Here in Austin, Chris Rea's 'Texas' is like a state anthem, despite the fact that he's British. This man is dramatically underrated as a guitarist, singer, and songwriter.
Chris Rea is a such a talented artist and underrated in the musical world...a long list of songs in his musical catalogue. This song reminds me of summer...next song to hit from Chris is Road to hell. Thanks.
I’m 61 and have listened to music everyday since I can remember…I first heard Chris Rea “Fool if you think it’s over” a month ago…since then, I’ve listened to all 25 albums and each one was awesome in its own way…America missed out on a musical genius…respect…
Chris Rea is/was the best european blues singer/guitarist. Since the early 1980s, however, he has repeatedly struggled with gastrointestinal cancer and strokes. In 2017 he retired from the music circus.
You really should do Road To Hell. It was inspired when he was sitting in traffic on the way home from the airport, and he thought he saw his mum's reflection, his mum had recently passed. He really is awesome. His slide guitar is just so good.
I'm just recovering from a hard faint - a channel is covering Chris Rea! I'm a big Elton fan but Chris runs him very very close. No one captures the heat shimmer of the beach quite like him. If you listen to this one you should really combine it with the next two on the album as they tell a kind of story of heat, dust, sweat and trembling lust. Follow ups? Auberge, Looking For the Summer, Windy Town, Curse Of the Traveller. So many great songs, sadly so few hits.
This version is different than the "radio edition". The very recognizable guitar isn't here (there's that melody played a little by the piano) but it's still a great, classy song. Your reaction was awesome as you've focused on the details.
I’m back for another rewatch. I had no idea this version existed until you reacted to it, and now it’s my favorite. I hadn’t heard it in decades until your channel…thanks so much Nick, Ryan and Ty!!
I love this song - reminds me of a trip I took to South Africa in 1989. I bought the album "Old Light Through New Windows" with a lot of his hits on it and played it over and over. I think it's the U.K. version because the mixes are different than the songs I've heard on the radio in the U.S. He has many good songs, but this one is my favorite.
A great Chris Rea song is ‘Windy Town’. I was in Australia 35 years ago. I think Windy Town and Loving You Again were two top 10 hits at the same time. Constantly played on the radio. I felt robbed coming back to the USA and rarely hearing his music played.
Chris Rea has produced some great songs and include 'Lets Dance', 'Julia', 'Looking for the Summer', 'I can hear your heartbeat', 'You can go your own way' and 'Road to hell' and many more which illustrate his talents.
I *love* Josephine. From his absolutely superb album Shamrock Diaries. Steel River and Stainsby Girls are both terrific songs that showcase his guitar playing more than this song does.
I think it was me who asked for this, a long time ago! 😊. There are so many different versions of this, with different production values and instrumental arrangements. They’re all so good it’s impossible to know which one to settle for! On our honeymoon we went to a tropical island in the Seychelles. The beaches were deserted. We drank champagne and listened to this.
I think the more up tempo version which has the guitar solo instead of this version's piano solo would have been a better one to react to. They are all great, but that particular version would have made for a better reaction video.
I had no idea he had done other versions of this, the version I heard on the radio in the US had was the official music video song track. Love that version and enjoyed this one they reacted to. Was excited to see a Chris Rea reaction!
Wow I had no clue this song had versions..this ones also freaking brilliant !!!! ...the one I have has a guitar or keyboard outro solo..more like an extended version of the video..but a nice discovery after almost 25 yrs of having this song !
You pronounced his name is correctly. He only had 1 song that was played on the radio and it was a mainstream hit called Fool if you think it’s over. It was about his sister’s breakup with a guy and he wanted to comfort her all will be. OK
Since my birth in 1965, there is one brilliant male artist who endures - Chris Rea. You guys would love his extraordinary guitar/slide guitar work on 'Warm and Tender Love" and 50 others and his impeccable pop on Diamonds, and 20 others. He is one of teh most popular artists in the Uk and much of Europe and legendary in Russia. The US has so sadly missed out. Loved in Oz. He has endless songs like On The Beach..infact, this whole album puts you on the beach..living in Thailand it's my go to album when on the beach watching the sunset.
