Chris Rea - The Road To Hell Full Version

[@philandtrish]

Wow. I remember, back in March of 1990 and a month before I married my (beautiful, lovely, awesome) wife Trish, my best friend Mark took me out to lunch for my birthday. He gave me a CD - yeah, Chris Rea's "The Road to Hell". I said "Thanks Mark, but I don't have a CD player", and he replied "I'm sure you'll get one soon". So at our wedding rehearsal party, Mark and his wife Beth (two of my all time favorite people, BTW) gave us a CD player for a wedding gift. So awesome. And long story short, this was my 1st CD and still one of my favorites. What a great voice, musician & songwriter...

[@po27166n]

Great story Phil(:

[@kwhite1789]

Amazing... if you wrote your story 4 years ago, and now its 2018... so till 2014 you both had a true love from 1990, if you mentioned this story. All the best to you both.

[@brdwonder]

And my first cousin wanted to march into his wedding with CCR,Bad Moon.

[@mamanesha100]

so nice story - thank you !!!! with best wishe for you 4 ))))

[@juliagootgarts1960]

Agreed

[@6671margaretjackson]

[@arsoyaltinpinar2667]

Rip james

[@infobeam1902]

Awww rip jamesy

[@fudzzz]

RIP James. And bless you margaret.

[@danflory6340]

God bless you!

[@Mylosh35]

One of the best rock songs ever recorded! Simply awesome!

[@scottkilner559]

Absolutely 100% agree he's brilliant both vocaly and guitarist

[@dustdreamer673]

+Milos Milosavljevic the guitar reminds me of sultans of swing

[@PatmosEd]

+DustDreamer you are right !!For years I thought he was one of them!Funny!!!No??

[@ch33ky0_6monk3y]

[@TheMaccyT]

when my dad passed away, he had a study with a wall of nothing but music tapes. we eventually had to clear some but one day i stood alone in the room and some force compelled me to take out the road to hell tape and listen to it. there are forces greater than we know at work in this world

[@milosvasin]

The full version is phenomenal.

[@galinafedor718]

" Стоя на дороге под фонарями , я увидел женщину в стекле .. Свою мать .. Она спросила : " Сын , что ты здесь делаешь ? Я боюсь за тебя даже на том свете.. Я ответил : " Мама , я еду в долину росскоши .. " Сын , ты сбился с пути , ты на автостраде ведущей в ад И все дороги туда , забиты .!" 👍👍👍👍👍 Убойная музыка , особенно , когда слушаешь её в дороге ..👌👍👋

[@LXPhotographie]

There's always been something about this song that just makes me want to break down in tears. I haven't listened to it in like 10 years and here I am trying to keep it together. Soooo bittersweet.

[@6671margaretjackson]

ME TOO.

[@АндрейНовицкий-ы2ш]

Какое вступление, какой ритм, какое звучание. Браво, Бис. Вещ придаёт силы и настроение.

[@ГеоргийТоже]

Да Уж. ..Сильнейшая ВЕЩЬ. Во время стояния в пробке, под проливным дождем, .,НА. ..лобовое стекло, увидел, силуэт Ушедшей в другую жизнь. Силуэт Матери. ..

[@bobbyk57]

Is it just me or does everyone else have trouble NOT listening to this song ten times a day?

[@dafon222]

niesamowity kawałek , zresztą jak wykonawca. znam ten utwór od kiedy zaistniał w radio i nieprzerwanie mnie fascynuje. Chris , jesteś wielki!

[@piscesrunner863]

As I've heard said, 'Most roads to Hell are paved with good intentions...' Great song and film! Many thanks.

[@MaiAnDul]

The most beautiful man's voice in the music industry!

[@АлександрКозка-в3у]

Один из самых (!) любимых исполнителей. Моё удовольствие тонет в океане страсти миллионов.

[@imoldenuff100]

Every time i pull out of Heathrow to go visit family back in UK,this tune always comes into my head.Because its the road the song is all about,and as i am passing Milton Keys and see the concrete Cows,i realize,why i left UK. And left for Canada. But Boy what a good Tune.

[@samanli-tw3id]

chris burton I think the tunnel at 3.54 is at Heathrow.

[@dafon222]

Dopiero całość oddaje ducha tego utworu. Wstęp jest konieczny! Bajeczny kawałek. Chris, jesteś WIELKI !!!!

[@mzmadmike]

This song. Pink Floyd's Another Brick in the Wall. David Bowie's Big Brother. Dire Straits' Industrial Disease. Judas Priest's Electric Eye. They saw EXACTLY where the UK was heading.

[@janetholstrom1529]

I heard this song today off my radio station, had to find this song, don't know why I never heard of him, fantastic song!💜

[@oliaslives6986]

It's odd that I've been a fan of this man since he burst onto the American music charts with "Fool (If You Think It's Over)" in 1979, and this is the first video of his I've ever seen (with the exception of his appearance in Bill Wyman's Willy & The Poor Boys video). There really are no words to express how this guy's music moves me in so many ways...a songwriter of the 1st degree, and that voice...man, that voice.....

