I actually wrote a musical based around this song. While Patricia is the main character, much of the story centres around a newspaper vendor called Simon, who has a troublesome brother called Dennis and a sister named Maude. Simon goes out with a woman named Patricia and it turns out that he knows Patricia is a burlesque queen. The story is set in 1924 and is set in either London, Dublin, Paris or Berlin, depending on which way the viewer sees it.
thank you!!!! very good video !!!!!! in 1975 a listen to that song in 1985 i strip to that song now 2011 married with children now only dreams about that song !!!:) life is good xxxxx
I was a preteen at boarding school in South Africa when this song was all the rage... I had NO IDEA what a stripper was then, but loved de Burghs voice and enthusiasm. This song, the Spanish Train, and Pink Floyd's We Don't Need No Education were banned here, but we still got to hear them and sing them when teachers weren't around...
haha my mums called Patricia, and she absolutely hates this song, we used to wind her up as kids singing it, knew it word for word, still do and she still hates it haha, it’s her own fault, was forced to listen to him on our many car journeys

David Breden Lady in Red was written when he was living in Gozo Our Sister Island, Our Flag is red and White, the song is dedicated to all Maltese and Gozitan Girls.... we simply love wearing Red !
Bianca Mari` I worked with a lovely Maltese lady in 85 in Colchester, Josephine, married to George who was in the RAF. I cant remember their surname, may have been Hayward, or something like that. I just dont think its one of his better songs, suffered from overplay
This song's a great idea, but it doesn't quite get there. It would have worked better with a more defined construction at each chorus, it fails to rise when it should, resulting in two lines on the same notes / melody, and loses the chance of greater impact. I long realised it can be adapted to achieve this though.
I haven’t heard this song in 30 years and still can remember every word in the chorus word for word. 😀
Same the but I know the entire song!
Me too 😅
@@leighchristopherson2455 me too 😅

Same here and I'm French so I'm surprised the words are still in my brain. :)
This concert was the best ... love every bit of it ... ty Dave Hunter ... Had a blast ... miss you and love you forever . Ri p my friend

Don't Pay the Ferryman is my favorite Chris de Burgh song.
Abig hello from Canada. 😎🇨🇦🥂
MIne too! I am also from Canada!
I love all of Chris's songs, but this has to be the best one out of all of them.
I'd forgotten how good Chris de burg is.hes brilliant
This is one of my favourites of all time. in a league of its own...
Saw him preform at Massey Hall in Toronto in 1980. I still remember all the lyrics of all his songs.
I saw him in Montréal but I think it was in 82 or 83.

David Breden yes I agree, but it still was dedicated to us.overplay because it was nice for those times :)