Among some of his great songs include Road to hell, Lets Dance, Julia, I can hear your heartbeat, Windy Town, Steel River etc if you get an opportunity
I've been a Chris Rea fan for decades. I went to a concert once and it was brilliant. Songs you absolutely should listen to are "Que Sera", "Julia", "The Road to Hell", "Auberge", "Driving Home for Christmas"
Great selection, gents. Rea is velvet smooth. Along the same lines to a degree is the Bobby Caldwell hit, "What You Won't Do For Love". Terrific stuff.
Damn! This song gave me goosebumps, (I just came back from the beach).. I heard Chris Rea years ago, but he was forgotten in the interim..never again! Thank you so much for this, and all the work you guys do!! Love ya!
You listened to the first version of 1986. There is an edited version from 1988 with a beach video and a more prominent guitar lick. You guys should check it for comparison, because this little lick played by the guitar instead of the keyboards is iconic.
It was the MTV video of the time. The images captured the beach atmosphere wonderfully, evoking an endless summer day of blue green water and a bluer than blue sky. The lady? Entrancing. Chris set the mood, playing his solo acoustic guitar and singing with wistful remembrance of, it turns out, his own past. A favorite song and video of mine, then and now.
I have watched this reaction multiple times as it's one of the best I've ever seen. All three of you are totally in the zone with it. Perfect. I wish you would react to his live performance of it in Montreux in 1997. It's about 10 mins long but it's a masterpiece. You'd be glad you did. Keep up the great work! 👍🏻
Hi guys great reaction, how about giving a reaction to Chris Rea Till the morning sun shines on my love and me, do the live version and see how good he is on the guitar
Chris also plays piano. The first song of his I heard was Diamonds. The video features him sitting, playing piano. That is one for you guys to check out. Easily a 12 out of 10.
Thanks for sharing this one. He somehow flew under my radar, so I'll be checking some of his other work. I researched his medical issues. Chris Rea is an incredible artist, and a true inspiration. His story and mine are identical in every way, including the surgery. I'm a 12 year survivor.
Chris Rea is a genius. So many great albums and songs. Looking for the Summer, The Curse of the Traveller, The Road to Hell, Josephine, on and on. If you want a great sample, his 'New Light through Old Windows' collection reworks many of his brilliant songs and biggest hits and yes, Driving Home For Christmas is the best Christmas song ever... It is on loop at my house in OZ, even though it his summer here at Christmas time.
One of my favorite little known artists here in America. Can't wait!! You will see what a Brit from Middlesbrough, UK obsesses about....women and a warm sandy beach on the Med. The video was taken in Santorini, still a hot spot for warm weather and seductive women. Enjoy how smooth he resonates.
A bit of Chris Rea trivia, his family operated an ice cream factory/coffee bar in Middlesbrough where the legendary British soccer player and manager Brian Clough used to hang out. He even met his wife there.
Hi from Scotland,i have seen him 8 times live at different parts of his song writing,Awesome,every album is different through the years,hope this is the album version,the original,Awesome.
I'm o jealous! I've loved him since fool if you think it's over with stripped scarf! I feel like grew old together! His voice has changed thru out the years. Love his guitar playing and piano too!
Chris did play "Road to Hell" on Letterman, but he is generally unknown here in the USA. He's huge in the UK and eastern Europe. Careful with Chris, he does have multiple versions of his hit songs and you picked the down tempo version. The official video version is much tighter. The other song that fits this theme and is equally if not more catchy and evocative is "Looking For The Summer". ruclips.net/video/sRjm5ZGNMLQ/видео.html
Check out “its all gone” from “Road to Hell” - a contrast that shows Chris Rea’s versatility. On the Beach gets plenty of play on my vinyl copy - I like this smooth version from the album more than the faster radio release version
I've been reading most of the comments below and agree with the unique talents of Chris Rea and their words trying to express such. My absolute favorite song of his, by a hair over so many, is "Just Wanna Be with you." Please check this one out and I would love to see your reactions.
There is a better version of this on the album New Lights Through Old Windows. It highlights the guitar more. But I have more than 12 of his albums. He's right up there with Al Stewart for me. And yes, he does a shit ton of blues.
