Christopher Anton Rea (pronounced Ree-ah), born 4 March 1951, is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist from Middlesbrough, England. Rea's recording career began in 1978. Although he almost immediately had a US hit single with "Fool (If You Think It's Over)", Rea's initial focus was on continental Europe, releasing eight albums in the 1980s. It wasn't until 1985's Shamrock Diaries and the songs "Stainsby Girls" and "Josephine," that UK audiences began to take notice of him.

The Road To Hell - (4:30) - 12,730 playsLyricsWell I'm standing by a river but the water doesn't flow
It boils with every poison you can think of
And I'm underneath the streetlight but the light of joy I know
Scared beyond belief way down in the shadows
And the perverted fear of violence
