Out of the millions and trillions of songs I have listened to over the past 60 years, Drivin Home, is up there with my favourites. Chris is a lovely guy and is as strong as a lion to have survived his illness.
-
Fantastic songwriter, superb performer (seen him live several times), survivor of terrible illness, and a modest and decent man. He's the sort of guy we SHOULD see as role models for young men and recieving honours in the queens honours list.
-
One of the most underrated and gifted musicians of our time. A musical genius that had the courage to follow his own path. It is pretty shameful that radio presenters don't play his songs enough, so afraid to step out of the commercial lane and explore real talent. An interesting interview from a humble GIANT of the music industry. May he one day appreciate the absolute pleasure he has brought to all of our lives.

Chris Rea is a musical genius. Never tire of his music. Been a fan for 40 years!

This is the best Chris Rea Interview ever made
-
I love this man. He is an earthly treasure. First time I'm seeing this interview. His forthrightness in all things, all subjects, is so very refreshing and wholesome. His path has been unusual; his humility and raw brilliance are rare. I listen to his music all day and never tire of it.

Always been a huge fan of Chris Rea. A genuine person and fabulous musician ❤️

Chris Rea where have you been all my life?! I’m a tremendous fan of Mark Knopfler, and have always been his number one fan for years. I heard one song by Chris Rea, Blue Cafe, and suddenly my entire world has changed! His music is incredibly moving and his songs bring fleeting memories of life! Chris Rea is by far the most talented musician, right up there with Mark Knopfler! Love his beautiful voice, could listen to him all day and night! Someone needs to tell him he is incredible!
-
A fantastic gentleman , his talent is tremendous.
-
A great example of a person with a gift.

September 7, 2022. We do know Chris Rea in the United States, and we have appreciated his talent through the decades. It's never too late to come to America to tour; he would get a strong reception!
-
Thank you for the music Chris, what an outstanding Artist you are and will remain
-
Pure Genius.. Songwriter..Composer.And need I say one of the Greatest Guitar players EVER. 🎼☮️👊
-
Love how he has almost no idea how good he is and how hutch he’s loved, I remember praying daily for his recovery when he was so ill. His voice and music is so distinctive and Road to Hell is a classic. When I hear Driving home for Christmas I know the holiday season is upon us. Please stay true to you Chris and may we have you with us for years to come.
-
I believe he's hugely underappreciated. Such a great, husky voice and unmistakable sound of his guitar, best of the best 💜
-
This man is a legend ..and a really great human being.
-
One of our treasures . . . .
-
They used to call him the poor man's Knopfler...this man has more touch and voice than a multitude of wankers I have come across in my 66 years...Thanks Chris and stay alive as long as you can mate...