Gracias amigos, aunque nunca toco un concierto en América, él es muy conocido en Europa ,España, Australia, Japón, y tiene muchísima música, hasta el 2002 música hermosa , después de ese año toco, su pasión el Blues, que también es muy bueno. Está primera versión se On the Beach, es magistral, pero hay otras versiones que el mismo hizo, pueden analizar la versión de l994 en Taratata Francia, es fenomenal, pongan más de su música, porfavor, mil gracias, Al maestro y Slide Guitar, CHRIS REA 😍😍😍😍
Guys, I'm begging you to listen to the Full studio version of Road to Hell (full version adds a whole other dimension). It leaves this track in the dust.
I bought a package he put out of 11 albums, each album a different taste of blues, for example, one was Texas Blues, another, Chicago Blues. To release 11 albums at once, incredible.
I’m thinking why isn’t it weird seeing you 3 sashaying along to the music like that ? Then I listen and look and realise I’m doing it too 😆 it’s not possible not to sway in time with this infectious choon .. just awesome 👍🏴
He comes from Middlesbrough, same as David Coverdale Whitesnake, Paul Rodgers Free... They were breathing in petro-chemical fumes, and smoke from the steelworks from birth which explains their gruff voices 😉
Chris is absolutely brilliant. Such a gufted musician. I've got every one of his albums and still regularly listen to them - wonderful !
Here in Austin, Chris Rea's 'Texas' is like a state anthem, despite the fact that he's British. This man is dramatically underrated as a guitarist, singer, and songwriter.
My favourite Chris Rea track
He's very much admired and respected in the guitar circles .
Super seventies as uual!
This song was my intro to Rea in 1993 and I was hooked for life.
Chris Rea made one of the greatest Christmas songs ever called driving home for Christmas it's beautiful it includes more of his lovely guitar work.
My favourite EVER Christmas song ⛄
@@bladeschick1 yes his voice just captures the mood.
Agree!
Joys of christmas my fav
Have just read your comment as it has just turned Christmas Day here in the U.K.Happy Christmas 2022 everyone.
So glad to see young people discover MUSIC that really moves the soul.
Chris Rea is a such a talented artist and underrated in the musical world...a long list of songs in his musical catalogue. This song reminds me of summer...next song to hit from Chris is Road to hell. Thanks.
A month late here but yeah, Chris Rea is seriously underrated and underplayed. Road to Hell is a must. I like his song "Texas" as well.
I’m 61 and have listened to music everyday since I can remember…I first heard Chris Rea “Fool if you think it’s over” a month ago…since then, I’ve listened to all 25 albums and each one was awesome in its own way…America missed out on a musical genius…respect…
Chris Rea is/was the best european blues singer/guitarist. Since the early 1980s, however, he has repeatedly struggled with gastrointestinal cancer and strokes. In 2017 he retired from the music circus.
OMG Chris Rea is brilliant. Just brilliant.
Loved Chris Rea over 40 years... highway to hell, fool if you think its over .... Auberge! Listen to all his catalog! Hes so versatile!
You really should do Road To Hell. It was inspired when he was sitting in traffic on the way home from the airport, and he thought he saw his mum's reflection, his mum had recently passed. He really is awesome. His slide guitar is just so good.
Chris rea - Fool if you think it's over
Chris Rea is phenomenal.
I love the smooth jazzy feel of this song and the rasp of Chris Rea’s voice. His song “Fool If You Think It’s Over” is fantastic too!
Thank you thank you this guy is magical😍please more Chris Rea ❤️❤️❤️
I'm just recovering from a hard faint - a channel is covering Chris Rea! I'm a big Elton fan but Chris runs him very very close.
No one captures the heat shimmer of the beach quite like him. If you listen to this one you should really combine it with the next two on the album as they tell a kind of story of heat, dust, sweat and trembling lust.
Follow ups? Auberge, Looking For the Summer, Windy Town, Curse Of the Traveller. So many great songs, sadly so few hits.

This version is different than the "radio edition". The very recognizable guitar isn't here (there's that melody played a little by the piano) but it's still a great, classy song. Your reaction was awesome as you've focused on the details.
One of the best Blues guitarists you never heard of. "Josephine" is one of my favorites.
Cracking song!
