Chris de Burghs Satin green shutters is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written IMHO ,
Agreed🇨🇦👍🏻🇨🇦
Chris de Burgh is such a fabulous story teller and has been for decades. I have ssen him live a few times in the UK and he stays on stage for the whole session, performing solo mid concert. What a writer/performer. Thank you Chris.
Chris de burgh is a hidden charm pure GOLD all his albums are gold. Enjoy your videos. ❤
Fantastic love Chris de burgh ❤❤❤❤
you would enjoy the song The Tower off Spanish Train and other Stories album
The Tower and also Lonely Sky from that album always bring tears to my eyes. His songs are so incredible emotional. Both musically and lyrically. I almost avoid listening to Chris De Burgh these days because I just know he will make me break down and cry. There is great power in his songs. I really don't know how he does it. He is very unique.
Awesome album one of my favs.
Patricia THE STRIppER IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONG BY HIM
YES! Also I love “Lonely Sky” and “Where Peaceful Waters Flow” “The Painter”
Finally people who understand real music
🎉🎉🎉🎉Jedan jedini, prekrasan, njezan, emotivan, najbolji ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Chris DeBurgh was huuuuuge in Canada, long before Lady in Red. He would come to Ottawa from time to time and it was legendary how the audience would not leave when the concert was over. He would come back out for encore after encore and finally, come out with just his guitar and say, "What do you people want?" Well... sing until we all die of happiness. That's all. Try "The Tower," "Lonely Sky," "Every Drop of Rain," "High on Emotion," "Flying Home," "Satin Green Shutters," "Patricia the Stripper," "A Spaceman Came Traveling," "The Traveler." I see you have already done Don't Pay the Ferryman, and I'm sure I'm missing some wonderful songs, but this catalogue is a treasure trove... just delightful at every turn.
I’m so so glad you enjoyed this harri !! I’ve always said if Elton john had sang this song it would have been number 1 lol
I have been a fan of Chris deburgh since he released spainish train way back in the late 70s and have never understood why people didn’t buy more of his work! Great artist!,😊
Last year my girlfriend and I got married, listening to In a country churchyard as we entered the sermonyroom. ,,Where peacefull waters flow "is also one of Chis his gems, best wishes Hendrik- P from the Netherlands
I have been a fan of CHRIS DE BURGH SINCE 1977 HE HAS PUT OUT A NEW ABLUN EVERY YEAR SINCE 1977 EVERY YEAR, you should check out: UP HERE IN HEAVEN, love your channel and music choices, well done
Chris never toured in the United States. He made some appearances when his song Lady in Red was a hit in the middle 80's. But in Europe he is HUGE!
He did tour Canada, and I was able to see that concert. This is a beautiful song.
Check out "The Girl With April in Her Eyes", one of my favorites from him. Beautiful and sad.
I've been blessed to have seen him on 3 occasions, once on consecutive nights. Glad he toured in Canada.
I've seen him 4 times. Twice in Toronto, once in Ottawa and a couple of years ago in Orillia. He never disappoints.
Might have been at the same concerts. First time was in Toronto, enjoyed it so much, scrambled and got seats the next night in Hamilton. Then again on his next tour to Toronto years later. So enjoyable
He loved Newfoundland & Labrador and played here over and over and over. Bought him a beer at a pub and he gave me an autographed photo back stage ! I have that on my wall to this day ....Peace and Love
This track was on his third album, 'At The End Of A Perfect Day'.
Most of Chris' songs were album tracks - the only real single that was released was "Lady in Red" which got way too much airplay back in the day. I love this song, and it would make a lovely wedding song.
This was the song that I walked down the aisle to when I got married
More chris de burgh please Harri!
one of my favorite albums
I've never heard this song but it's so sweet, the only thing I have ever heard by him is Ferryman
Lady in Red
@@bobbyscott5162 I'll check it out thanks 👍
@@debbiemickelson5448 check out his album "The Getaway". "Don't Pay the Ferryman" was released on this album. There are a good mix of songs; some fast, some slow, hopeful & worried, sad & joyous, and peaceful & frantic. I found each of the songs to be wonderful.
Try Ship to Shore ... and Borderline
Pure talent!!!
