Lyrics
Between the eyes of love I call your name
Behind those guarded walls I used to go
Upon a summer wind there's a certain melody
Takes me back to the place that I know
Down on the beach
The secrets of the summer I will keep
The sands of time will blow a mystery
No-one but you and I
Underneath that moonlit sky
Take me back to the place that I know
On the beach
Forever in my dreams my heart will be
Hanging on to this sweet memory
A day of strange desire
And a night that burned like fire
Take me back to the place that I know
On the beach

[@ABDULQADIR-yy6qm]

Why to spoil it with any drinking or any bodily movement?, it should be lonely beach with crystal clear blue waters , lots of palm trees and under its shadows a very comfy beach chair, while this music on repeat at soft volume, and me staring at sea for hours, just sitting and staring, alone...😇😌....... and absolutely no shades/sunglasses......

[@gavinbolton4660]

July 1986, I was on Grand Comore Island, one evening driving from Le Galawa back to Mohroni just passing the airport, looking out at the most spectacular sunset over the ocean, Ken popped this album in the cassette player and on the beach came wafting surreally through the speakers of our beat up transport, for a brief moment we where transported into another world, winding our way along the coastal road towards Itsandra, fruit bats swooping around in the pink and purple sky as that huge fiery orange orb of a sun started settling on the horizon of the Indian ocean. Time was forgotten as we became entranced in Chris’s words. Such a sweet memory during a very difficult time in my life.

[@user-fm9nz7fn9t]

Музыкант и певец Крис Ри не один день тренировал свой голосовой диапазон пускай и не высокой тональности, но и на низких нотах поверьте петь ещё сложнее. Я занималась около года тренировкой голосовых связок и мне пришлось бросить тк постоянно с осени до середины апреля не могла заниматься нормально. Преподаватель меня постоянно отправляла домой с пол занятия. Как оказалось спустя пять лет из-за банального фарингита. Я попала не к тому доктору. Ушла вся в медицину с головой, но музыка моё второе дыхание Всегда люблю слушать профессионалов, как Крис РИА!

[@georgesawtooth2214]

Chris Rea is easily one of the top songwriters/performers of all time.

[@robertgamble2829]

A maestro of the '70s, kicking off in the UK in 1978 with "Fool if you think its over" written for his young broken hearted sister, and with many top compositions following including this in 1985, evoking perfectly the blend of summer sun, sea and surf, with that gorgeous red & white theme to the very catchy beat. Such talent, rarely recognised these days of blurted grunge, but his music from that great 70/80s era remains his testimony. A valiant survivor of a tough time, go Chris!!!

[@hongbangdynasty1432]

"On the Beach" was inspired by the Spanish island Formentera off the coast of Ibiza. Speaking to Songfacts, Rea said, "That's where me and my wife became me and my wife. That's what it's about. Yeah, I was 'between the eyes of love.' It's a lovely island if ever you're in Europe.

Until now, and now I am trying to heal myself because Chris looked like Andrew Dos Pechos and gave me rohypnol to sleep and placed me in a position asleep? as a form of ritual copying 1944 and Debbie Marie Howard 1949, why do these rituals exist? What is the point of these rituals. That is what I want to know? Why do they still continue? Is it a form of ownership? Because nothing in corfu happened like that???? I am just trying to understand? You knew I was frightened of holes since 1980, and you didn't care! Still did it anyway. I am trying to understand the reasoning behind it???? Poor Mary. She thought I stole her boyfriend when it was a date rape drug. I wouldn't steal another person's boyfriend.

How powerful was this song/video? I saw it twice on Mtv back in the day. I was drunk both times and waiting for sandwiches in the middle of the night, both times in the 80s, in Knoxville, Tennessee. Never saw it again until KZbin in the 2010s -- but probably not the enhanced official version. Never forgot. Went looking for it, such was its affect. Chris Rea is a master. This is not his only masterpiece. My list of hopes is a short one. I have one that involves England, that is to see Rea in concert live. It wouldn't hurt to witness this one, but I have a list.

The absolutely superb Chris Rea. Chris has been through the wars lately with his health and has to take at least 35 pills a day to keep him alive but thankfully he’s still with us although almost unrecognisable from these days of making these great songs. Chris is a true gentleman and never ever saw himself as a pop star although he always wanted to be one. God bless you Chris and keep making these fantastic songs.

A mis 64 años tengo la suerte de ver la playa desde mi casa en Benidorm, España. Dios te doy gracias, todos los días.

Beautiful music, I grew up with the music of Chris Rea. I saw Chris Rea on a TV as a guest in the audiance1989 as a child. My mother went with me as the adult guardian.

The cinematography is as perfect as the song itself.

[@jasonlee7816]

why is it perfect?

[@wataboutya9310]

Jason Lee Perfect is a relative term and I was just trying to describe how I felt about how well the video and the tune complemented each other. This music video was one of the early attempts at such as MTV was turning the music industry on its head at the time. Kind of like when talking pictures replaced silent movies.

i found the pace of the song a bit slow or too slow i preferred his faster pace song Let's Dance