I’m back for another rewatch. I had no idea this version existed until you reacted to it, and now it’s my favorite. I hadn’t heard it in decades until your channel…thanks so much Nick, Ryan and Ty!!
Everyone knows Fool If You Think It’s Over, which is great, but his recording of Driving Home For Christmas is lovely.
I love this song - reminds me of a trip I took to South Africa in 1989. I bought the album "Old Light Through New Windows" with a lot of his hits on it and played it over and over. I think it's the U.K. version because the mixes are different than the songs I've heard on the radio in the U.S. He has many good songs, but this one is my favorite.
Nobody mentioned "Fool (If You Think It's Over)"?
It's my favourite of his! Ryan would love the horn segment.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I`m your BIGGEST friend
That song takes me back to my disco days and I love it.Also love Driving home for Christmas.
''Looking for the summer'' is my favourite song by Chris Rea
Chris Rea ,Fool if you think its over 😍👍
A great Chris Rea song is ‘Windy Town’.
I was in Australia 35 years ago. I think Windy Town and Loving You Again were two top 10 hits at the same time. Constantly played on the radio. I felt robbed coming back to the USA and rarely hearing his music played.
Loving You Again. , Josephine, Warm and Tender Love with it's super guitar ending. So many more.
I’m about to google the song Windy Town….. I’m in Australia I hoped you really liked us down under
@@catheyvincent3374 I hope you liked it. That and Loving You Again. I think of Manly Beach anytime I hear either song 😎
"Tell me there's a Heaven" will get your tears flowing.
I second this emotion. "Tell Me There's A Heaven" is a beautifully thought provoking song. Please react to this overlooked gem.
Disfrute mucho sus reacciones soy fan de Chris Rea es importante que otras generaciones también lo escuchen para conocer su música ❤😂
You need to do a couple more of his songs "Road to Hell" and "Fool if You Think it is Over". Another beach song from him is "And You My Love".
Chris Rea's biggest hit is If you think it's over, which is a classic single from the 70s. My favorite song of his is Looking for the summer.
I loooove this song 💛👍🏽🙋🏽♀️ Chris Rea is such a talented song writer , with a unique feel.
Love Chris Rea, excited to see your responses.
A beautiful track by Mr Rea is Giveny.
Chris Rea has produced some great songs and include 'Lets Dance', 'Julia', 'Looking for the Summer', 'I can hear your heartbeat', 'You can go your own way' and 'Road to hell' and many more which illustrate his talents.
This is the vibey album version. The single version was dramatically different with the hook turned up to 11. Both are great.
Yes, the remix was made for the video, I think. Chris Rea, each time, made at least two versions of his songs.
Best known for "Fool if you Think it's Over". "Josephine" is beautiful.
I *love* Josephine. From his absolutely superb album Shamrock Diaries. Steel River and Stainsby Girls are both terrific songs that showcase his guitar playing more than this song does.
I agree! Josephine was written about his daughter. Love Fool if You Think Its Over, wow!!!
Yeah but WHICH version of Josephine! 😂
Rea makes so many versions that it can be a pain to find the right one sometimes.
This song is like a warm summer breeze hug it never gets old, just a beautiful song
I think it was me who asked for this, a long time ago! 😊.
There are so many different versions of this, with different production values and instrumental arrangements. They’re all so good it’s impossible to know which one to settle for!
On our honeymoon we went to a tropical island in the Seychelles. The beaches were deserted. We drank champagne and listened to this.

I had no idea he had done other versions of this, the version I heard on the radio in the US had was the official music video song track. Love that version and enjoyed this one they reacted to. Was excited to see a Chris Rea reaction!
One of my all time favorite artists
Same here. Easily on my Top Two.
Goose pimple inducing music and lyrics by a true musical genius 😊😊😊😊😊
There are so many Songs from him that blew you Guys away, like ( looking for the summer, its all gone live 1988, auf immer und ewig,.......)
Wow I had no clue this song had versions..this ones also freaking brilliant !!!! ...the one I have has a guitar or keyboard outro solo..more like an extended version of the video..but a nice discovery after almost 25 yrs of having this song !
