything, all the beautiful moments we had.. i regret listening to the heart.. listen to your head even if it's difficult .. you'll always be part of me.. but its time to let you go.. the insults.. I never thought 2 people who cared for each other so much could hurt each other so badly..
such a true vision tracing the heart so beautifully..exquisite!
One of his best
indescribably beautiful.....thank you.
Marvelous
I find for the heart :)
the heart should always win but its a decision both people must be agreed on
Thus the dilemma !
my mother
Awesome ❤️
I don't know why this song is not on any of his greatest hits albums. Much better than Lady In Red, Lonely Sky, Missing You and the very prejudiced Crusader.
Almosen the very best ❤
this has to be the hardest decision to make..... should you hold on or let go..xxx
Stick at it love will win
Its harsh and not fair
Listen to your head
I will always follow my heart...
Chris loving u every day
C'est comme ça que je t'aime
He talks about jury and judge...could it not be dedicated to a daughter/ son as a separated parent?
very sweet song indeed.feeling relieved. os thompherese
awesome
My life story 😢
lovely..k
So true

Ďakujem 🤩 veľmi pekne a posielam krásny pozdrav zo 🇸🇰 SLOVENSKA 🇸🇰🎶
is there a version where he chooses for the head?
i chose heads, but i'll give all you critics a chance to prove me wrong when your heart is in another place, unanswered or not
מסכם את כל הזמן ההוא..
