This
"oh so smooth" Christmas tune only managed to reach #53 in the UK charts in
1988, which I find quite incredible for such a decent track. I can just picture myself driving along to this one with a car full of presents and a Christmas tree on the trailer. Except I haven't got a trailer, but maybe one day! Thankfully, the re-release in 2007 peaked at #33. A bit better, but it still deserved the top ten, at least. The song performed best in Norway
(those Norweigans know a good song when they hear one) where it reached #2 in 2008. Other big 80's hits by Chris Rea were The Road to Hell which peaked at #10 in the UK in 1989, and Let's Dance which was a #12 hit in the UK during 1987. |