You pronounced his name is correctly. He only had 1 song that was played on the radio and it was a mainstream hit called Fool if you think it’s over. It was about his sister’s breakup with a guy and he wanted to comfort her all will be. OK
Chris is from Middlesborough ( Middlesbro for short lol) on the North East Coast of England

Chris Rea - Girl in a Sports Car it's a very elegant song.
Chris Rhea's music is night music. Great stuff for deep night music to play in the dark.
Among some of his great songs include Road to hell, Lets Dance, Julia, I can hear your heartbeat, Windy Town, Steel River etc if you get an opportunity
I've been a Chris Rea fan for decades. I went to a concert once and it was brilliant. Songs you absolutely should listen to are "Que Sera", "Julia", "The Road to Hell", "Auberge", "Driving Home for Christmas"
Road to Hell is another of his greatest, but there are so many, keep going with Chris!
You need to listen to 'the Road to Hell' the extended version would be good. Chris Rea is a virtuoso guitarist & has a great voice.
Great selection, gents. Rea is velvet smooth. Along the same lines to a degree is the Bobby Caldwell hit, "What You Won't Do For Love". Terrific stuff.
Great song!! It's on my Cayman Islands Playlist. I sit with my feet in the water and listen to this over and over! Perfect choice!
Great, underrated artist - Fool if you Think it’s Over; Road to Hell, Driving Home For Christmas, great tunes.
This version is much slower (and romantic) than the radio version. I like the faster version better - so much more musically engaging.
Damn! This song gave me goosebumps, (I just came back from the beach).. I heard Chris Rea years ago, but he was forgotten in the interim..never again! Thank you so much for this, and all the work you guys do!! Love ya!
You listened to the first version of 1986. There is an edited version from 1988 with a beach video and a more prominent guitar lick. You guys should check it for comparison, because this little lick played by the guitar instead of the keyboards is iconic.
100% what you say, the single version has a repetitive guitar lick and is maybe faster too, reminds me of flamenco a little.
Yes that's the version I knew, I was wondering why this was different
ruclips.net/video/-yXVufG5oV0/видео.html
It was the MTV video of the time. The images captured the beach atmosphere wonderfully, evoking an endless summer day of blue green water and a bluer than blue sky. The lady? Entrancing. Chris set the mood, playing his solo acoustic guitar and singing with wistful remembrance of, it turns out, his own past. A favorite song and video of mine, then and now.
This is no Joke he has so much Hits its absolutly crazy.
Guys you’ve just GOT to review “Driving Home For Christmas” by Chris….
I have watched this reaction multiple times as it's one of the best I've ever seen. All three of you are totally in the zone with it. Perfect.
I wish you would react to his live performance of it in Montreux in 1997. It's about 10 mins long but it's a masterpiece. You'd be glad you did. Keep up the great work! 👍🏻
Hi guys great reaction, how about giving a reaction to Chris Rea Till the morning sun shines on my love and me, do the live version and see how good he is on the guitar
"Josephine" is beautiful! ❤️
All my attempts to get him a play have slipped between the cracks, so thanks, he's a big deal from my past and it's good to see you enjoy!
Chris also plays piano. The first song of his I heard was Diamonds. The video features him sitting, playing piano. That is one for you guys to check out. Easily a 12 out of 10.

It is on loop at my house in OZ, even though it his summer here at Christmas time.
Brilliant as usual
Agreed! Next banger should be The Road To Hell,the 2 part audio version,not the video.....awesome guitarist.
Chris Rea "road to hell" is even better in my opinion amazing
One of my favorite little known artists here in America. Can't wait!! You will see what a Brit from Middlesbrough, UK obsesses about....women and a warm sandy beach on the Med. The video was taken in Santorini, still a hot spot for warm weather and seductive women. Enjoy how smooth he resonates.
A bit of Chris Rea trivia, his family operated an ice cream factory/coffee bar in Middlesbrough where the legendary British soccer player and manager Brian Clough used to hang out. He even met his wife there.
check out the single release, faster tempo and great guitar lick that answers vocal.
Chris' husky voice is what makes him sound great.
Hi from Scotland,i have seen him 8 times live at different parts of his song writing,Awesome,every album is different through the years,hope this is the album version,the original,Awesome.
