      Spot on. With a bracing does of social commentary and grit added for good measure. A major success in the eighties who made their mark.

    I admire the progression between Forgotten Town (no hope), Ideal World (hopeful) and What's In a World, a realistic, inspiring and uplifting ballad to a realistic hope of dealing to prejudice.
    Wonderful and inspiring contrbution to music and human thought.
    Brilliant!

    I remember listening to the album 20 times a day! Used to be a big big fan and saw them live at a big free concert in my city of Bordeaux in 93... I was only 13 by then!!!!!aaaah good memories!

    • @eightiesmusic1984
      @eightiesmusic1984 Před 2 lety

      They were popular in France. My wife is French and told me. She said Words was very popular. She is from near Marennes in Charente Maritime, two hours from Bordeaux. We live near Liverpool; The Christians were one of a number of bands from the city who were successful in the 1980s. I think the Celtic tinge to some of their music might partly explain their popularity in France.

    A song more relevant now in 2022 than in 1992, with the war in Ukraine, " give peace a chance"
    Superb! Band, harmonies, all genuine musicians that has lyrics no other band seems to have.
    Fair play to Gary Christian and Liverpool.

    what's in a word by The Christians was one of my favourite songs growing up, just an awesome feel good tune. Poetic and meaningful lyrics with a momentum that can't help but move your heart, soul and body :-) Not sure I can see the link between this video and non-believers burning in hell. To wish that on others when their only crime is not to agree with your own beleifs is........ Questionable and arrogant. Jesus would've had something to say about religious intolerance had he been here, now to say it.
