Wow, blown away yet again! And he plays all the instruments, right? Very excited for the Rea Rabbit Hole!!! Thanks for watching! 🥰
Greetings from Ireland.
Ive been listening to Chris Rea for the past 40 years and I never tire of him .His music is timeless. He is half Irish.☘️
Hello again! So excited for the journey of this amazing musician!
Chris had one of those great smoky voices and also a great slide player.
For sure, one of my top favorite discoveries on this channel! Thanks
Oooh Josephine, lush harmonies with a disco beat. Gorgeous. Now Brandon let's get down on the beach, sun is out!
2 fantastic journeys today from Chris!
Great act, great voice, great melodies!
For sure, thanks for stopping by today!
One of the best writers, guitarists and artists ever.
Enjoyed your reaction!!! Definitely recommend his song "Texas"!! Great arrangement and production!!
Chris has a very loyal and dedicated group of fans. Isn't it surprising how much dross there is around when so many people have never heard of him.
I meant to say i was a DJ for 14 years here in Scotland and i would just like to say,you are the most refreshing music reactor on YT,,oh and the music you will be playing will be the music i played when i was a DJ,Once again best wishes from Scotland.
Hello from Scotland,first may i say i just stumbled across your wonderful today,and may i say i love your style.I have been so lucky to have seen Chris 8 times and i have met him 5 times as my brother is one of the sound engineers at the venue where Chris played.Chris has approx 32 albums and all are different kind of genre,also may i say if you want to go deep play his album song,not the singles,as yourself and many others will have the awesome music of Chris.I am 60 and have most of his Cds,how can i request nothing To Fear by Chris? IMHO its a song that could be played today.Best wishes from Scotland,Ps you have another subscriber.
This a trip through my bloody life , going from 60’ s, 70’s, 80’s& 90’s 🤦♀️
Wow, hope you like the songs! Guess I'm bringing lots of memories for you.
@@retroreactions.... oh yes!!& where you were. I am at the moment obsessed with a new band of today& I can’t believe it.
British band formed in 2016 called “ Sleep Token” phenomenal, not your ordinary guys & I’ll leave it at that , they have blown up& their concerts are sold out immediately.
WORSHIP❤️
Cool maybe I'll check them out on my own!
Josephine is one of Chris' daughters.
Hey Brandon. Looking forward to this.
Hi! Nice to see you...thanks for being first today 🥇
@@retroreactions.... YW. Great reactions as always. Chris is ridiculously talented. So glad you gave him platinum.
Can't wait to hear more from him!
@@retroreactions.... I have a list of one or two suggestions for you and I have great taste. Ok maybe more than one or two but I bet you thank me after. Word! Just say and I'll give you the first say, ten? I love sharing the love of music. I think I would literally wither away without music. Music is life. Mum is a music lover going back to her childhood. She loves all types of stuff, Dylan, Queen, Caruso, CSN&Y Cat Stevens (and my dad looked like Cat's twin brother, I kid you not). so many she loved. She is still here with us (and dad) but is profoundly deaf now and her greatest sorrow is that she can no longer hear it. Some of what I listen to, I listen for my mum.
Life story in one paragraph, so sorry I went on a bit, it just breaks my heart for her.
Thanks so much for sharing your personal story. Any suggestions are welcome, sadly though my to do list is probably at about 3,000 songs by now...talk about overwhelming!!!
One of his biggest hits is "Fool (If you think it's over). If you haven't listened to this, it's a good one. Listen to the original 1978 version if you do.
With that Disco Ball, I thought we would get Gloria Gaynor. Patti Labell or Earth Wind and Fire. :-) But we got the sweet sound of Chris Rea.
Haha, I would make a whole disco reaction channel if I had the time!
Thanks for watching!
This song was on repeat when my mom drove me to karate practise in her 1985 Mazda 323.
85/86 disco may have gone but dancing and clubbing were still really popular, trust me nn this. I knew you would love Chris.
The first version of Josephine is very different, much more beautiful
I figured, based on the fact that it was blues based, right?
That is the second remixed version from Josephine, more dynamic than the first one. Idem about On the Beach, the one used for the video clip, by the way faster than the first version.
All'epoca non esisteva festa tra amici che non passasse questi brani.
Mi piacciono molto gli sfondi che metti alle tue spalle ...tutti in tema coi brani che ci proponi 👍
Grazie!!
Así es amigo Retro, Chris es un hombre, que por amor a su familia, se conformo sólo con el público Europeo, aquí en América, pasó desapercibido, y nos privo de esta exquisita música, el tiene 4 décadas de música increíble, aun los últimos 20 años de su música donde cambió de su música tradicional, y la cambió por su pasión al Blues, también es increíble, una vez que escuche una canción, querrás oír todo de él, gracias por compartir su música, y así las nuevas generaciones lo conocerán, I love Chris Rea por siempre, gracias ❤❤❤❤❤
Thats the Summer 88 version of On the Beach, which is much faster than the 1986 version. The full album version from New Light theough Old Windows is the best.
