Lyrics
Some girls used to kiss and run
Never knew what they had done
Some girls always wasted time
Keep you hanging on the line
Some loved horses and always stayed at home
But the Stainsby girls loved the Rolling Stones
Now some had games that you had to play
Making rules along the way
Strange attractions newly found
Pride and passion kicked around
Some girls stole your heart
Like most girls do
But a Stainsby girls could break it in two
And I fell in love, I fell in love
I fell in love with a Stainsby girl
Deepest water Stainsby blue
Names and faces fade away
Memories here to stay
And I fell in love, I fell in love
I fell in love with a Stainsby girl
#ChrisRea #StainsbyGirls

My dad was a policeman in Cleveland police back in the late 60’s early 70’s. One of his duties was at times to supervise the crossing where the pupils crossed to get to Stainsby school, and to this day I feel a connection to this beautiful song.

A small part of Middlesbrough (Stainsby school) will be forever imortalised by this song.....Chris, youre a true smoggie!! ✊

@peterfuhrmann5033 Ай бұрын

You can't beat the "Smoggies" - great respect for these "Working Class" people. Just got on with life - that was their lot. Brian Clough, Chris Rea - what "Legends". Brian Clough mentions Chris & his family in his book. Peter from Australia.

Chris wrote this song about his wife Joan.He chased her all round till she became his girl......she went to the Stainsby academy girls school.The Lyrics are so true....!!!!!! "Some girls steal your heart....most still do!!!!! But a Stainsby Girl could break it in two!!!"

A real musician playing real instruments. Pure joy. Not about himself trying to put a message out about himself, just great music put out there to enjoy. Yes, maybe a comment, but about life, not some egocentric such as Sam Smith or Billie Eilish or whatever they are.

@zak88516 Жыл бұрын

It's about the girls from Stainsby School. The video shows you them dressing up and going to a nightclub. Chris said in an interview that the Stainsby Girls always went out with older boys who took them to nightclubs. He said he and his school mates were in love with them but the girls just thought they were immature schoolkids. How times change. Now they all act like immature schookids even into their thirties lol.

Chris, pure genius. I've followed you for...ever. I've seen you twice, in Austria and...I don't even remember it was so long ago. Tbh I've not seen this video before. An obvious 80's classic when video producers went overboard on the literal meaning of your lyrics, in the style of Dire Straits' 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Tunnel of Love'. 'Bluest water, Stainsby blue' accompanied by a shot of..erm...blue ocean water is a classic snippet of the time. I learnt to play air guitar on this track and now I'm an expert in 80's air guitar...sadly, it doesn't pay as well as the real thing... ;)

Have to agree. A lot of the re-recordings on "New Light Throught Old Windows" sounded more like the finished product (e.g. On The Beach, which gained a guitar riff which is now the songs signature feature, or Driving Home For Christmas with the piano which is missing from the original), but Stainsby Girls had all it needed first time around.

Sometimes I've kind the sensation this man knew me deeply already before I was born. Being born in 2006 I'm discovering just now all of his songs, and it looks like he anticipated me hundreds of times, from arrangements to songwriting. Songs like this are very emotional for a teen boy like me... I think Chris should be considered at the same level of Elvis, Michael Jackson, Bob Dylan, Freddie Mercury, The Rolling Stones or The Beatles... he just deserves way more fame than he had. I wish my generation could appreciate this music... they have all ways to listen to it and instead they enjoy some sounds that you can neither define music. Sounds that will die soon, differently from these songs, that instead are going to be eternal 👌🏻✊🏻😏
