THE CHRISTIANS
United Kingdom
Registrace 2. 11. 2010
THE CHRISTIANS burst onto the music scene in the late 80's with their debut album, THE CHRISTIANS, (which still remains Island Records' highest selling debut album) which contained no less than 7 singles including Forgotten Town, Ideal World, Born Again, Hooverville ... the band's second album COLOUR knocked Phil Collins off the Number One slot in 1991 and the band went on to enjoy years of UK European success with Words, Father and other hits from subsequent album HAPPY IN HELL.
Lead singer GARRY CHRISTIAN still sounds as good today as he did back then and the band are constantly touring as well as being invited to appear at many prestigious festivals where they have a reputation for performing a belting set packed full of the hits that bring back pure happiness and nostalgia to the crowd.

NAZ DON'T CRY by THE CHRISTIANS

#FreeNazanin
Released December 15th 2021
It was when the subject came up chatting with fans after a gig years ago that THE CHRISTIANS lead singer Garry Christian first thought about how the band might help in the plight of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and her unjust imprisonment.
‘We (the band) talked about how the words from ‘Man Don’t Cry’ (a track from our number one album COLOUR released back in 1991) couldn’t be more appropriate in describing the Ratcliffe’s distressing predicament … We talked ourselves out of it thinking the band’s profile wasn’t big enough to make a difference and the years rolled on … but after seeing Richard Ratcliffe recently on his 21 day hunger strike, we just couldn’t bear NOT to do anything and decided to take action and record ‘Naz Don’t Cry’ with proceeds going to REDRESS (an international human rights organisation who seek justice for victims of torture and secured diplomatic protection in UK for Nazanin).
On December 1st Garry and band members Joey Ankrah & Neil Griffiths from THE CHRISTIANS, writer Henry Priestman, accompanied by Richard Ratcliffe and his & Nazanin’s daughter Gabriella all recorded the track at Coastal Sound studios in Liverpool (with all parties including studio owner Tim Speed agreeing to waive all fees.) … You can hear even hear Richard and Gabriella on the end backing vocals.
‘As these words say …. We only hope she knows that there are people here who care ..the song is just to deliver the simple message that we are all still standing shoulder to shoulder with Nazanin, her devoted husband Richard and beautiful daughter Gabriella … It’s absolutely desperate that after all these years she STILL hasn’t been released back to her family … if only this song could help in some tiny way.’ said Garry Christian.
‘Naz Don’t Cry’, is released on Island Records available for download on iTunes and all UK music platforms.

The christians most underrated band in music industry pure brilliance never stop making music lads.
Me big time 😂
2024😎
Me !
This song impressed me very much in the 1990s. It was a time of dominance of VHS and I remember how I record my favorite songs from television broadcasts on the video cassette. And this song, on that old cassette, headed a list of my favorite songs. What an interesting life was at the time before the Internet and various other things appeared, such as MP3. The author of this song, I want to say that it was wonderful and very beautiful!
Souvenirs, souvenirs
Pedazo de grupo se me ponía la piel de gallina cuando los escuchaba cuanta emoción
Me x
Il a une bonne sacré quand même
J'avais 10 12 ans mince, restons poli
Maravillosa canción, siempre que la oigo me pone los pelos de punta.
Heard this yesterday whilst stuck on the M25. Something good came out of that. This superb song ❤
What a superb voice and superb words and music .Thank you Gary for youre beautiful songs .
My favourite is towards the end of this song which was sadly missed out in this video.
Lovely song. Very moving and meaningful.
❤❤

This band was fantastic
Ajit Asomull now Singapore Gilbert City introduced me to this Holy music 🎵🎶🎵 over 36yrs ago,,,
When he was in Lagos Nigeria
Play this together with "Ideal World" and you've got the best duo of lyrics in history. All on the same original album, too. The ultimate "feel good" pair,
2024..... still a beautiful tune ❤❤❤
Kevsi!

Pas mauvais cet Éric Judor...
Love the christians , brilliant version, love them since they came out first, seen them once here in Dublin and will see them on Sunday 2nd june in st anns park Dublin, can't wait 💚👍🎸🍀
They were incredible today in Dublin
Wow wow wow 👌 loved this song in 1987 as a 14 year old boy, now in 2024 im 51 and this song is just unbelievably good, the lyrics are amazing 👏 I remember my dad who hated pop music in the 80s singing along to the chorus when the video was on tv 📺 such a great band and superb vocals, class song ❤
Amazing cool music 😮
I saw them recently. They were sooo good.
Great songs stand the test of time
Une des premières chansons qui m'a trouble ❤😢😢😢😢😢😢
This is phenomenal. Went to listen to my 2nd favourite song ever and you just topped the original ❤
Shame on Durham prison and Low Newton for slave labour of prisoners for profit of rich Ocardo
Still listening 24.5 24
the christians exploded on to the music scene in the late 80s and suddenly disappeared never to be heard from again- weird
Co za delikatna i wysmakowana Muzyka! Dzielę się nią z innymi!