Yes, sadly I made a mistake there. The album version is my favorite of the 2 by a mile!
CHRIS REA's guitar (a Fender Stratocaster which he called "Pinky"!!!) blues playing is still just as catchy. We hear the soul more than the technique... and that is perhaps the quality of a "real" musician. "The Road To Hell", "Josephine", "On The Beach", "Fool (If You Think It's Over)", "Looking For The Summer" and "I Can Hear Your Heartbeat" are staples of his production. It is to wonder how this author-composer-interpreter could pass so much under the radars. Alas, not recognized at its fair value. And what a voice! But, in my opinion, his masterpiece remains "Tell Me There's a Heaven". Composition, orchestration (symphonic type) and lyrics (the theme commands introspection) of a depth that draws tears. Rea the bluesman of the road, of love and pleasure gives way here to the benefit of Rea the mortal man whom the big question challenges. In short: Sublime! Impossible to listen to this song and come out of it intact, unchanged. It inevitably leaves traces. Thanks.
Wow, "Tell Me" sounds amazing! Can't wait for that one, thanks!
Nice! My favourite song is 'Curse of the traveller'
I wish you would have reacted to the extended version that has about 3 added minutes of wonderful instrumental. I suggest you listen to it on your own and close your eyes. You will like it even more. Nevertheless, great reaction!
Grazie!
For your next Rea’s reaction I suggest Texas, All Summer Long, I Just Want to be with You, Steel River and Your Warm and Render Love.
You and me both! Wish you could have seen my expression start deflating as I watched Views From The 502's reaction to this song and quickly realized that there is a different version that is EVEN BETTER! C'est la vie, gotta be more careful next time...but yes the long album version is divine! Thank you so much for watching and for the suggestions!
Nice choice with Chris Rea today. I do like both of these songs, great vibes. Maybe the next time you choose Chris, I recommend “Working On It”, which is a rocker!! Also “Texas” is an epic song, it has some amazing slide guitar. These two songs are my favorites of his, although “Road to Hell” is right up there too.
Hello! Cool, added your votes, I think I'll love every song from this guy. Lots of albums to explore!
Definitely a lot more to explore… he does have a pretty vast discography!! I saw a notice about Depeche Mode going on tour. They’re going to be in Chicago in November, and I see four cities in California, the first week of December. Not sure where you are out west, but if close to you, I bet you’ll try to see them.
Oh you bet right! Since you know they are my favorite band of all time, I've already snatched tix for 2 shows in December! Normally I would do more and follow them around lol but circumstances/commitments are different now...Can't wait!!
Man, you should review Chris Rea's "The mention of your name".
I would like to babysit that baby too!! 👶LOL
Joint custody LOL!
So silly!! ha ha 🤣
Did you watch the Depeche Mode interview? One of them called themselves, The Greatest Alternative Band in the WORLD!! 🌎
Been super busy, but will watch later today, as I'll have some free time finally! My sleep patterns are much improved this past week though!
Nice. Glad your sleep pattern is better, 🙂
Chris is a master musician you might try the road to hell and Texas and Aurberge
Hello. Agreed! I added your votes for T and A and I've already reacted to TRTH! Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/cYJCZqHt7xQ/видео.html
Glad you dove into Chris Rea again. Chris's voice and the instrumentation are great, but Josephine is a bit too repetitious for my taste. On the Beach is more to my liking and definitely deserves a platinum rating. But, my personal favorites show off his raspy voice and slide guitar better than these two. A few off the top of my head are "And You My Love", "Nothing To Fear" and "The Blue Cafe". Thanks, take care
Yes! I love his music so much that he will stay on "rotation" on my channel 🙂 All your suggestions are definitely on my list, I just checked. Thanks for stopping by!!
@@retroreactions.... Awesome!
This is not the original version from Shamrock Diaries.
Yes, sadly I messed up and accidentally chose the '88 version. I have since heard the original and love it even more! Thanks
@@retroreactions....No, it's not the 88 version either (or the other 88 version). It's an edited version of a French remix that replaced the original album version in 1987 and was on all subsequent versions until the 2 disc releases in 2019. Easy mistake to make as most versions of the album have this version. He released no less than five distinct versions of this one between 85 and 88 and another in 2008.
Hey Brandon, if you want to hear a musical treat for your ears, then check out Into the arena & Arena from Asia's Arena album. I seriously believe you will enjoy those two tracks.
If you like those I can recommend other great Asia songs
A few of the best would be good, as I won't be able to get to them often...Thanks
@@retroreactions.... Asia had some very underrated albums and songs that were not the big hits everyone knows. In addition to the Arena album (above mentioned), I'd highly suggest "Who Will Stop The Rain' from the Aqua album, then maybe "Kings Of The Day" from the Aura album
