Christie - Yellow River 1992

Christie - Yellow River 1992Top number 1 hit in UK in 1970

So long boy you take my place
got my papers I've got my bag
so pack my bags and I'll be on my way to yellow river

Put my gun down the war is won
fill my glass high the time has come
I'm going back to the place that I love to yellow river

Yellow river yellow river
it's in my mind and in my eyes
yellow river yellow river
it's in my blood it's the place I love
got no time for explanations got no time to lose
tomorrow night you'll find me sleeping
underneath the moon at yellow river

Cannon firelingers in my mind
I'm so glad that I'm still alive
and I've been gone for such a long time from yellow river

I remember the nights were cool
I can still see the waterpool
and I remember the girl that I knew from yellow river

Yellow river yellow river
it's in my mind and in my eyes
yellow river yellow river
it's in my blood it's the place I love
got no time for explanations got no time to lose
tomorrow night you'll find me sleeping
underneath the moon at yellow river

Yellow river yellow river
it's in my mind and in my eyes
yellow river yellow river
it's in my blood it's the place I love

I was 15 when that song came out and I begged my mom to take me to the record store so I could get it.I think it was the best record I ever bought. It's simply world class--the guitar have a gorgeous lead guitar, the chords, melody and vocals are just mesmerizing and that kick ass drummer

really puts the whole song over the top. Yeah--these impostesrs, these musical drop outs of today could never equal--alone rival this kind of musical genius. I'm glad to say I was part of that generation! Kenn

Jeff...it's wonderful!!!

[GINGERALER]

What a lame lipsync appearance. The dude on the right thinks he's in a heavy metal band or something. He needs to tone it down. This is 70's pop, not Bon Jovi.

Maravilhosos!

[daveo138]

This sounds identical to the original recording. Are they miming or what?!

[JettRink50]

Yes, what great songs they had back then.

[Lecieja]

I don' t like playback. :(

Go to Jeff Christie's website and check out the History of Yellow River video. It's terrific... an amazing story about how this song became a hit....

Does anyone remember the old group that sang this song in the 70's i met them at the local waltons store and they singed my record, the single that came out had a flip side called Song to Romondo? they were the best at singing this Yellow River Song....
