Podcast appearances and mentions of Chris de Burgh

This week on The Metro, Rev. Jeff Ivins brings you the following bands for your weekly time trip to the 1980s: The Go Go’s, Billy Idol, Fischer-Z, Pseudo Echo, Trio, Suburban Lawns, ABC, Glass Tiger, Chaka Khan, Blondie, Chris De Burgh, Kate Pierson, Missing Persons, and finishing off with Musical Youth.

After 50 years in show business, Chris de Burgh came into studio to share with listeners the wisdom he has acquired in those decades. The chat covered what he's learned about vulnerability, fame, failure, creativity and history.

What's up, dudes? Remember Band Aid and its mega-hit “Do They Know It's Christmas?” It spun off countless relief efforts, including Carol Aid 1985. Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas introduced me to this concert, and he's here to talk about its MTV and Music Box broadcast!Carol Aid was a famine relief concert held at the club Heaven in London. MTV and Music Box aired a cut down version, leaving out several acts. In fact, the likes of Magnum, Captain Sensible, and Miquel Brown (to name a few) were cut for time. It's quite unbelievable.Cliff Richard kicked off the broadcast version with “Another Christmas Day,” while John Parr sang “Once in Royal David's City.” Meanwhile, the Fixx pressed for donations and sang “Peace On Earth,” a hidden track from their following album. Subsequently, the event ended with the entire roster singing “Do They Know It's Christmas?” rather heartily.Chris De Burgh? Check. Anita Harris? She was there. Toto Coelo and the Flying Pickets? Got them too, though we have no idea what they sang. So grab your oversized checks, put on your red beret, and jam out to “Carols from Heaven” and Carol Aid 1985!Sounds of ChristmasFB: @SOCMusicTwitter: @SOCMusicIG: @socmusicGive us a buzz!

Todos llevamos máscaras en esta vida para intentar ocultar aquella realidad de nosotros que nos disgusta. Algunos aparentan autosuficiencia, otros buscan compasión. Unos se esconden bajo una supuesta frialdad intelectual, otros bajo un aspecto físico, o una pretendida indiferencia. Y hay quien ha desarrollado tal esquizofrenia que asume un papel diferente, según dónde o con quién se encuentre. Ciento veinticinco años después, el personaje que se hizo Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) se sigue confundiendo con su persona. Cuando comienza a trabajar en un periódico de Kansas City, Hemingway deja de ir a la iglesia, a pesar de las recriminaciones de su madre. Comienza a escribir relatos y disfruta de la pesca, pero está obsesionado con su virilidad –siempre cuestionada por una madre que le viste de niña, como si fuera gemelo de su hermana Marcelline, mientras trata a su marido como un pelele–. El escritor intenta alejarse de ella, pero cuando tiene problemas, vuelve constantemente a buscar su ayuda, como hacía con otras figuras maternales a lo largo de su vida. Hemingway se marcha voluntario a Italia con la Cruz Roja en la Primera Guerra Mundial. Allí tiene un desengaño sentimental con una enfermera en un hospital de Milán –como los protagonistas de "Adiós a las armas"–, cuando es ingresado por una herida de mortero. En casa es recibido como un héroe, pero acaba exagerando tanto lo que allí pasó, que cuesta ya distinguir las mentiras de la realidad. No tardará en abandonar el Oak Park de su infancia, pero Oak Park nunca le abandonará a él. En este programa de radio "Al Trasluz" escuchamos fragmentos del libro "Adiós a las armas", leído por Eugenio Barona, así como escenas de la película de Richard Attenborough, "En el amor y la guerra" (1986), sobre los años de juventud del escritor. Las canciones que acompañan el relato tienen, todas ellas, relación con la historia. Cita a Hemingway: el cantante británico Chris De Burgh, nacido en Argentina y nacionalizado irlandés (It´s Me - An I´m Ready To Go 1997); la cantante de country Juice Newton (I´m Dancing As Fast As I Can 1982); así como la neoyorquina Lana del Rey (Religion 2015). La música que suena de fondo son de las bandas sonoras de la película "En el amor y la guerra" por George Fenton y la miniserie de televisión de HBO sobre Hemingway y su esposa Martha Gellhorn por Javier Navarrete, así como la suite dedicada al escritor por Bill Lorraine. El diseño sonoro, la realización y las mezclas son de Daniel Panduro, el texto y la narración de José de Segovia.

