KING OF THE BEACH, the album from Chris Rea, features the title single and “Still Beautiful.“ Released October 2, 2000. It's one of his best albums and is a return to form after the film soundtrack La Passione and the more electronic sounds of The Road to Hell Part 2. Written primarily during a vacation in the Turks and Caicos Islands, it's replete with lots of beach and summer imagery in the titles (“King of the Beach,“ “All Summer Long,“ “Sandwriting,“ “Sail Away“) as well as the lyrics, which were originally written as poems. A remix of “All Summer Long“ was a big dance hit in Ibiza and other Mediterranean hot spots. A good album for a summer day, with a soulful mellowness flowing through the tracks. ~ Rob Caldwell.

Средь моментов верениц- Счастья редкостных страниц, Каждый- как снежинок танец, Как кусочек памяти. В дымке тех ушедших дней, Что прошли в том старом городе, С тихим взглядом из- под ресниц Ты с улыбкою идёшь ко мне. И ты всё ещё красива, Ты всё ещё красива, В холоде белой ночи Ты сверкаешь ярче прочих, Всё ещё красива. Холодный ветер- сожалею, И не позволит он мне быть. Твоя улыбка- я так верю Даст шанс меня освободить. И ты всё ещё красива, Ты всё ещё красива, В холоде белой ночи Ты сверкаешь ярче прочих, Всё ещё красива. Dedicated to my precious and beautiful one! You are the one with which I want to grow old... Lots of people do not like growing old. Trust me, many people do not get the opportunity!!!