An awesome chorus, to be sure. I've always thought this song was missing a verse or three to fill the gap between the wedding day and the cemetery headstone visit. Chris could've put the couple's kids playing in the churchyard, included their daughter's wedding day there, too, and even had the couple praying together there when they found out she was terminal. It could've been a Harry Chapin-esque classic ... alas! Good request!
J.K. I disagree with you a little there. I think the fact that he only includes the start and the finish allows us, the listener, to fill in the gaps ourselves. Look at the detail you went into yourself.
Although who won't want a longer version of such a beautiful song.
Check out “Borderline” - beautiful De Burgh track
I have never heard this...it is beautiful!!!
Listen to Satin Green Shutters
Listen to Spanish train, and the best that love can be
I got Chris De Burgh's "Best Moves" album that came out before "The Lady in Red". The "Best Moves" album is well named and included this song as well as many others I treasure.
Try I'm counting on you...C de B from the getaway album probably one of best albums of albums of all time.. beautiful memories, beautiful reactions
Wait till you hear "Lonely Sky". You've earned a subscriber 👍
He is the best. I have been listening to him since 1989. No words describe his songs. Listen to Lonely Sky
listen to satin green shutters
chris de burgh is a real storyteller seen him 4 times live in the nederlands realy amazing
CDB is a great storyteller. "Patricia The Stripper" should be next. Little bit "different" than the others. Will not regret..
Please check out "Living On The Island". Besides a nice song, it has some great bass playing in it.
The lyrics are actually from an old English poem by Thomas Gray. And the song did break top forty
At least that is what I have gathered from Wikipedia. It’s tied up with a work called “Eulogy”
Harri, please give Crusader or Revolution a try. Either will blow you away. Great music. Great history all rolled into one.
other favourites of mine: Crusader (this is a three piece song), Spaceman came travelling, Spanish Train, The Traveller, Revolution
Yeah for some reason Chris has been pretty much unnoticed here in North America. Most people only know Lady in Red, or maybe Don’t Pay the Ferryman. Which aren’t even close to being his best songs
Let me look for something you might not have heard
Damn , can’t share it to you directly. Search “The Words I Love You “ the Iranian collaboration
I'm guessing the last verse implies that the man is now a widower, and the grave he visits is the grave of his wife
you should listen to the crusader. Amazing
This was not a hit Harri, Chris mostly just released albums.
You really need to see some of his early live performances from the 80’s/90’s. He is truly one of the most underrated artists EVER (IMO).
For example, “The Revolution Trilogy” was Chris’s attempt to “make a song come alive in the head, like a movie”. I will post a link in the reply. It’s a bit of a masterpiece.
Also try to explore his Munich & Dublin concerts of the 80’s. Just astounding. Thanks 🙏🏻

I agree about him being underrated. Probably because he had a massive hit with the song Lady In Red they wrote him off as a schmaltzy one hit wonder. To me he's one of the best singer songwriters out there.
He was / is an under rated talent. I think because he doesnt have much COOL about him . He dont have much of the rolling stones appeal, or, Billy Idol, Or, Elvis or tom Jones. Great righting ability and voice.
You would have loved to be it the song of the times, but that wasn't the case. Times were different back then. Hard to say. His songs, back then, were kind of a throw-back.
Hi Harri
You're right, he is a lyrical genius, Chris and Tracy Chapman are on opposite sides of the musical storyteller coin
For stories by Chris dd Burgh You should listen to The Traveller, Crusader, or any if his trilogies The leader, the vision, what about me: Revolution, Light a fire, Liberty; Even Mirror of the Soul is pretty good. Even when you get through those there are loads more brilliant stories he has created that i think you'd like.
Sorry, but the 2nd verse for me disclassifies it as a wedding song. Maybe great for a silver wedding anniversary. I love this as a beautiful song as it is!
Harri .he put out 3-4 brilliant albums in a row but never got his due....never. Peace and Love
Spanish Train was his biggest hit until Lady in Red came along............many great tunes on many albums between.sad actually :(
It was never a big hit. Chris a guy who makes a few big hits, like Lady in Red, or Don’t Pay the Ferryman. His best stuff however, is saved for his true fans. Check out “Song for Rosanna” his daughter
And don’t even touch “No Borderlines” unless you have a bunch of tissues handy
