Chris Rea - This Morning interview 1993

[@timetraveler759]

He made the important distinction between 'creative musicality' and 'showbiz'.

[@sarac.3259]

Yes. He is spot on when he says that interviews are about show business not music. Most of these interviewers know nothing at all about music. In the UK, there has not been a series on TV with a focus on actual music for many decades. Individual artistes or people - but, like Chris says, it's lifestyle not the music itself.

[@adamsdengu9698]

THIS IS ONE MAN WHO HAS PROVED BEYOND DOUBT THAT " ITS NICE TO BE IMPORTANT BUT IT'S MORE IMPORTANT TO BE NICE " - GREAT MUSIC GREAT PERSONALITY !!!

[@salligriffin2847]

I worked with Chris years ago. Lovely man x

[@ritamachia3354]

I find nothing more about him after his fall onstage in 2017. Do u know if it was another stroke? Loss of balance? Did he have to stop performing after that? I so love his work, and he's such a charismatic individual.

A Real artist. Love his music, and him as a person. He constantly creates..

[@Tj-ot4jp]

He does't want to be a rock star he just wants people to appreciate his brilliant music, sounds fair enough, iv'e got fool if you think it's over on 7" vinyl and followed him ever since.

[@laraoneal7284]

So adorable. So interesting and brilliant.

[@jrjohnson4986]

Excellent musician and his sultry vocals are incredible. I remember his first song on the pop charts when I lived in the Yakima valley in Washington.

[@charlesheaton3994]

Kermitefrog64, I am from the Tri-Cities myself. Been listening to Chris for 30+ years. He has a resemblance to my Mother's second husband.

Such a humble, sweet and unaffected musician...much like the wonderful Kate Bush. This sweet humbleness only makes them more adorable! But goodness, those two giggling fools on the couch...shame...poor Chris looked embarrassed! He was far more mature & composed than the two of them put together.

His song Fool(if you think its over) 1970 was edged by Billy Joel's I Love You Just The Way You Are 1975, in the Grammy's. I cant believe it. But we know what the Grammys are all about.

Chris has no pancreas, so he has to eat between 30-40 pills a day and take 2-3 injections. But he is managing his condition very well, and is completely healthy.

[@JuneLynn]

thanks for the info....I knew from another interview that he needs to take all of that medication....I'm just so glad that he's doing well.

[@ianholden7]

Honest down to earth

[@анатолийновиков-ж8д]

[@laraoneal7284]

He talks sounding somewhat like Tom Jones. He has so many complexities to his sensitive personality.

[@mddell58]

I often wonder if he (Chris) realizes how intelligent, & deep he is. I'd love to spend a day with him bouncing writing material back & forth.

[@sarac.3259]

He is a thinker. The thing is, intelligent, reflective people like Chris know that there is so much more to know and to understand - they see themselves as one ordinary guy in a massive universe. He is anything but ordinary! He will keep creating till the day he dies. A musician not a rock star.

@@chunkie412 There's two other great musicians who also hail from Middlesborough. One is ex- 'Free' and 'Bad Company' frontman Paul Rodgers (who also fronted 'Queen' for a few years) and 'Whitesnake' main man David Coverdale. As well as Chris Rea himself, I love the great, timeless music from all of those other acts, too. There may well be many other bands or solo artists from Middlesborough that I'm not even aware of. Perhaps some of you could enlighten me?