Part 2 with keyboard magic-dust provider, ~Andy Richards with more hits, more number ones (including a potential 2 more to make the full 10).And so much brilliant 80s pop…5. GEORGE MICHAELAn opportune meeting, a Sunday afternoon session and more immortality as Andy works with George on the iconic Careless Whisper. A later session with David Cassidy (on yet another top 10 smash) allows him the opportunity to work with George again.6. PET SHOP BOYSA triple whammy of number one singles between July 87 - April 88 as Andy works on It's a Sin, Always on my Mind and Heart (which he also produces). Not forgetting more hits in Suburbia and Rent as well as working on the Actually album.Later he works on the Liza Minelli album, Results (produced by the Pets) ‘resulting' in another top 10 hit in Losing My Mind.Comparisons are made between working with Liza and Dusty Springfield (who he produced on her Reputation album).7. CHRIS DE BURGHFrom the great experience working on the sublime pop of the Pets to the more problematic cheesy monobrow of The De Burgh.Another massive number one single with The Lady In Red (with a little help from George Michael) but at some cost.Despite the experience (and like mothers forgetting the pain of childbirth) Andy returns and works on another top 3 hit in Missing You. Plus discussion at the end on where else George Michael appears in the ARoeuvre.8. PREFAB SPROUTAndy produces the wonderful “Hey Manhattan!” By The Sprouts from their From Langley Park To Memphis album.Discussion on Paddy's views of the track (and why he is wrong, bless the little genius).9. PRODUCINGAs well as being the keyboard maestro go-to guy, Andy also produced many artists in the 80s.Here we go through some of them, from less successful experiences (Berlin) to yet more chart success with Fuzzbox and Holly Johnson. 10. MISCELLANEOUS80s odd and sods including the start of his film/TV work and a chance to mop up any other  hits worked on, including a potential 10th number one (Foreigner's I Want To Know What Love Is being the potential 9th). THE 80SOGRAPHY QUICKFIRE ROUNDAnd why not.For more on Andy - andyrichards.comTo help fund the pod or say hi - 80sography@gmail (PayPal)Vaughn George.

We're just gonna carry on as if there's not been a massive gap in our scheduling, and everything's completely normal, right? Denim and Leather are BACK! Our unexpected hiatus means we have a LOT to catch up on, which means no Kerrang this week- if you regularly tune in for info on all your Classic 80s metal faves you might want to skip this one (but also, what the fuck, are you OK?). In the meantime it's our usual bullshit: Chris De Burgh is cyberstalked, we meet Instagram royalty and complain about how hot Florida is. More arguments about Ghost! Tetchy cinema interactions. Cancellations aplenty. Can we possibly afford a pair of hazmat suits? Also this is now a Golden Girls fan Pod. You OWE YOURSELF the chance to enjoy Can I Pod With Madness!   Our ad this week is for The @AlbumNerds Podcast Recorded 8th November 2024

