  • super songs.....

  • Jeff Beck, Mark Knopfler and Chris Rea. The three greatest guitarists to ever walk the planet.

  • Hey Chris! If you ever come back to the States, please, please come to Pittsburgh, PA! I'd love to see you in concert!! :)

  • This is the letterman band that really rocked. Antoine Figg on drums.. that guy is the best drummer. Will Lee is a total douche but he can play. I canb't remember the guitar players name, but he was fantastic.. so versatile.. then Dave went to cbs and got some dorky band... geez all those extra people suck.

  • Road to Hell or Highway to Hell or even a Goat Track to the ante-room for the delusion you choose which is Hades some people rebel (Thank Yod Hod & God) (Snicker) & those that love freedom keep enough of their soul free so as to be able to tell the god of this world exactly where he can shtick his twisted heaven\hell retirement village for losers who bow & instead they go stand out in the darkness & wait for the star to go BANG & for Christ to find them in the post supernova fire!

  • Chris has been a highly underrated artist. His songs in the eighties and early nineties were great. His slide guitar playing is top notch. I was highly influenced by him and Mark Knopfler. If you want, click MrAlvarda down below and check my songs.

  • If someone asked him to lipsync he'd probably walk away. He doesn't do lipsync. I know he did once, just once. He will never do it again. So any talkshow that might be pondering the thought would just have to can it. Cause he wouldn't do it.

    I see his older videos & it is obvious how much his illnesses have stolen from his youth. But they couldn't steal his love of music his passion to play. He's a real fighter & has many things he wants to explore with his music. You go Chris. Love you man

  • SLIDE MASTER

  • @Perroloco00 That's right. He is considered, by most, and more importantly most guitarist to be the best slide guitar master on the planet today. Such a humble, kind hearted, loving family man. Being struck with so many life threatening illnesses has made him appreciate and cherish each and ever moment for how precious it really is.

    He's a soft spoken man that just happens to have a very deep voice, which truely make him incredibly sexy.

  • Love this version... which appears to be real (not lip sync). One of the greatest guitar solos.

  • The blond guy is so bad!!! He needs to calm down and swallow his gum.

  • Crimen Sollicitationis

  • I always thought this song was from leoard cohen, ha!

  • I sure wish he'd do a tour of the USA. If Leonard Cohen can do it, so can Chris Rea!

  • this is the best version what i ever heard in my life!!!!!!

  • @TheKowic ...little to fast for me!!!!...

  • I thought I heard a 3rd guitarist in there.  He comes into view at about 1:30. Loved and love this performance!

  • I never thought red & white strat would look so cool....with Chriss Rea it looks so damn cool.

  • Letterman had been making comments about this song for weeks and then Chris rea finally came on to sing this epic song lol

  • One of my favs

  • chris rea for the rockroll hall of fame !!!

  • Alweys Great Song....Chris alweys Great Star

  • HE IS A MASTER OF GUITAR !!!

  • Amazing sound! Great song ever (:

  • Amazing sound and playing!

  • who is the drummer? shame on the keyboard player the he wants to be the boss and not listening the others...

  • The drummer is Anton Fig.

  • One of the BESTS songs ever

  • One of the best - EVER!

  • I dont understand why people would listen to Lady Gaga and crap when legends like Chris Rea are there!

  • This song - and in particular this performance - ROCKS !!!

  • the legend lives on

  • best song ever, great performance. back track is little loud by I kinda like it.

  • Ya think there is a real message in the lyrics to?

  • the whole performance is ruined by the backing band playing the song too heavy, especially the guitarist nearest the camera. Chris's playing is superb but it's lost in the the band's efforts to play this like a metal song.

  • A great song, though i prefer the tempo of the recorded version.

  • You have great videos!

  • What tuning is this in?

  • good footage, you can see how he's doing the solos. and he also looked his best at the time ;)

  • It's very good solo-guitar Fender Stratocaster! Chris Rea - forever!!!

  • Nice slide guitar, and rhythm guitar is cool too...

  • Chris rea !!!! your the man ... ohh men what a guitar solo at the beginning and the end. fabulous. nice how he puts the pick in the guitar at 3:27

  • NOTE ! THIS IS ROAD TO HELL -Pt 2 Well I'm standing by the river But the water doesn't flow It boils with every poison you can think of And I'm underneath the streetlight But the light of joy I know Scared beyond belief way down in the shadows And the perverted fear of violence Chokes the smile on every face And common sense is ringing out the bell This ain't no technological breakdown Oh no, this is the road to hell
  • And all the roads jam up with credit

    And there's nothing you can do

    It's all just pieces of paper flying away from you

    Oh look out world, take a good look

    What comes down here

    You must learn this lesson fast and learn it well

    This ain't no upwardly mobile freeway

    Oh no, this is the road

    Said this is the road

    This is the road to hell

  • Cudowny głos, cudowna solówka gitarowa. W Road To Hell Chris jest najcudowniejszym mężczyzną na świecie, Uwielbiam Jego czarne włosy,

  • I have seen him first on the road to hell tour in 1990. It was fantastic.

    After that i have seen him 10 times and he is getting better every time.

    God Bless Chris !!!

  • suuuuuuuuuuuuper

  • Chris Rea rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Absolutely awesome. Always genial.

  • This is a artist I want to see live before I die

  • He is soooooo brilliant.... saw him in Amsterdam last year. Nice memories!! This song and looking for the summer. And the instrumental part was also great

  • vintage chris rea, a legend

  • I love !!!^^

  • 401k, Roth IRA, Mutual Funds , Stocks, those are worthless pieces of paper flying away from you and always will be, get out of them, with the nut jobs we still have in congress bailing out the banks and auto companies and all the business that aint worth crap do you really think we will ever dig out of this mess? think again, Rea says it all here, sometimes I think tax evaders are the smart ones, do you really think the govt spends wisely? think again

  • He was blonde when he was younger? I guess he got tired of having all the fun.

  • This guy is awesome -- My favorite song has to be "Texas" (lol, should be, since I live there!) Thanks for posting this version of Road to Hell.

  • Chris kicks ass, I've loved his music since the first time I heard his song "Texas" playing on the truck radio. Nice video, Lily!

  • plm misto :)

  • Man, this guy realy has a nice voice!!

  • bonne musique, vrai musicien, un vrai son rock comme il en existe peu de nos jours...

  • katse kala komati... ola ta lefta

  • When did he start dying his hair and beard black?

  • chris rea getting better by the minute.This is the guy, his voice is blessed by god.Congratulations man.

  • How.. on earth.. this became stereo out of nowhere when it was in mono? And, how are the rythm guitars and piano louder? Did you reload the video with dsp effects? :(, It's messed up now, what happened here?

  • you obviously have an ear for sound. Although you seemed to have missed the most important bit. It was still awsome.

  • I LIKE IT

  • Absolute quality,cheers for sending me this John

  • nice

  • He is soooo goood....!!! Two thumbs up!

    Check his Blue Guitars. Absolutely out of this world..!

  • one of the greatest singers ever!!!!!

    my respect!!!

  • Huh, I gotta rephrase, They aren't good, they are the best.

    Living proof that music doesn't have to be complex to be awsome to the max.

    Youtube should enable 6 stars option for these because it doesn't fit with other 5 stars around.

    And I though I'd never say this, but I'd give my ass to play with this dudes. Anytime, Anyplace, Anysong.