I'm o jealous! I've loved him since fool if you think it's over with stripped scarf! I feel like grew old together! His voice has changed thru out the years. Love his guitar playing and piano too!
You might want to review Auberge. It shows a different style from Rea.
Live he has the same voice. And a great guitar player.
Formentera is an Island behind Ibiza and this sound is all you hear all day....but in the night it chance a lot..you know
Only 30 minutes in a boat..
Great beaches there lovely island
Chris did play "Road to Hell" on Letterman, but he is generally unknown here in the USA. He's huge in the UK and eastern Europe. Careful with Chris, he does have multiple versions of his hit songs and you picked the down tempo version. The official video version is much tighter. The other song that fits this theme and is equally if not more catchy and evocative is "Looking For The Summer".
ruclips.net/video/sRjm5ZGNMLQ/видео.html
Letterman was a big fan of Chris.
Check out “its all gone” from “Road to Hell” - a contrast that shows Chris Rea’s versatility. On the Beach gets plenty of play on my vinyl copy - I like this smooth version from the album more than the faster radio release version
This guy is a master you have to hear the road to hell it is his masterpiece ! Auberge and Texas are great too
I've been reading most of the comments below and agree with the unique talents of Chris Rea and their words trying to express such. My absolute favorite song of his, by a hair over so many, is "Just Wanna Be with you." Please check this one out and I would love to see your reactions.
Listen to a song he did called “Texas“ unbelievable
There is a better version of this on the album New Lights Through Old Windows. It highlights the guitar more. But I have more than 12 of his albums. He's right up there with Al Stewart for me. And yes, he does a shit ton of blues.
There’s another version of this song, he redid it with a new guitar melody - and a vibe solo - became a club hit too. Check it out!
The background vocals are awesome..way in the back on the chorus you can hear them say....down.....before he says on the beach..its awesome
Gracias amigos, aunque nunca toco un concierto en América, él es muy conocido en Europa ,España, Australia, Japón, y tiene muchísima música, hasta el 2002 música hermosa , después de ese año toco, su pasión el Blues, que también es muy bueno. Está primera versión se On the Beach, es magistral, pero hay otras versiones que el mismo hizo, pueden analizar la versión de l994 en Taratata Francia, es fenomenal, pongan más de su música, porfavor, mil gracias, Al maestro y Slide Guitar, CHRIS REA 😍😍😍😍
Guys, I'm begging you to listen to the Full studio version of Road to Hell (full version adds a whole other dimension). It leaves this track in the dust.
Curse for the traveler, the road to hell, josephine....many beautiful songs from a great artist
Chris Rea - "King of the Beach" is my personal favorite.
Guys
Check out
Chris Rea - Road to hell (full version)
You are sooo spot on with the blues comment! This guy is phenomenal live...hope you delve in deeper..his stuff is amazing
I bought a package he put out of 11 albums, each album a different taste of blues, for example, one was Texas Blues, another, Chicago Blues. To release 11 albums at once, incredible.
Do believe you gentlemen would enjoy his "Diamonds". Keep up the good work. Respect from Australia 🇭🇲
I’m thinking why isn’t it weird seeing you 3 sashaying along to the music like that ? Then I listen and look and realise I’m doing it too 😆 it’s not possible not to sway in time with this infectious choon .. just awesome 👍🏴
“REASONS” on the “Wired To The Moon album!! - Yacht Rock Or What!!! Great Album from a U K rock legend!
Always Loved this song , my summer song 🥹💙🇬🇧 p.s this is a slower version is the one you are listening, it usually quicker
This version is different to the much more well known single version of the song. It's got a real iconic higher pitched guitar riff to it.
Agreed. That would've been the better version to react to.
He comes from Middlesbrough, same as David Coverdale Whitesnake, Paul Rodgers Free... They were breathing in petro-chemical fumes, and smoke from the steelworks from birth which explains their gruff voices 😉
Think you'll love 'road to hell parts 1&2. Great reaction guys🙏
Road to Hell is a favorite.
Chillin' music. I'll play this next year at Gulf Shores.
My favorite Chris Rea is Fool (if you think it's over) from 1978. Do give it a listen.
One of his best.
Guys you should listen to "Road to Hell😄"