We covered the big commercial hit album "Brothers In Arms" back in episode 154, but many afficianados of Dire Straits consider their finest work to be the album that preceeded this one.  Love Over Gold is their fourth studio album, released in late September 1982 and on the charts in June 1983.  For this album, prime mover and lead vocalist Mark Knopfler, bassist John Illsley, and percussionist Pick Withers are joined by new members Hal Lindes on guitars and Alan Clark on keyboards.  The songs on this album are longer than your standard single, particularly the majestic 14-minute "Telegraph Road."  Despite their length, "Private Investigations" was released as a single in the UK and reached number 2on the charts.  The shortest song, "Industrial Disease" (still clocking in at 5:50) was released as a single in the US.  It would reach number 75 on the Billboard Hot 100, but would be a staple of rock radio stations at the time.A number of songs were written and recorded during the "Love Over Gold" sessions, but subsequently discarded from album release.  Amongst these was the song "Private Dancer," which was instead provided to Tina Turner for her comeback album of the same name.   Turner would take this song to number 7 on the US charts, and see her career reinvigorated by the success of her "Private Dancer" album."Love Over Gold" was a number 1 album on a number of charts, including Australia, Austria, and the UK, and reached number 19 on the US Billboard 200 albums chart.Rob brings us this outstanding, deep, and thought-provoking album for this week's podcast.Telegraph RoadThis lengthy masterpiece was inspired while Knopfler was riding in his tour bus down the 70-mile road of the same name.  The song narrarates the development and history along the road as the decades roll past.  It is easy to describe this song as prog rock, but it also contains one of the best guitar solo riffs you will hear. Industrial DiseaseGoodness me, goodness me!  We have to highlight the US single from the album.  The title comes from a term for work-related illness, and the term in this song references both individual work illness and the decline of British industry in general.  The reference to Dr. Parkinson is a British professor and satirist who is famous for the phrase "work expands to fill the time available for its completion." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Overture to the Marriage of Figaro by Mozart (from the motion picture “Trading Places”)Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd star in this comedy about a yuppie and a homeless man who are forced to trade places as the result of a bet by two rich stock brokers.   STAFF PICKS:Murder By Numbers by The PoliceBruce initiates the staff picks with a dark song about becoming a serial killer.  This Police song appears on the cassette and CD version of the album "Synchronicity," but was left off the vinyl due to lack of space.  It was written by Sting and Andy Summers, the only collaborative song on the album, and was recorded in a single take.  Rock of Ages by Def LeppardLynch brings us a huge song from Def Leppard's "Pyromania" album.  Producer Mutt Lange counts off the nonsensical "Gunter Glieben Glauten Globen," to open the song, and the lyrics form an anthem suitable for arena show openers.  Joan Jett's "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" was an inspiration to the creation of this anthem.Don't Pay the Ferryman by Chris deBurghWayne's staff pick takes a fantasy approach to the story of Charon and the crossing of the river Styx, advising not to pay until the trip is done.  Irish artist Chris deBurgh broke into the US top 40 with this song, peaking at number 34.  Lines from Shakespeare's play "The Tempest" can be heard in the bridge to the song.The Walls came Down by The Call Rob finishes the staff picks with a song that is inspired by the Biblical tale of the fall of Jericho.  Lead singer Michael Been would pull biblical references into his lyrics, including this song.  The Call formed in 1980 in California, and blended rock, New Wave, and post-Punk.  U2 and Simple Minds both consider The Call an influence in their music. COMEDY TRACK:My Bologna by "Weird Al" YankovicWe close out with Weird Al's meaty take on "My Sharona by" the Knack.

We're going where the sun shines brightly,We're going where the sea is blue…1986 really was very Cliff. He had celebrated his first No1 of the 80s with the cast of The Young Ones, featured in some devastating billboard action in the (rerun) finale of the aforementioned BBC comedy show, been covered by the TVam rat and gerbil, and even had one of his most famous songs feature on a rather unique (and quite frankly ghastly) novelty Euro hit. And in July of the very same year, this very prominent track (it's Summer Holiday folks!), Cliff's ubiquitous seasonal anthem to double decker buses and Una Stubbs, was sitting proudly as track 1 side 2 on the latest NOW, That's What I Call Music album.But wait!The gloriously designed blue sky and beach umbrella that housed the latest variously compiled pop selection was not to feature such 1986 chart toppers as Wham!, Dr and the Medics and Chris De Burgh(!). This wasn't the impending 7th volume of the (rapidly becoming) world famous series of compilations, this was NOW - The Summer Album, and it was…well, different.Just as the wonderful team had done in November 1985 with NOW - The Christmas Album, here was the brand's second venture into a ‘theme'. And what a theme it was! Four decades of summer anthems, summer hits, sizzling memories - phew what a scorcher!But as it transpires, with guest Tim Worthington, we discover that the album announced from the pages of Smash Hits in July 1986 (featuring the most summery of acts, The Jesus and Mary Chain!) was much more than that just sun loungers and factor 30. Because growing up in the 70s/80s in the UK summer was often quite different indeed!What NOW - The Summer Album perhaps did do, was provide a template of summers we all wished we'd known; a sixties summer of love, a fifties summer of rock n roll, a seventies summer of…cricket (?) and of course an eighties summer of Radio One roadshows, and quite probably, traffic jams.It was an album that also provided a range of genres, new bands from the past to discover and a template for all summer soundtracks to come.So, dive back into an iconic chapter in the NOW series. Find out how some VERY big pop names appeared (TWICE!), why sound effects always make summer songs better, how some songs were longer (and shorter!) than others and why John Menzies probably didn't anticipate how well this summer set would sell.And importantly, remember your Plymouth dealer is, indeed, a dealing man.

