Chris Rea

[Squarebear]

I didn't even realise pancreas removal was a thing - now, never mind forty years ago when his was removed.

 

[Pegojack]

Seemed like a very modest and likeable chap when he appeared as a guest on 'Gone Fishing' a few years ago. Sounded like he'd had major organs removed and living on borrowed time.
Not a fan of his music, but each to their own.
RIP Chris.

Ffs mun.

At least no one said he might be on the road to hell.

I detest his Driving Home song, it used to haunt / upset me on my drive home from work in Newport every bastard Christmas. Still hate hearing it today.

Only that Mariah Carey abomination and Whammaggeddon runs it close. Makes me physically gag.

RIP Chris.

Crosby, Bush.Wood and John.

Hell of a band.

Kate Bush is the only one I actually like. The others are merely tolerable.

Crimbo songs ought to be retired 20 years after their release date. For 20 years. Then they can be played again for a further 20 years, and so on. Keeps things fresh.

See also Bohemian Rhapsody.

Or any of Queen’s adolescent tripe.

Dear me I know everyone can’t be as joyful as me but there’s some miserable twats on here.

That's what I said to my wife.

Loved Elkie Brooks cover of ''Fool if you think it's over''

Absolutely Great song, And a few year back I would have actually put money on, that it was a 70's song by Elkie Brooks, I just listened to it, 5 mins ago, and for me it just sounds like a 70's song, but Wiki informs she released it 1982. For some reason, I don't even remember back in the day, Chris Rea actually singing it, always thought it was Elkie Brooks

R.I.P Chris Rea.
