[@salvatoresikilacci8460]

The best male voice on earth. Accomplished, inspiring songwriter. Legend.

[@gizellearnott9731]

Never miss your chats love them so boy next door❤

[@KevinPetrusNL]

Underrated, however appreciated by many ❤

[@Michael-xj6qt]

What a nice man , Chris rea is, a gentleman

[@AlmostReady504]

"Fool if you think it's over" Is beautiful and timeless

[@gyorgyneharangvolgyi9888]

Sajnos , hogy befejezte pályafutását, de dalai és zenéje orokeletuek, halhatatlanok.

[@monticlassictv]

The fantastic Chris Rea who’s health through recent years hasn’t been kind to him . . Chris always wanted to be a big time pop star but never ever saw himself as a talented singer/songwriter but little did he know he was actually bigger than he gave himself credit for. He’s still one of my biggest singer song writing artists with such a beautiful haunting voice, god bless you Chris you are and still are the best mate.

[@jaggass]

After all he's been through he's still here.

[@miguelhenriques3308]

He didn't want be a pop star. He just loves music. And it's true... He has a bit of a inferiority complex

[@marykrill4469]

So humble, dropping those big names and not realising his own worth as a singer songwriter, he took me through the80's and he carries me on into 2024..love this man.

[@RamonRubio-m5d]

Chis rea. Without a. Doubt.hes one of the most underrated Musician.this man has the talent that any well known superstar you wanna name has and beyond...this guy is great . As a singer. As a musician. As. A song writer. You name it...he's a superstar in is own way...chis rea#1 all the way.!!!

[@AnzhelaGuseva]

Amazing, unbelievable, unreal talented dear Chris! God bless you and your family !!

[@nemo227]

I'm a fan and I'm 85. I think Chris is pretty perceptive about the human condition and his music does what music is supposed to do; it touches people emotionally.

[@johndillon5290]

I love his artist, such a talent and so underrated.

[@Miguel_and_The_Microbes]

the perfect musician

[@LeeAsh7]

Even in his twenties, Chris was a genius with lyrics. His words in "Fool If You Think it's Over", are so spot on of a teenage heartache. I'm from Memphis and I am very glad that Chris didn't give that tune to Al Green. No one at all could have presented it better than the wonderful writer.

[@SvetlanaAntoine-pr4gq]

Chris is my number one musician His songs mean so much to me❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mohamedharak2689]

one of the greatest artists of all time

[@lifeslessons9889]

[@zvijezdanas4427]

Absolutely the best musician, poet, guitarist ... his songs are unrepeatably beautiful. An extremely humble human being, I adore him.

[@LovellArt]

So true, soundtrack to my childhood. He can say a few words and paint such a mood or picture. Such a gem!

[@PazovackiPutnikGlobetrotter]

What a man. What a voice. Genius musician. Love him very much.

[@sandiland0000]

I respect his wishes… but he will never have an idea how much I loved his song Fool If You Think It’s over… it was sooooo intensely good. We wanted more of him here in the USA. Blessings to all.

I could listen to you all day...so down to earth 😊❤⚘

[@gizellearnott9731]

His lyrics all come from the heart❤ all brilliant

[@debbiedamato8340]

I wish he would have toured the U.S. I would have loved to see him in concert. What a talent!!! I can still sing Fool( If You Think It's Over ) word for word after all these years. It never gets old.

[@viorelpiscanu9425]

I have always admired Chris Rea! But how I know WHY!!! IT is more than HIS MUSIC! IT IS SIMPLY DUE TO THE FACT HE STILL KEEPS HIS HUMANITY WITHIN! 😊😊😊😊❤

This video was the highlight of my day. I am a huge fan of Chris Rea's music, and his speaking voice is just as calm and soothing to listen to. I was introduced to his music in the late 70's, and I'm still listening and enjoying his immense talent, or as he calls it, his creativity. Thank you for uploading this interview. I wish it had carried on for another hour or two.

Incredibly talented Guy ! Great singer and songwriter, with a very distinctive voice , and oh my , what a sublime slide guitarist !

[@hagar6359]

Fantastic musician and guy. I remember the local station in Middlesbrough playing his music regularly early in the morning. He has gone on to do what he wants to do, his own music, not pop, just fantastic blues music. I have most of his music, there's not much that isn't fantastic. I hope he stays fit for many more years

Another fascinating interview from the late 90's with the legendary Rock Star Chris Rea (Even though he wouldn't think so). Rea has one of the most instantly recognisable voice's and guitar playing styles in the music world. Thank you for posting.

[@dianamarie1652]

Iam sorry “fool, if you think it’s over” was not him because that song I love and makes me so happy when I hear it. I love his other work as well but fool, is my favorite! So relatable and true to life.

I'm an older (62) American 🇺🇲 woman who absolutely loves 'Fool if you think' & always thought Chris was American. 😃 Wow. I learned differently about twenty years ago. Love his writing, low voice, guitar 🎸 playing, etc. ❌ NO SCARF REQUIRED. (I have a feeling Chris hated wearing that scarf.) ✅ I'm a diabetec. Amazed how much Chris has gone through with his health. ♥️

[@olgahernan3752]

Me encantó esta entrevista, donde habla de sus inicios y como su esposa, lo anima a seguir adelante, cuando él ya estaba pensando en dejar la música, debido a las personas encargadas de su carrera, me encantó esta parte, y habla de cómo ,él platicaba todo, hacerca de sus problemas, de lo que tienen que pasar los músicos, con sus hijas Julia y Josephine, el lucho más que otros cantantes, pero lo logró y por mucho, su música es fantástica, incluso en su etapa de Bluesman, instrumental, baladas , toda su música es increíble, y aquí nos comparte un poco de su vida, gracias por compartir esta entrevista ❤🧡💛👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

such a fascinating insight ........shame its cut short. Born in the same year, I found Chris's music late in life as is so often the way with music. Someone introduced me and now it is my go-to when I need to self soothe despite having been a life long follower of Van Morrisons music.

Why is this recording made to look like really old footage, In places? It's totally unnesacery and unappreciated.

[@nancyblake1000]

He's very prickly and guarded - strange contrast to the sentimental candour of his music. Always thought he was Italian. He's so dour and lacking in any obvious Italian sensibility he probably is closer to some sort of Irish archetype . Interesting insight.