[@steverowloff9884]

I first heard this on the soundtrack of the movie, "Beyond the Law ". It grabbed me...the first I ever knew of Chris Rea. I have lived a lot of the story in the shadows.

[@sonicfoxxmusic4281]

Once upon a time, THIS SONG was the reason i chucked in my notice as a travelling salesman and became a songwriter....handed my notice in an hour after hearing it................YEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!....the stars aligned that night. Thanks Chris Rea....i'd kiss you if i could.

[@ruslandzhakupov5927]

Полвека точно прошло. В 71 год приятно слушать! Спасибо!

[@samsa42]

Слушал эту песню когда был маленький... Это прекрасно

[@alexandrakoudinova1236]

it's a classic. these songs are very few in our time

[@sonicfoxxmusic4281]

YOU NAILED THAT....no truer thing said.

[@olgaburgemeister6594]

Спасибо огромное!!!!! просто люблю все его песни ... скачала на комп )))

[@kenickiePL]

There's plenty of music videos with this astonishing sound of unplugged electric guitars! I just love that sound!

[@ΓιώργοςΛαζαρίδης-λ9φ]

Ύστερα από 100 χρόνια, αυτό θα είναι ένα από τα καλύτερα κομμάτια, του κόσμου........

[@АлександрГалицин-д5ы]

Пока Я жив, буду слушать эту Прекрасную песню,в Великолепном Исполнении.

[@ivanamaskaric3573]

Obožavam ovu pjesmu,predivno,hvala !

[@SephSora]

My Dad's favourite song. Still miss sitting with him and listening to this. :(

[@Grinder-one]

Another one of those video's that would have cost millions to make back in the 80's...you could knock it up on your laptop in a few hours these days :) Absolute classic track that still sounds as good today as it always did. Thanks for uploading.

[@tristanmccann9948]

my big brother played this song for me years ago and it still one of my favorites. Great voice, great piano, great lyrics and good and creepy to boot.

[@МарияГуреева-с9й]

Очень люблю этого исполнителя голос потрясающий до мурашек . Спасибо

[@ivanamaskaric3573]

Obožavam ovu melodiju,hvala !

[@imaginaarquitectura]

with 54 years old...lover of all kind of music...I heard about Chris Rea...but I don't remember this amazing song, which says more than simple notes of music...says an all life. Chris Rea you are a master, the boss. i liked too "and you my love"... can anybody tell me another master piece of CR? (I've found dozens and dozens of them)

[@Lintary]

Never heard this, but when I get a chill down my spine I know I landed in a good place music wise, amazing song.

[@katymurphy1814]

Right?! Me too!❤WOW! Dire Straits searching brought me here❤♫

[@elenahaag9380]

жаль не знаю английского. но ,эти Шедевры не требуют перевода. Спасибо Крис....... Спасибо!!!!!!!!!!

[@hsntrkmnturkiye5326]

но не важно знать язык для музыки ...

[@ГалинаВинюкова-п2з]

Елена, перевод всех песен можно найти здесь begin-english.ru/perevod-pesni/chris-rea

[@ГольфСтрим-ц3щ]

Могу ошибаться, но когда не понимаешь о чем песня, лучше воспринимается. Вдруг там ахинею несут, тогда и хорошая мелодия может разонравиться ).

[@qsstores6933]

I've never heard this full version before, what a cracking intro....

[@МиколайЯрошевський]

чудова композиція

[@apollo21599]

I am a bit proud to say that chris rea is the cousin of my english teacher here in greece....true story guys believe me

[@patricknelson1471]

this is one of the best songs ever

[@quinthooper9656]

Love it!

[@davidowen9867]

Yea sure is :-)

[@AmeliaRoselina]

Agreed!

[@emreplatinum]

forever...

[@Combo872]

Went on Spotify, searching for this gem. All i found was new recordings bringing nothing close as to the original. Mr. Rea in his infinitive wisdom has apparently discarded the classic for some excuse regarding "New Version 2008". Although not new, let me just say: Dont ever fuck with the silver!!

[@ЕленаБэрк]

Нет, ребята!!! Такого никто нынче не производит!!! Даже мечтать не приходится((( Жаль, корифеи уходят...

[@chiangmaicharlies]

Fantastic - Chris's most famous number and totally iconic.

[@davehagerty100]

AWESOME! AWESOME! FRICKIN AWESOME!!!!! I keep telling everyone about the brilliance of Chris. The Road To Hell is in my top ten albums. The coolest guy!!

[@lindskey]

I love this song and also hope that you Cris and Ari Vatanen ar still best friends! You Cris made a song that never ever will be forgotten! I am just a person who like Rally and Ari Vatanen was and will allways be the No 1!