Join us in this episode as we uncover the captivating story behind the iconic track "Lady in Red" by the renowned artist Chris de Burgh. With a global album sales record exceeding 40 million, Chris de Burgh's journey from his international upbringing to his musical breakthrough is a tale of resilience and passion.Born in Argentina to a diplomat father, Chris de Burgh's childhood traversed diverse landscapes, from Malta to Nigeria and Zaire. Settling in Ireland during his formative years, he discovered his musical talent while performing for guests at the family's transformed castle hotel.Despite his initial pursuit of language studies at the esteemed Trinity College, Dublin, Chris eventually followed his heart into the world of music. Overcoming early challenges, his career gained momentum, marked by a significant milestone as the opening act for Supertramp's 1974 tour.The turning point arrived in the 1980s when the European audience embraced his music, culminating in the release of the timeless ballad "Lady in Red" in 1986. Inspired by his first encounter with Diane, his future wife and mother of his children, the song immortalizes the essence of love and the ongoing commitment required to cherish one's partner.Tune in to delve into the emotional journey behind this legendary song, exploring the highs and lows of Chris de Burgh's life and the enduring legacy of "Lady in Red" that continues to captivate audiences across generations.

We're back under the Metal Hammer this week as we take a look at a pre Seventh Son of a Seventh Son Iron Maiden. They're in a reflective mood (doing promo for their video 12 Wasted Years) but that leads us to talk Tiswas, Going Live, Live and Kicking and CD:UK. Along the way we get sidetracked by Stephen King, Mr Blobby, You and Me (Duncan the Dragon vs Cosmo and Dibs), Casper's Brainy Book and various other nostalgic reminiscences.   We discuss the pros and cons of Live albums and once again Chris De Burgh raises his head. Well it is still Halloween, technically.    Elsewhere we've got Loudness (a Japanese band interviewed by a German journalist, in English, which somehow goes without a hitch), Marillion (in a less than stellar live review, which nevertheless points the way forward for Bruce Dickinson's solo career), The Great Kat (exhorting us to worship her or die) and Paul Di'Anno (talking Frank Sinatra and sexy robots).   Recorded 26 October 2023  

This morning, Matt Dyson treated the team to a special Lewis Capaldi song. AND Dave had some trouble whilst trying to give away some merch...

This week on The Metro, Rev. Jeff Ivins celebrates Halloween with the following artists: Dalbello, The Psychedelic Furs, Michael Sembello, Rockwell, Human League, INXS, The Boomtown Rats, ABC, Dead Can Dance, Bauhaus, Pat Benatar, Talking Heads, Tim Curry, and finishes off with a classic Chris De Burgh.

Anyone who has ever seen Danielle Walker, becomes a fan. If you're yet to witness this award winning comedian, you're about to become one too… Danielle has a way of telling stories that are both hilarious and full of heart. Her stand up show Nostalgia won big awards, she was the winner of the first season of Taskmaster, and is starring in her first acting role in Gold Diggers, a new comedy on ABC. A big part of Danielle's comedy is her family, and her childhood growing up in Far North Queensland with a bunch of other great storytellers. So it's no surprise that she tells some cracking yarns.

Anyone who has ever seen Danielle Walker, becomes a fan. If you're yet to witness this award winning comedian, you're about to become one too… Danielle has a way of telling stories that are both hilarious and full of heart. Her stand up show Nostalgia won big awards, she was the winner of the first season of Taskmaster, and is starring in her first acting role in Gold Diggers, a new comedy on ABC. A big part of Danielle's comedy is her family, and her childhood growing up in Far North Queensland with a bunch of other great storytellers. So it's no surprise that she tells some cracking yarns.

When I heard my guest, Rob Walch, singing on his podcast, I knew I had to have him on my podcast!  He jokes about how bad his singing is and shared a pretty funny story about him trying his hand at karaoke!  Rob loves the entire Chris De Burgh collection. So, I love that Rob chose the song "Don't Pay the Ferryman" by Chris De Burgh.  Rob discovered Chris De Burgh in the 80's, while folding pizza boxes at Satelite Pizza, and it's stuck with him throughout his life.  You see, Satelite Pizza had MTV, and Rob's house didn't.  You could rest assured after Rob's shift there were plenty of boxes ready for the next day's orders. Rob had just finished reading "The Clash of the Titans" and couldn't believe this song was singing about the Ferryman!!  Rob was hooked right then and there and checked out all music by Chris De Burgh.  Now, this wasn't something he was bragging to his bros about in high school, but he sure would share it with the ladies to show his softer side.  Full Show Notes

Was haben Chris de Burgh und Halloween gemeinsam? Die Antwortet lautet Irland - die grüne Insel und Heimat von Guiness und gälischer Sprache, von allen US-Techkonzernen, die etwas auf sich (oder ihre Steuervermeidungsstrategie) halten und natürlich auch Geburtsland von Oscar Wilde... und Irland ist Ursprung von Halloween. Ein Fest, das eng mit Jack O´Lantern verbunden ist, aber auf keltische Ursprünge zurückgeht.