[@bobdonald6982]

Was in Dubai recently. This kept running through my head, especially when touring the area of the rich!

[@mbeenz]

ManyThanx wow that’s incredible my Friend!!,!,

[@horstlauer5368]

in 1982 when i heard him first time, a friend mine doesnt share my love to his music.i saw my friend 30 years later and now hes n absolut fan from him too.timeless good music i will hear til i die

[@chrisjones649]

I was the same.....the boss say no more🍻

[@steffen8610]

kiss

[@jessevigor559]

best tune to ever come out of the 80's

[@fitless]

+Jesse Vigor it's pretty close. Listen to the 12' extended mix of "Race" by Yello.

[@jessevigor559]

Great video.. brought back some personal memories :) although Mr Rea still takes the trophy for me, he's a legend

[@ZeroMalarki]

Maybe slight overstatement but it's still a fucking good one

[@katemariano2324]

Heard him for the first time this year! Thanks to KZbin! Amazing I never heard him in the 90s.....but then no internet...

[@jeffreyhendricks807]

Fool if you think it's over! Rea is a greatly under rated over looked artist.

[@БогданЗавер]

Шедевр на века.

[@snelgrave101]

People that hit dis-like on this tune are experiencing a technological breakdown.

[@iankerridge5720]

Probably only heard part 2 before and missed the point of part1

[@c.blakerockhart1128]

Great punn.😎

[@valentinamelnik8886]

С этой песней хочется мчаться только в рай !!!

[@creepycomputer]

What a wonderful good song! I've listened to this song a few weeks ago. Man, all these cars in this video. It reminds me of a very gloomy monday morning to work in the great cities of the Netherlands. Chris Rea Rocks!!!

[@АлександрГалицин-д5ы]

Попадание в ДЕСЯТКУ - или МЫ или ОНИ, ОБРАТНОЙ ДОРОГИ НЕТ. РАЗУМ и РЕШИТЕЛЬНЫЕ ДЕЙСТВИЯ - ИНАЧЕ ТОЧНО БУДЕМ ТАМ. СПАСИБО БРАТ, КРИС - ЗА ПЕСНЮ - ОНА ПОМОГАЕТ ЖИТЬ И ПОБЕЖДАТЬ.

[@rickdavis3593]

And the perverted fear of violence chokes the smile on every face.........

[@rodsreel]

Wow so much atmosphere in one song - a real warning to us in society. Real music doing its thing. Engineer deserves a mention here. Cheers for the upload

[@tsuke2570]

it's one of my favorite song. every single verse overlaps w/ my bitter memory of crushing huge bubble economy in japan, which occurred 1990 and was just the begging of the road to hell for our country (we're still in it.). it really was like "all the roads jam up with credit and there's nothing you can do". "oh look out world, take a good look what comes down here" he precisely predicted whats gonna happen. love from tokyo.

[@thehellyousay]

One of the greatest songs I've ever heard. A warning. I wish more people listened

[@darkmage7280]

I'm not a religious man, but the one thing where science and religion meet, in my opinion, is this: Energy doesn't disappear. It merely changes shape. So all of us will never die. Our loved ones are with us and we're with them. Even if it's just a fallacy, it's a comforting one. And even then... why should death be the end of it all...? I simply can't believe it is. Why should the infinite, amazing universe bow down to something as trivial as death?

[@Sameoldfitup]

One of the all time great songs

[@grahampearson5283]

And one of the most appropriate as there are too many motorways with a reputation for being notorious.

[@macmafti1]

One of my favorite tracks from 1990's use to listen in my university days and decades later its still my favorite .

[@grahampearson5670]

There are many roads across Great Britain which are notorious and I'm not surprised that Chris wrote this song. The M6 around Keele in North Staffordshire has been notorious for accidents and many Manchester bound drivers should listen to this song and it may have to be included in "Royal Mail NDC the Musical!".

[@craigc5227]

One of the best singer/songwriters of our era.

Great singer and guitar player, like on the beach as well.

[@Виктория-г6г5с]

Another beautiful song from Chris Rea and perfect for my motorcycle tours around Germany

[@sloaneranger5684]

Blues with a modern twist, need more like this in a day and age where r & b is defined by more and more what I would call rap and pop artists who wouldn't know blues if they met it at a fabulous party. I know it's an 'oldie' but love it.

Even after almost 30 years this still stand as strong as ever

[@taylorr8551]

Still ahead of its time. Love the way Bjork dances on the trailer & her facial expressions are priceless. The decision to produce the video in B&W is genius as makes it timeless. I was at collage in 1993 & watched this over & over on TOTP & the Chart Show. 2538 views? Are you kidding me! Justin Vernon is one of the most amazing singers and songwriters, his lyrics are a reflection of so many rough and deep feelings.

[@kaveh-w-]

Thought this song came out in the 80s?

[@EternalTina]

What?
